Hero of Darkness

illed without flinching because they were part of his contract.

This was a world where Law & Justice didn ’t apply to you as long as you held power and authority.
It was a world where the strong preyed on the weak.

Kahn purely acted based on self-preservation.
He didn ’t trust a single soul in this world other than himself.
And thanks to the Somir ’s will he inherited which changed his personality and demeanor to some degree..
He would not be swayed by his emotions and act rashly.

He didn ’t mindlessly kill but he also didn ’t mind killing anyone who stood in his way.

The reason why he chose to put up a display of justice & wrote those words with blood on the walls was to send a message to the entire city.
To create a foundation of his new persona he was going to introduce.

Kahn went to meet Nikola as soon as the office hours were up.

”So how much did I earn? ” asked Kahn to the old man about his earnings from the materials and things he sold yesterday.

”Take a look yourself. ” said the old man and tossed a high-grade space ring to Kahn.

”That ’s for all the materials you gave me yesterday.
The list was quite big so it took some time.
This is the most reasonable price I can give you.
And by the way, the Ring is on the house. ” said the old man and chuckled.

As soon as Kahn checked the contents of the new space ring..
His jaw almost hit the floor and eyes popped out in surprise.

”Sixty thousand! It ’s sixty thousand gold dramus. ” shouted Kahn in surprise as he couldn ’t believe his eyes.

Kahn originally expected 15 to 20 thousand gold coins at best.
Now he felt like he greatly undermined the value of the fortune he acquired that day.
This transaction now made Kahn filthy rich compared to many adventurers.

”Keep them coming and I ’ll pay you more next time. ” said the old merchant as he rubbed his hands together like a fly..

”Yeah yeah..
It ’ll take me some time to gather more but you can look forward to it.
By the way, do you have a detailed city map? I don ’t know much about the city and many of its areas so I often get lost.. ” Kahn said as he rubbed his hair sheepishly.

”Oh, I do have one just here. ” said Nikola and took out a large folded map from a nearby wooden shelf.

”Thanks.
I ’m going off to the dungeon again.
I ’ll see you at dinner. ” said Kahn and left the office.

As for why he needed the detailed city map..
It was to plan his assassinations and targets the most efficient way he could as the locality, crowd and desolate corners played a big part in it from Kahn ’s experience he had yesterday night.

Kahn simply asked for directions of the places and found his targets one by one and this took him the entire morning.

With a map, he could create a list of his next targets and properly plan his assassinations.

Today, Kahn didn ’t go outside the merchant enterprise and spent his entire day studying the book and the intel in it along with the small book which consisted of the list of his contract targets.
He had to incorporate them together so that no one would connect the dots about all the killings being specifically targeted towards Stragabor and his people.
His plan was simple..

’In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity. ’

As the night fell..
Kahn left his room through the window using Shadow Walk and traveled through the city from one location to another without being noticed by anyone.

Tonight, half of the city was under surveillance because of yesterday ’s incident.
And many shops and restaurants were closed off earlier.
People were afraid and the authorities were taking him seriously.

The next morning, the scene was even wilder & chaotic than yesterday.
Because as soon as the sunlight fell, people found a total of 14 bodies of humans, demihumans and some soldiers impaled on the walls of the city in different locations.
With words written using blood just like yesterday..

NO SINNER SHALL GO UNPUNISHED NO MORE.
FOR I AM THE JUDGE, THE JURY AND THE EXECUTIONER..

I AM AZRAEL..
THE ANGEL OF DEATH
