The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Aiden moved like a ghost in front of the Nightshade Mansion, killing everyone watching the front door in minutes.

He moved in complete silence without anyone even spotting him once. He was lit a ghost, a Reaper. He moved with only a single thought in his mind…killing Lucius.

That was the only thing that mattered to him in his mind.

Everything else was secondary.

After eliminating the shadows protecting the entrance, Aiden sneaked right in, where he was met with one of the biggest halls he had ever seen in his life.

There were stairs on both sides, and he couldn't even see the end of the hall. The ceiling was also extremely high as he looked up.

The lights were shut, and he blended into the darkness perfectly.

He didn't feel the presence of anyone around him. It seemed that the security inside the mansion was a lot lower than outside of it.

There was only one other thing that he needed to figure out now that he was inside.

Aiden didn't even know if Lucius was inside the building. It was just a big gamble that he had taken because of how angry he had been hearing Emma's pain.

She deserved the revenge that he was about to give her. Aiden could feel it in his heart that she was hurt by his absence. He needed to do something to gain her trust back.

The time when she was left alone had been extremely hard on her, and she needed someone to help her out.

A light at the end of the tunnel… and that light would be Aiden.

No one else could take on that role except for him.

Climbing up the stairs like a ghost, Aiden found his way to the first floor, where he decided to roam around very quickly, wanting to see if there were any bedrooms. However, he quickly realized that there weren't any.

He continued his way, moving up to the next floor.

There, he found a few closed doors…

He couldn't see anything from the outside. So, he had no choice but to open them very carefully.

Still, that was no problem. Aiden realized that the only thing behind those doors was a bunch of storage rooms with a bunch of useless things lying around.

That's why he went up another floor…and it was already the last one, which meant that the Nightshade Family had to be sleeping here. Lucius had to be on this very floor.

Aiden was still as calm as in the past. He was used to those situations. The only difference being that he was going up against Lucius, the only person who had been close to his talent in the past.

The other thing that would be annoying when finding Lucius would be killing him without making the slightest noise. If Lucius were to wake up, then the entire plan would have to get thrown out the window.

Aiden couldn't be found out here after all this time.

Everyone in the entire world thought that he was dead at the moment. No one had seen him for the past five years, and he needed to keep this element of surprise. He simply had no choice.

He still remembered Jake telling him not to screw it up.

Everyone had gone through a lot, and he needed to control his emotions this time. He needed to keep calm just like he did in the past.

'Emotions are only a distraction…' He thought, thinking back to Jack's words during his intense assassin training.

And then, Aiden moved.

He was faced with a lot of different rooms. However, something was different…there were shadows everywhere on this floor. However, they weren't placed everywhere. They were protecting two rooms in particular, and they were the ones at the end of the hallway.

The two biggest rooms from the looks of it.

Aiden had no other way to disappear other than to use [Camouflage], which is exactly what he did…vanishing from the face of the Earth, moving toward them.

He couldn't even see the shadows. They were much better than the ones he had seen outside. Whoever was sleeping behind those doors was extremely powerful. There wasn't a single doubt in Aiden's mind about that.

He couldn't see the shadows, but he could feel them.

It was different, but it didn't change anything for Aiden. He would still be the one killing them without them even noticing.

They might be the best at assassination in this world. But Aiden had been the best in a different one.

The shadows were hiding on the left…the right, over him, under him. They were everywhere, and Aiden needed to kill them all before he was to be found out. However, luckily for him, he had developed his mana during his training. He could stay hidden for a very long time.

A sparkle came off from his right shoe as he activated the movement technique he had learned from the Emberbane's member.

He moved so fast that he arrived right behind someone. He closed his eyes and tried to pinpoint where his neck was situated and sliced it like always.

He did this process over and over again without anyone noticing the slightest thing. They were all extremely focused on everything happening around them. However, Aiden was simply better than them.

After eliminating all the enemies guarding those two doors, he decided to open the right door.

'Who will be…?' Aiden thought.

He opened the door and spotted someone sleeping comfortably. However, he wasn't alone. There were at least five women with him inside the bed.

Aiden looked at his figure and recognized him straight away.

It was Sylas, Lucius's Father. The leader of the opposite side.

Seeing him sleeping so comfortably made Aiden want to kill him right away.

He looked defenseless right now. Aiden was almost sure that he could kill him without him reacting. However, he couldn't take on that gamble. He couldn't screw everything up.

That's why he closed the door without making any noise and opened the one in the other room, and what he saw reminded him of a strange memory.

It was when he met Lucius in the trial during the Inter-Family Tournament.

There were no beds inside.

The only thing he found in that room was someone… looking at the ground who looked disinterested in everything surrounding him.

The moment the door opened, Lucius's eyes also opened as they stared right into Aiden's, whose face was hidden by his Reaper Mask.

"You're finally here," Lucius muttered quietly as a giggle escaped his mouth.
