Unfathomable Doomsday

In a luxurious manor, where you can overlook the entire city.

The light emitted by the shimmering fluorite illuminates this well-ordered study room.

On the desk is a goblet that looks out of place with the surrounding environment.

A reddish liquid sloshed in the goblet.

This kind of wine is not expensive, or it belongs to some kind of inferior category, and it is completely unsuitable to appear in such a luxurious manor.

After having a high enough status and having enough wealth, what you get is more of a kind of tiredness, a sickly tiredness.

After enjoying more top-notch things, it is actually a different kind of fun to try those lower-level existences.

Lisner thought so.

As the leader of the empire's first business family, Lisner felt that his sense of taste was almost eroded by those so-called famous wines.

He picked up the wine glass and walked to the window. The entire buried city was brightly lit, and people were busy rebuilding their homes.

"What's wrong?" Lisner suddenly asked the empty room.

In the study room, a figure quietly emerged from the shadows and stood behind Lisna. The gray robes smelled like sewers, and the sound of gears turning in the metal mask like a skeleton was heard slowly.

"mission failed."

The rough sound was harsh, like fingernails rubbing against steel, making people feel chills all over.

"Won't people who are targeted by the "undertaker" never see the sun of the next day? "

Lisner's voice was calm, and his eyes continued to stare at the city below in the night.

"Failed twice in a row, those who gave death as gifts, don't you have enough death inventory?"

"There was an error in the estimation of the target." The voice was still rough, and one could hear the urge to be mad: "There is an unknown existence, secretly protecting the target."

"Protection?" Lisner stopped shaking the wine glass: "Who is it? In this world, apart from saints, who can refuse the death you bestow?"

"Insufficient information, "Grave Digger" was killed in secret, "Grave Digger" was killed by the target piercing through the heart, but it is certain that he was disturbed before his death. "

"Did the number of assassination organizations that are frightening drop from five to three all of a sudden?"

Lisna finally turned around and looked at the figure that seemed unable to be illuminated by even the light.

"How many years have you group of immortal ghosts been wandering in this world? How many lives have been lost along the way because of you? Now it's impossible to kill a little unknown girl?"

"The target rating is wrong. She, princess Naye Dodran is not an unknown princess."

A different emotion finally appeared in the rough voice, named anger.

"According to the current information, she was brought up by a saint who escaped from the court of the gods. She has a strange bloodthirsty symptom, but it disappears after adulthood. Now, the target is a knight who killed hundreds of monsters. .”

"Who is to blame?" Li Sina said indifferently: "If you hadn't failed in the first mission, that little girl would have died in obscurity, and there would be no more 'His Royal Highness', no more 'The hero who saved the city' or something like that, now things get tricky, Nai Ye? I know her name and the whole city knows her name."

Lisner put the wine glass by the window sill and looked at the crowd below.

"People in the whole city also remembered her name! Your Royal Highness Princess Nai Ye..."

"Do you want to continue the mission?" The other party ignored Lisner's exclamation and continued to ask formulaically.

Even if the assassination of this target has damaged two of their members.

"Continue, why not continue, even if you can even take on the task of assassinating the king, but I can't afford the money..."

The expenses that the people in power of the empire's first business family cannot afford, I am afraid that not many people in the whole world can afford it.

Lisner knew the madness of the organization in front of him. No one knew where they came from, and no one knew how many people they had in secret. People only remembered the metal skull mask and their name "Mourners"... Presented dead man.

You can hire them anywhere, and for enough money, they can kill anyone for you.

Even the current Emperor Dodran XXI, although the price of assassinating him was much lower because of his illness, Lisner knew that it was meaningless, since the death of the Emperor was only a matter of time anyway.

And now the unknown successor who popped up out of nowhere.

Only now everyone knows her name.

"The value has increased from 100 million to 10 billion. If there is no problem, then..."

"Ten billion?" Lisna frowned at this unbelievable number: "Even if the name is known by the whole city, it would be too rude to increase it by a hundred times."

This is not a small sum, and it is completely worth the family's one-year surplus.

"The difficulty is not in the target, but in the person who has been secretly protecting her by the target's side."

"Who on earth has let the princess escape under your hands several times? Is it the lord of the West, Prince Lordland, who is here? Or is the princess the queen of the "Ball of the Night" and the widow of the Emperor? The first knight has been following the Emperor's side, it is impossible to send him to secretly protect His Royal Highness! How many people in this world can stop you from sending death? Only about seven or eight, right? "

"There is another one today." He told Lisna without any disguise: "The person who secretly protects the target has the ability to hide the breath not weaker than ours. The "gravedigger" was cut off without any knowledge throat and died. "

"Being able to assassinate you... sounds really creepy."

"..."

Lisner sighed, and continued to stare at the city.

"How strong do you think that person is?"

"The level is at least the fifty-seventh floor of the tower at the top."

The tower at the top is a position recognized by everyone in the world to weigh how strong their own strength is.

It was established in the central capital. It is said that the dragon god created the building.

There are sixty floors in total! Every time you pass a level, you can have the power given by Lord Dragon God.

After reaching the fiftieth floor, they are all powerful people who can be called by name in this world.

And when you reach the sixtieth floor, you will have the position of a saint, be called into the court of the gods, and become a god-like existence.

"An existence that came out of nowhere, is it as powerful as the number one knight of the empire?"

Lisna suddenly felt that things became tricky, and it also became weird.

"Did you know? Today, the World of Warcraft Forest, which has been silent for a hundred years, once again let humans see its horror...Her Royal Highness turned the tide and repelled those monsters to protect the city."

"..."

"That's why that unknown little girl became famous." Lisner waved his hand to make him back away: "I don't think she can do such a thing, she is too young, and that kind of power is not what she should have Yes, one of the monsters killed Kenther Dodran, the commanding knight on the fiftieth floor of the tower at the top. No matter what, you are working hard for money, so go sell it, and I will pay another 10 billion. "

Lisner looked at the figure who disappeared in the shadows and continued.

"As long as you know which side is guarding Her Royal Highness in the dark."

After the figure disappeared...

"Come on." Lisner said in a low voice.

The door was opened, and a man in butler uniform walked in.

"Allow part of the funds to invest in urban reconstruction, and don't let people in this city forget the name of the Claure family."

"Understood, sir."

The housekeeper bowed slightly and stepped back.

"People in the shadows? This... is really scary."

Lisner drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.
