Chapter 579
C579
Dante's request to Nameless was to assassinate the Emperor and bring back his head.
He wanted to capture the Emperor alive if possible, but Owal assigned Yona as the assassin to kill the Emperor.
Owal was concerned that no Assassin could find and kill the Emperor faster than her, and he worried that the imperial family would secure the Emperor's whereabouts before Nameless' sword could reach him.
This was the reason why Owal refused to capture the Emperor alive.
Yona had an assassin skill that surpassed even himself, but she was unable to control it.
There was no way she would let the Emperor live after seeing him in person.
After all, the Emperor's attack on Hairan threatened not only the Empire but also Yona's dear little brother, Jin.
Unfortunately, Dante had no choice but to accept the condition for the same reason as Owal.
