Chapter 816 Cap 814: Kidnapping An Assassin
Pov An Assassin’s:
But what was it?
I was following them since the morning and I heard them saying about going to one of the Dungeons, I even heard the floor of the Dungeon where they were going, I went ahead to wait for them.
But I didn’t expect them to notice my attack, plus the way they blocked my attack demonstrated a level of power that made me worried.
“Damn, they’re clearly above Catastrophe Lesser Grade, the kid didn’t even try to defend himself and still almost found me.” (I)
If I didn’t have that detection item I wouldn’t have discovered those lines in time, the decision to run was the best I had.
Unfortunately, my plan B will also fail, I managed to lure that troublesome immortal Floor Boss, I wanted to lure them further into the floor first, but as I had to flee earlier than expected, I had no choice but to use the Floor Boss to divert the their attention from me.
“They were still close to the safe room, when they realize how impossible that pile of snow is to defeat, they will be able to escape easily…” (I)
Sigh
My only two plans failed, but at least I know this job is above my level, I’ll go find that idiot and leave everything to him, Victor can take care of him with ease.
I run straight to my hideout, a room underneath a clothing store as soon as I enter I lock the door while activating the alarm, I’d like to activate a barrier, but these things can draw attention, so it’s better without barriers.
“I have to think of a new escape plan, my mission failed, but before I have to find Victor tonight, I have to tell you that this boy has a high chance of being our target.” (I)
———
I spent a few hours inside the room waiting for the moment to meet Victor, but something was making me uneasy.
“(Why won’t this feeling go away!?)” (I)
During my wait, an uncomfortable feeling grew inside my mind, I felt watched all the time, but I already confirmed that I was not followed before arriving at this hiding place, the detection item also did not capture any Aura, magic, Ki, or vital energy, so why doesn’t this feeling go away?
I look at the clock, and seeing that it’s already close to the scheduled time, I’m ready to leave, and I left the store like any other customer wearing normal clothes.
I choose to enter through empty streets or alleys so as not to focus on the crowd, my detection item would be of no use if I was walking through the main streets.
“But what…” (I)
“We got you…”
Suddenly my detection item notices two people following me, but before I can do anything someone wearing a mask with electrical sparks emanating from the body appears in front of me, I try to dodge, but I find that the punch was a feint and my neck was trapped by a metal collar.
After that, the person who had appeared in front of me put his hand on my face and I felt like I had been struck by lightning, there was electricity running through my entire body causing great pain, so I lost consciousness.

Pov Kira:
“We put on the suppression collar, which we do now.” (I)
“We do it.” (Elsaris)
Elsaris points to the side and gives the shadow of a building to a large Dragon head comes out and swallows us, soon we appear inside the safe room on the first floor of the Dungeon.
“Didn’t know Nix was coming along.” (I)
“She’s our escape route, let’s get this one out of here for Lilith to interrogate.” (Elsaris)

Pov An Assassin’s:
I broke up with Riley yesterday and go back to my room in an Adventurer hotel, in this type of place many Adventurers create barriers to protect their temporary rooms or set up magical alarms to guard their belongings, so my defensive measures do not draw anyone’s attention.
“Let’s go over this information from the beginning.” (I)
I start going over the information of the 5 targets, I look at the appearance of the 5 boys, all have red hair of different shades, 3 are wearing masks, 4 have brown skin while 1 has a body too hidden to confirm, all have horns, also the Aura of 2 of them is weird.
“One of these is Riley’s target, I can’t get a clear idea of ??their strength.” (I)
The two are hiding their Auras, but they don’t seem to be stronger than me, I’ll let Riley test his target if he dies better, but if he’s stronger I have confidence in Riley’s judgment.
“I’ll get the other suspicious kid first, then I’ll deal with the others.” (I)

Pov Zenos:
The next day I’m at an amazing coffee shop, it’s actually just a street food stall that sells coffee, so Kira along with me.
“I still don’t understand why you don’t like coffee.” (I)
“Why would I drink something so bitter?” (Kira)
“You can put sugar.” (I)
“Then I’d rather have a glass of juice, much better in this heat.” (Kira)
“It’s not that hot…” (I)
I look around down the street noticing even most people are wearing less clothes than they were yesterday, plus many are covered in sweat.
“Let’s get to the main subject, did you get anything from our guest?” (I)
“Yes, member of the Assassins’ Guild, it appears there is a contract for your head.” (Kira)
“Do you know who placed that contract?” (I)
“The Guild doesn’t divulge the applicants for the contracts, but we can assume it’s the Church of Light.” (Kira)
“How did she manage to lie to Nix when we found her the first day?” (I)
“She didn’t lie, he put himself into a hypnosis using a mind magic item with a temporary effect, so she believed she was telling the truth that day.” (Nix)
“Find out anything else?” (I)
“She works with a man named Victor, but she knows that name is false, he also took that contract and seems to be much stronger than her.” (Kira)
“Before you ask, she doesn’t know how much stronger he is exactly, it seems that besides him they will eliminate 4 more boys with characteristics similar to you.” (Kira)
“They don’t know my identity?” (I)
“Apparently not.” (Kira)
“Other than that we don’t have any more useful information.” (Kira)
“Kill her after Lilith is finished.” (I)
“What will we do?” (Kira) .
“Nothing, let’s act normal, if we run away after she disappears we’ll attract attention, let’s act normal and leave in a few days.” (I)
