Applause Novel 24 Reaper's Leap

"Ha-ha-ha, light"

I snuck into the castle, teasing the eyes of the Kingsguard.

◇ ◇ ◇

Having fulfilled her vows to safely obey the princess, I was vigorously obsessed with gathering information. Unfortunately, I know very little about this country. As a helper to the Lord, it was not acceptable.

There was a desire to stay on the side as long as possible, but it is a breakdown in the name of the Hiyuma clan that I can't seem to help when I need it. The princess's house escort was like the ones who could use it there, and I trusted her there and I decided to move a lot on my own.

That's how I find out that there are a lot of vague things about this country.

It was the royalty that I didn't know particularly well.

Beyond a certain amount of research, the more unnatural the information suddenly becomes. My lord will be royal, and I wanted to find out if I could, but it's going to be hard to get any more information. You gave up and focused on gathering another piece of information.

One day. Somehow listening to the diving conversation behind the princess's ceiling raised the subject of the princess climbing to pick up her fiancée tomorrow.

What a princess's fiancée is the king prince of this country.

He's a man called the totally indestructible King Prince, and he's strong out of standard anyway. If it is a time of war, it is always this man who is at the forefront.

As for this guy, I only heard rumors when I was in Sahaja.

Because of this king prince, the king of Sahaja is attacking this country.

The Kingdom of Wilhelm, known as the Great East, is amazingly blessed with climatic conditions. More than anything else, I envy the fact that I have never been in a major natural disaster since the founding of my country.

Try from Sahaja, which occupies most of the national territory in the desert, the more land you want your hands out of your throat. Still, I didn't reach out because there was a king prince who biased that I could deal with 10,000 large armies on my own. 10,000 alone. Even if it's half talk, it's awesome.

If the princess is going to climb the castle, it's just fine. Sometimes I wanted to investigate the royal castle once, and I want to worship its mighty king Prince. I told the princess I was going to infiltrate first, and I did so in the course of the day.

◇ ◇ ◇

Move through the darkness to avoid making footsteps. Sometimes he hissed behind the ceiling, sometimes hiding behind columns, and I walked unbroken through the castle.

By signing with the princess and gaining the Lord, Hiyuma's secret tricks are always available. Unlike normal sorcery, Hiyuma's secret trick is to carve the sorcery formation directly into his eyes, so the strength is that the activation time is almost zero. It can be easily activated by simply stamping your hands.

When it was likely to reach the eyes, he did not hesitate to use secret techniques to transfer himself, or techniques that seemed assimilated to the walls.

When you can use secrets, you expand the range of things you can do. It's easy enough to sneak into the castle without having to use it, but it's a fact that it'll be even easier. I felt like I could even sing a nose song and I grasped the positional relationship accurately.

"Uh, that's the royal neighborhood..."

Walk while drawing a map in your head. It was already midnight in time.

Shin and quiet back in the castle. That's about as many Kingsguards around are on surveillance.

But for people like me, it's the easiest time to move.

It's easy to hide yourself, and no matter what you say, assassinate only at midnight. Humans are most defenseless while sleeping.

Where we're walking now, there's no guards either. Probably coming around later, but it'll be okay for a while now. I was walking slowly looking around.

"Hmm?"

Secondly, I feel slightly murderous and look back.

Of course there's no one there. Normally, you'd think it was your fault.

But I get it. A unique killer I felt for a moment... because I knew something similar to this.

- - My kind (Assassin) is in this place.

Though I thought about what to do, I spoke to them.

"... hey, where do you guys belong? I know you are. Come out."

◇ ◇ ◇

Talk about tapping and provoking the pattern of a dagger lowered to your hips. The place you're hissing on has an idea from earlier killings. If I turned to you on purpose to show you where I was, you gave up or one man appeared out of the darkness.

... just one person?

There were multiple signs, but only one came out.

……

Relative silently.

A man dressed to fit his body perfectly.

Unlike this country, the dark skin color looked familiar.

"... you, assassin of Sahaja (Assassin)"

When I told him to throw it away, the man looked at this one surprised.

I guess I was wondering why I found out. But as soon as he looked at me, he opened his eyes in amazement.

"You... are you kidding me, Red Reaper? Why are you here? You were not supposed to be dead!!

Move your eyebrows perfectly to the word.

"The Red Reaper." Two less happy names.

Knowing that is almost certainly Sahaja's guild official.

I discovered a black scarf on the man's hips, and then I found out which guild he belonged to.

"Yeah. Is that you, 'black'? How could 'black' be in here like this?

"It's none of your business."

Keep your posture low and put your hands on your hips if that's the case with the guy staring at you.

Even so, I couldn't help but notice what was going on around me.

...... there are still all of them.... one behind. The two have ceilings. The other one is behind the pillars there.

Seems like a lot of work.

Typically, the assassination takes place alone. Of course some people hire more than one person for certainty, but they don't normally. Because the cost is enormous, and it can hurt the assassin's pride.

What this means is that you can't be trusted on your own.

There was no way I could forgive such an insult from a person who worked (colossus) with admiration.

That's why I was surprised by the fact that 'black' was coming.

"Black" is now the top guild alongside "Red" without it.

Only pride makes this usage tolerable against high 'black'.

The first thing that came to mind was still the king of Sahaja.

If you were a king trying to hold 'red', it's no wonder you were carrying 'black' after 'red' was devastated. I don't know what you're trying to make me do until I use 'black' on purpose.

"I don't know who you're trying to kill, and I'm not interested.... Will you stay out of my way?

Then tell him to meditate on his eyes.

It doesn't matter who gets killed if the princess isn't in danger. You can do whatever you want. I didn't care who that king was trying to kill or what he was up to, but I stopped pursuing lightly, thinking I didn't care except for the Lord.

But the 'black' guys couldn't seem to do that.

"... don't think you'll really take the Red Reaper thing"

"Oh, yes... I see. I want to die."

Lift the edge of your lips.

I said I'd let him get away with the corner, but the man with the blade pointing this way.

It's so stupid it makes me laugh.

I avoided immediate killing once because the princess didn't seem to want me to kill much, but it didn't seem to make much sense.

If this happens, I'll have to kill him.

I pointed the blade, over there first. I mean, this is self-defense. And...

- The princess told me not to kill the Kingsguard, and...

They haven't told me not to kill the assassin.

Orders from the Lord are absolute, so we need to be sure around here.

... Yeah, there's nothing wrong with that.

Nodding back at the princess's words. And he was throwing a knife at a man who was taking it out in natural motion.

"Become! Ugh..."

"Weak. I don't know. Avoid it as much as you do now."

Dosari and the man fall.

Hit him hard. Aim for the steeple. Assassination can be one-to-many in a significant proportion if you are operating. For that reason, I was bound to kill my enemies with one blow. It's hard to get up because you think you've defeated him.

Having lightly defeated the man, I pulled out my sword with one hand as it was, poking it out of my mind toward the back. In that motion, a sword stabs the belly of the man who was about to cut from behind to me.

……

The man behind me collapsed without saying anything.

Pay the blood paste and turn your shoulders around. Oh, my God, 'black' isn't such a big deal.

"And the three of us? It's a hassle, so call me back. I'm not free either."

Taunted, the other three show up.

Seeing the men cut silently at the same time, I distorted my mouth.

"It's a hundred years early to beat me for getting the Lord"

◇ ◇ ◇

"Um, I wasn't surprised."

Sink the last one, and I wipe my favorite sword clean. I was a little worried about the end of the body but decided to leave it alone. They originally broke into the castle. There's no reason for me to do anything about it. The good news is that we can talk about it together.

Having lightly repelled the assassin who attacked me, I was exploring the castle again.

The first feeling of battle in a long time wasn't bad, but it wasn't good enough.

I want to fight a stronger opponent anyway.

"Even when it comes to 'black', they'll be on the bottom end..."

It's the same guild I belonged to, Red. There are naturally more powerful people than there are in other guilds, but some of them seem to be somewhat undeniably underpowered.

Of course "black" has two names similar to "red" ole.

I would have fought him anyway.

Reminds me of having two names: "Black".

"What the hell, it was definitely the name 'black traitor'..."

It hurts no less than the name of my 'Reaper'.

At the top of the 'black' guild, the gender is man.

He likes to wear things like black priestly clothes and always wears a rosary of reverse crosses.

That's about the amount of exterior information I know.

I guess I would have gotten more information if I had been more interested when I was on active duty, but I couldn't help it because it didn't matter.

The work of such a heretic is very famous in Sahaja.

The reason is simple.

Because his target is bound to take his neck.

All bodies found, no neck. There are no exceptions.

I don't know why you're doing that, but it seems to be his style since he started the assassin.

I can assume you're probably taking it back as proof that you definitely did, but I don't think it's sane shabbat.

It's pretty much because even the same guild assassin who happened to witness the execution threw up so much at the neck hunting scene.

I haven't met him yet, but I think he's the guy with a couple of screws off his head.

What I am called by the name of 'Reaper' or something else is ignored at this time.

In my case, it seems to have come from the story that "after going through, only the body remains", but I think they're going to say it's terrible.

If you're an assassin, it's natural to kill everything, even if it's troublesome.

I just did what I deserved, but I want you to stop looking at me as if you were going to see the devil.

"When, who did they end up killing?

You're right I wish I wasn't a princess, but it's not like I don't care who you targeted.

Basically, our guilds rarely take jobs outside the country.

Of course, if you're as good a person as I am, then you get around to assassinating dignitaries in other countries, but that's a rare story.

My research shows that no Sahaja dignitaries are coming to this country right now who are likely to be targeted by assassins.

Then it's easiest to understand that you targeted humans in this country, but who the hell did you target?

"... should I have tortured you to make you throw up before I killed you?

It was a pain in the ass, and I got rid of it, but it might have gotten faster.

Because if you were a princess, you can't leave her alone on a boulder.

Neither do those employers know who the truth is.

I took it upon myself to say that I was king of Sahaja, but not necessarily the right answer.

The possibility of being a leading nobleman in Sahaja cannot be discarded.

"Ah, already!! I have no idea!!

I shake my head with both hands.

Who did it for what, who did it for. Which one is very unknown.

"At a time like this, I wonder if my father would have solved it all the time..."

I remember my father, who died at the age of eight.

In childhood, my father was a great chief, and I had the image that any difficult question would be solved by the way. Though everyone followed their hearts in unison to the way they led the clan and spoke on their backs.

"... I just stood at the starting point. I haven't accomplished anything.... no head, no power, not enough at all"

That's right.

Because there's no one left.

And because he's the son of a chief, and he inherits all the secrets.

So just because I'm a convenience manager, I don't have enough power of my own.

I'm sure it won't even reach my father's feet.

I know that.

But still, I'm the only one left.

"I have to do this."

For the Lord's sake.

If it's not enough, I'll have to raise it up and make an effort. We have to bury it another way.

Assassins in Sahaja. Princess of my Lord.

Even if you don't think about it, the priorities are more obvious than seeing fire.

I can't have it all. I'm sure it'll go zero out of my palm even if I try to force it all.

Then we have to make sure we take what we shouldn't spill.

And what I shouldn't lose is naturally the Lord, Princess.

"Chip...... I don't know what else to do. Forget about it."

The safety of the Princess is paramount. I'm distracted by my leisure time, and I can't even look at the princess in case something happens to her.

Fortunately, this assassination was not aimed at the princess, no matter what.

If you're after the princess, you should definitely be after her when she's at the Duke's.

At least I would.

If the target isn't the princess, it shouldn't be in my hands.

"Hiyuma is only with the Lord"

I just found out about this one, but it seems that the royal castle here is never safe either.

As will the princess tomorrow when she climbs the castle, but we need to be vigilant at all costs.

It's not very dangerous for one person, but I can't let it.

"... Princess's escort route, think again"

Think about the princess's planned path tomorrow and where it would be a good idea to escort her from.

I generally thought about it earlier, but it needs to be looked into more closely.

"Shisha, I can't replace the princess's safety..."

When I sighed, I disappeared from the scene so that I could examine the castle in detail again.
