The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World



Aiden regretted using the potion like that but he didn't have another choice if he didn't want to be noticed by the guards. 

·ƈθm He wanted to keep it so that he could steal the materials for the Elixir but I guess life wasn't meant this way.

There were literally no other options for him, the only way to advance in the castle was to go through this hallway.

He was now on the stairs and there didn't seem to be any guards close to him, so he decided to go upstairs, maybe the generals would be there in their room.

As he reached the top of the stairs, there was another hallway with multiple doors on each side with names written on them probably indicating which rooms belonged to which person.

There were many names but obviously didn't have the names of the two generals that he had seen in the garden.

'How am I going to know which door to open, there's too many,' complained in his mind. 'I should have asked for their names Alex, I'm sure he would have given them to me.'

Alex would have probably given them to him given his personality which seemed to have a certain toward those individuals.

Maybe he told him that the rooms they were in were easy to spot because their names are written onto it, but it wasn't simple for someone who didn't know their names. 

Hell, he didn't even know the name of the Upsilon Empire.

The first thing he knew was that the generals were not females, so any door with a girl's name written on it didn't have to be checked by Aiden.

'I think the only option I have is to open each door slowly and check who is sleeping there,' thought Aiden as he knew what the faces of two out of the three generals looked like.

He also gambled on the fact that the system would tell him if he was looking at generals just like he had done earlier today.

So, he decided to open silently each door as he took extra care so as to not wake up people inside their rooms.

He hadn't used the potion of invisibility just to be noticed once he was so close to his goal.

The first door he came across had the name, Sylvia Brown, on it. Seeing that it was a girl, he simply passed by the door and went toward the other one.

The next one was written the name Alex Foster which was obviously the name of the guy he met outside so he simply went to the other door once again.

The third door had a name that he had never seen before and it was also a boy's name. It was written the name Jacob Miller on it.

It was now time for Aiden to try and open the door without making too much noise.

He was trying is hardest as he turned the doorknob as slowly as possible, then a small clicking noise was heard which meant that he had succeeded in opening the door.

*Click*

Aiden slowly walked in and tried to see the face of the man who was sleeping peacefully.

The guy was in his bed his face turned the other way which made it difficult for Aiden to see it.

The body of the man was also covered by sheets and it was dark which made it impossible for Aiden to figure it out just by his figure.

Having no other choice, he started walking to the other side of the bed, slowly, not wanting to wake the guy as that would simply ruin everything he had done to get there.

As he was creeping up onto the other side of the bed, the man who was supposed to be asleep started talking.

"Bwahshda, shkling, slash," 

'What the hell is he saying?' thought Aiden as he got scared for a second that Jacob had woken up and was going to see him.

But he was just sleep-talking as he clearly had no idea that anyone was in his room preparing themselves to kill him.

This reassured Aiden that he hadn't lost touch with his movement and that he was still as silent as in his previous life.

He was now on the other side of the bed and he could finally get a clear picture as to what this person looked like.

And then, just like before a beeping sound was heard inside the mind of Aiden.

*Beep*

[You have detected one of the generals that you need to kill.]

Seeing this, he got his dagger ready immediately he started preparing a strike that would directly go into the neck of the general.

*Slash*

This scene in which he would swiftly kill somebody in a single strike made him remember his past when people were calling him the Reaper and were scared of what he would do.

Those were good memories at least for Aiden, but they got ruined when he got betrayed by Jack.

A beeping sound was heard as the head of Jacob Miller hit the ground.

*Beep*

[You have killed a general.]

[You have gained 1000 XP.]

[You need 200 XP to level up.]

[You have no gained points from the kill since you are alone in this trial.]

[The <Trial Objective> is progressing.]

[You now need to kill the two other generals and the boss which will be revealed after completing the <Trial Objective>.]

Aiden started watching all those messages from the system and was extremely happy to see them as it meant that he would soon be able to go back.

All he needed to do was to repeat what he just did two times and then he would have to fight the Boss of this trial which would surely be his hardest fight.

Then, he left the room of Jacob and started walking to the next one.

Inside the room was now the head of Jacob on the ground decapitated as blood kept flowing out of his body.
