Meanwhile, in a different location, in the Far East empire, the imperial city, a figure clad in a black cloak was sneaking towards a certain house in the middle of the night.

From the outside, this house looks warm and cozy. It has been built with spruce wood and has burgundy brick decorations. Tall, half-rounded windows brighten up the house and have been added to the house in a very asymmetric way.

The house is equipped with a small kitchen and three bathrooms, it also has a spacious living room, four bedrooms, a roomy dining room, a study, and a grand garage.

The building is shaped like a short U. The two extensions extend into wooden overhanging panels to each side.

The second floor is smaller than the first, which allowed for a roof garden on one side of the house. This floor follows the same style as the floor below.

The roof is high and v-shaped and is covered with wheat straw. Two small chimneys sit at the side of the house. A few large windows let in just enough light to the rooms below the roof.

The house itself is surrounded by a modest garden, with mostly grass, a few flower patches, and a children's playground.

Guards were guarding this house.

Even though there were guards, they couldn't seem to detect the aura of the figure, nor did the barrier seem to block them.

Even with a cloak on, one could see that the person wearing it was not that tall, nor did they have a big body frame.

The cloaked figure soon sneaked its way around the house until they reached an open window as if the owner of the room was inviting someone to jump through it.

Without any hesitation, the cloaked figure jumped inside through a window big enough to fit a person.

"Finally...took you long enough to get your ass here…" A darkened voice sounded in the dim room. Because of the nightlight, it was barely enough to reveal the owner of the voice sitting on the bed with a black cloak completely covering their body, including their face.

The cloaked figure who jumped in through the window kneeled apologetically and removed their hood to reveal a pretty girl. But her eyes carried a different look that didn't seem to match her age or appearance.

She spoke emotionlessly, "Forgive me, your highest the second prince. Next time I won't be late," She decided not to tell the real reason since it would only further antagonize the person in front of her.

"Whatever, but do you know why I summoned you, the infamous Dark shadow?"

Itsuki Jr questioned, his tone still sounding moody and dull.

Upon hearing her title, Dark shadow looked up slowly and said flatly, "I presume it's become your highest has a secret mission for me. As long as the target is a woman, young miss need not worry about anything. I can get it done."

Itsuki Jr raised her hand, "Not so fast. I know you are the most deadly and tricky assassin out there who never failed to assassinate your target but is also quite expensive enough to even bore a hole in my pocket if I paid for your services. And that's why I need you to use your complete expertise for this mission."

The second prince was stating the fact. The name of Dark shadow was enough to make even some Saint realm experts tremble with fear.

The reason was this assassin was an expert who had mastered the art of disguise to almost perfection. She could even fool Saint realm experts and quickly assassinate them while lowering their guard down by pretending to be someone else.

Rumors say that despite disguising putting on the disguise of different women, she may not be a woman at all, but of course, those rumors were baseless.

All they knew was that she put on different masks that belonged to different people. And if someone saw her in action, they would be quite astounded to see her perfectly pretending to be someone else.

He knew her current face of a pretty girl was not even really her true appearance.

Itsuki Jr obviously wouldn't be able to afford the services of such an assassin on his own, not without his uncle's help.

He had no idea how strong Dark shadow was or how old she was though there were rumors that she was in the Demigod realm.

Itsuki Jr, however, did not really care about those details. Just knowing the impeccable track record of the Dark shadow was enough for him.

Dark shadow nodded, "Of course. For every single mission, I don't hold back on my skills. Your highest can rest assured I wouldn't be complacent no matter how weak or strong the target is unless they are at the Demi-God Realm. I hope that is not the case," She said with a probing look.

Itsuki Jr let out a sardonic chuckle, "Hehehehe! Demigod Realm? I don't think so, that girl only joined them recently and her name is Noire.''

Dark shadow's brows raised a bit but were not completely surprised as she could see the obvious enmity the second prince had against Alex for having something he couldn't.

"If it's only her, then it's doable, and I would need a week at most. But if it's her master, it's impossible as he is too strong.''

Itsuki Jr scoffed, "Hah, seems like even the great Dark shadow is afraid of someone indeed. But fret not, you don't have to do anything to him. The only one I want is that girl.''

Dark shadow frowned, "You want me to kidnap her? That would be more troublesome since my expertise is in assassinations and getting away."

She wanted to make sure the second prince was aware of her abilities and the missions she usually took. Dark shadow even forgot the last time she kidnapped someone since all of her assignments only ended with her killing off her targets discreetly without any suspicions at all.

"Troublesome? Maybe. But for a person like you, it's not impossible right?"

Itsuki Jr said in a tone of certainty. He was smirking in secret.

Dark shadow looked straight and slightly nodded. Indeed, thinking about it, she just would have to take some extra effort to drop Noire at the second prince's feet.

She wasn't worried about this mysterious woman, she might be strong but surely not stronger than her. With her special item, all she had to do was seal the later strength, which was something she always does before she kills her targets, even if they are weaker than her, just to be safe. The premise is that Noire wasn't a Demigod.

''Don't worry, the mission will be carried.'' Dark shadow promised.

Upon hearing this Itsuki Jr smiled, seeing that it wasn't a problem for Dark shadow. Since he was making exceptional use of favor to use her services, she didn't know how many conditions she could ask from her. But fortunately, it seemed like Dark shadow didn't mind following through with his requirements.

She disappeared shortly after receiving the first payment.

'Hmph, I wonder how my uncle is going to repay this favor,' Itsuki Jr inwardly thought as he had already informed him about her plan. Well, it could be said that it was his uncle's doing.

He didn't want to be the only one who was involved in this whole sinister idea. He wanted a companion in case things went south and who could be a better partner in crime than his uncle?

Itsuki Jr, however, didn't think about any possible consequences at all as his current mental state was only this close to becoming completely mad. His thought of revenge was the only thing holding him back from letting everything loose. Especially after what his father had said to him. After their last conversation Itsuki Jr understood that his father never loved him, he did not resent his sister Saeko because from what his uncle told him, all of this was Alex's doing, he had to take revenge on him and solution Itsuki Jr found was to kidnap one of Alex's group member to lead him to a certain location specified by his uncle who by the way made it possible for Itsuki Jr to become a Saint realm, he could become more if he successfully succeeded in carrying out this mission.

'I will slowly but surely take everything from you, Alexander, your women will be mine. No, everything will be mine. Even this empire, this continent, the entire world will be mine as I'm supreme.'

Itsuki Jr was too focused on his delusion to notice that there was a shadow watching his every move and after making sure that this fool faithfully carry the mission assigned to him, this shadow disappeared.

The owner of this shadow was none other than Conrad, Itsuki Jr's uncle, Michael's Itsuki Ren brother.

This man is working for a certain organization.
