A masked man wearing black robes walked into a dark room, inside the room, there sat a single man, his face was covered by a mask as well.
Seeing the masked man walked into his room, the man sitting inside spoke,
"You are from?"
"Shadow Of Silence." The masked man replied.
"Ahh, have you decided? I gave you time to investigate your target, honestly, you came here faster than I thought, it is usually not a good sign.
Let me tell you in advance though, if you wish to reject the mission, then you are missing out. I know, the target is strong, and with your Hall's current capability, dealing with the target is not possible, however, you don't have to worry.
Honestly, this mission is a freebie, although it states you have to kill the target, in truth, you just have to send some people, we will be the ones doing everything.
I know, you must be thinking that why contact you in the first place, right?
Although I can't tell you the reason, just know that there is a reason behind it.
And don't worry about your safety, if you agree, we will proceed with definite contracts that ensure your safety.
Nothing will happen to you or your Assassination Hall members, you just need to be there and take the money.
So? How about it?
Will you be taking on this so-called mission?"
The man sitting on the chair questioned after a detailed explanation. Honestly, with the conditions he proposed, one would beg to take this mission.
However, deep down, he knew, not many people would accept this mission.
This reeked of trouble, after all. The conditions were just too good to be true.
So even if this man rejected the mission here, he wouldn't mind, he would just need to try his luck with some other Assassin Hall. Time was on his side, after all.
"The reward is too low."
Suddenly, the masked man spoke.
"Huh…?" The man sitting on the chair tilted his head in confusion.
"The reward. To assassinate a Saint with such a strong background, the reward is too less."
"W-W-What are you talking about?"
"Am I not clear enough? Increase the reward and we will accept the mission."
"W-What do you need?"
"An 11-Star Artifact."
"H-Huh?" The man couldn't believe what he heard.
He then looked at the masked man in front of him and,
"Y-You aren't even d-doing anything, we will be the ones doing everything. H-How can yo-"
The man wanted to retort, but then, the masked man threw something toward him.
The man caught it via instinct, however, soon, his body jolted in fear as he realized what it was.
It was a finger with a ring on it.
"W-W-What is it?"
"We have already captured the target, give me what we want, and we will kill her. Else we will simply set her free."
"Y-You already captured the t-target?" The man's eyes widened in shock.
"Why are you stuttering so much? Just decide already, do you accept my conditions or should I set the target free?"
"I-I cannot d-decide that o-on my own, I need to d-discuss it with my master."
"I believe what I have asked is a fair price."
"I-I still need to discuss it with the M-Master."
"Then next time, it would be better if your master came to me directly."
Saying those words, the masked man disappeared.
