"What? Establishing an assassin organization?" Rian widened his eyes in surprise.
The revelation left him utterly taken aback.
The notion of establishing an assassin organization was so unexpected that he never fathomed it would be Arthur's proposition.
Initially, he had entertained the possibility that Arthur's request could involve joining his ranks as a subordinate or providing protection.
However, the idea of establishing such an organization of assassins sent his heart racing.
The reason being that he had never personally founded an organization from the ground up.
In fact, the Black Swan organization itself was not his brainchild; he had merely assumed leadership after being appointed by his predecessor.
Despite his initial shock, he was resolute in fulfilling Arthur's request, even if it proved challenging.
He held steadfast to his commitment and viewed the promise he had made to Arthur as a solemn oath he could not break.
