Chapter 435 - One Last Assassination
The discussion ended fairly quickly after that.
They managed to create a plan to win over the Nightshades quite easily, and it would involve all of the members.
However, when night fell, Aiden couldn't resist going out.
He had heard things inside that room that he wanted to rectify, and the first thing on that list was Lucius Nightshade.
That bastard, who he had beaten back in the Inter-Family Tournament. The one who kept looking at the ground as if nothing important was happening around him.
Well, that man would die tonight.
Aiden wasn't where he was right now. But from what he had heard from the others, he was hidden deep inside the Nightshade Mansion, which was the tallest and biggest building within the Territory.
He glanced at Emma, who was sound asleep, and kissed her on the forehead before heading out.
He looked at her back one last time before leaving. He slowly caressed it, feeling what had happened to her, and he knew that it was horrible.
There were a few scars, but there was one right that ran all across her back.
Emma had told him a little about what had happened...and it was horrible.
Lucius managed to catch Emma and started torturing her for information about him. That's what had happened. However, she was luckily saved by the others in the room they had just been in.
Still, everything that happened to Emma in the past five years had been solely because of him.
It was his fault that Emma had gotten hurt, and it was hard to endure for him. He had been gone for too long. Emma had changed as a person...Aiden had changed; everyone had changed, and even Jake had changed.
'Don't worry, I'll get back in one piece.'
Aiden looked back as her breathing stayed the same, and she finally left her room.
He walked through the halls and quickly managed to find the way out.
"Where are you going like this?"
"Tsk. Fuck. You better come back alive," Jake said in front of him as he knew Aiden was still nearby.
Aiden nodded at his words without Jake knowing and left.
He had a job to do.
He had to assassinate someone just like he had done countless times in the past.
However, this would be his most important assassination job, and he hadn't even done recon on his target. He knew things would be tricky, but Aiden relied on his skills to survive ever since he could remember. He would simply do the same once again.
Coming out of the alternate dimension, he came out into the slums where he removed his [Camouflage]. He didn't want to fly since it would make it extremely easy to spot him, so he quickly moved toward the Nightshade Mansion.
He spotted it almost instantly since it was much bigger than everything surrounding it.
Within minutes, Aiden had reached it. However, here came his first problem.
He needed to get past security.
Just like Jake had said before, it would be extremely hard for him to do such a thing, considering that the Nightshades were the greatest at assassination in this world.
Were they better than him?
That was the question Aiden was asking himself as he moved forward toward the door.
With a quick glance, it looked like there was no one guarding it. But when someone paid more attention, he would be able to see multiple shadows surrounding it, ready to pounce on anyone who would even attempt to enter.
'I better not screw this up...' Aiden thought about Jake's words with a smile as he disappeared from his position and headed toward the first shadow.
He moved so fast that no one watching had managed to spot him.
He moved behind the man and cut off his neck in one swift motion.
His mastery over his moves was incredible, as he didn't make even the slightest noise as he moved around.
'One down, three more to go.'
