Chapter 68
Invitation from Darkness (1)
In the course of about five months, I destroyed the northern frontier branch of the Assassins’ Guild.
It was winter when I left my master’s place, but the season had already passed through spring into an early summer, and one more season would pass, when I would turn nine years old.
Having destroyed the assassin’s guild, I left Count Hadel’s territory, where the Northern Frontier Branch was located, on that very day and headed for Baron Nolf’s territory, which was next to the Count’s territory on the Dandol frontier.
That noble was the client whose relics were taken by the Mercenary of Dawn I had assassinated.
It was not that I simply awakened and became an assassin, but…
The relic….as a person who had lost my parents in an accident, I felt that it was something special, and I wanted to return it to the owner if possible.
*Charari…
“…”
I took out the necklace from the [Shadow Storage] in the palm of my hand and looked at it.
Tears of the Spirits… They were very rarely obtained from defeated spirits, and were also treated as jewelry. Since the original was a highly pure magic stone, it could be used as a talisman with a simple magic circle.
Because of this, the price of Tears of Spirits was high. There had even been a series of accidents in which those, who had tried to hunt spirits by intentionally making them mad, had been struck back and died. The Fandria Dharma State, which was the headquarters of the Church, had decided that not only selling, but even possessing Tears of Spirits was a crime.
