The screen happened to scroll to the victims' pictures. The crscene was gory.
Sof them were skinned, while sof them were dismembered. It was a bloodlust pervert who loved torturing massacres.
It was so appalled that Olivia was questioning if she should approach this kind of person.
In fact, she didn't want to get close to a mentally ill person. He was an obssessive pervert.
"Can I reject this mission?"
"Do you wanna miss the chance to meet our boss?" Undecim gave her a backward glance.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis mysterious gaze cwith an ambiguous smile. "Aren't you a hardcore fan of our boss? If this is a mission success, we'll becthe best employee of the year. You know that he personally gives out the awards at the ceremony.”
She massaged her forehead. She had almost forgotten about it.
When she first joined The Black Ravens, she asked about the boss to figure out the mastermind.
Someone caught on, so she made up a story that she had admired the boss for a long time.
To make her story stand, she purposely showered the boss with praise in front of everyone all these years.
It was a peculiar rule at The Black Ravens to hold a ceremony every three years.
She worked hard to hold the best records because that was her only chance to meet the boss.
During a mission she had with Undecim, he inquired about her reason for joining the organization.
She answered it without much thought. Who knew that he would remember?
Olivia let a sigh escape. "Do you think it's that easy? How can I meet someone as legendary as the boss?"
"Are you that desperate to meet him? He's the boss of an assassin organization. No matter what you think of him, he's still a bad guy.” "What do you even know? There are a lot of mercenary soldiers and assassin organizations in this world. How many of them can climb to the top? Don't you think he's cool?
“To think that he owns so many skillful assassins beneath him. He's like the big devil in the movies. Cool!" Her hands clasped together in admiration.
Undecim gave her a long, serious stare. "That's weird of you. You have a clean-cut MO and such naive thoughts at the stime."
"Naive?" Olivia chuckled lightly and shifted her attention to the monitor. "Everyone has a dream. That's all. My objective of joining The Black Ravens is to meet the boss. He's the motivation that drivesforward and the light that guidesthrough the road.”

She shook her head. “I'm not sleepy. I'll have to study him further to increase the chance of a successful mission. After all, he's the credit I need to meet the boss."
"You're a lost cause."
The road becrougher as the night sky dawned. The shaky journey prompted her to stare at the moon.
They reached the foot of the mountain soon. "We'll get out of the borders after this mountain.”
“Let's go."
"Behind this mountain is a war-torn country. The situation is worse recently. Better keep your kindness to yourself. I don't want a kid to join us again.”
Olivia saved a kid along their way during their last mission, and Undecim nagged her about it every single time.
"Got it."
The target this tround wasn't any ordinary person.
A single mistake was all it would take to cost her life.
