CHAPTER 16: Wall Sina

"Be certain that he who has betrayed thee once will betray thee again."

- Johann Kaspar Lavater

"I have the same goals as yours! I meant to destroy the Dark Claws, the first time I got here," she said seriously.

I look for anything that might tell that she was lying, but there's none. Her words are full of convictions; I can't even get to see any flaws in her words.

"How?" I asked again, wrinkling my forehead.

"Before telling you how, I want to introduce myself to you first. I'm Kazumi Fujiwara, one of the three great pillars of the Dark Claws. I am their "wall Sina", their greatest tactician, and their greatest assassin. My people are both specialized in combat fighting and armed fighting." This made my forehead wrinkle deepened.

"Why would the greatest assassin, and tactician want to overthrow the Dark Claws? Aren't you one of the high position official here? Are you going to overthrow it? You also said that that's your aim from the beginning? What kind of joke are you telling me? If you want to destroy this fucking group, then why didn't you did it before? Why now?" I asked her with a hint of anger.

What a fool! What kind of foolishness is she trying to tell me! Nonsense! How else did she get to her place if she was just planning to overthrow them, right? She would have done it when she had the chance from the very start!

"Then before answering your questions, why not answer mine first? I know that you and your friends are building tunnels to escape all of the slaves we have here, and I also know, that your tunnel is already far enough as an escape route, why until now, you guys aren't doing anything to save yourself?" She asked me with a serious face while crossing her legs.

How did she find out about the secret tunnel? FUCK! Looks like our plan is going to mess up, ah?

"H-how did y-you... "I stammered, stuttering, as my chest heaved.

"I've been keeping my eyes on you since day one. Because from all the slaves we've experimented with so far, you are the only ones who can withstand the elixir drugged. You made yourself immune to the poison of the elixir which is very different from the rest of the kids who had been injected by it. Your mind power is also something. If you told yourself you're not hurt, then your body would also react to it, effortlessly. Your mind power is much more powerful than anyone else. And in addition to that, you also acquired fast movements from our elixir experiment. Aren't you astounded by the fact that you can do things too fast, even before your prey do actions? Even your killing instinct matters as well. Your body moves on its own, Even without being told by your mind. And to sum it all up, you were a genuine genius, not just in mind but also at heart. " She explained.

"You are capable of doing almost anything if you wanted to. One example here is weapon innovation. Not everyone is capable of making paper like bombs, which is so thin that cannot be noticed too easily by the person getting it. But could explode like a huge type of bomb. Weapons out of craps. I already know you're the one who we've been waiting for, Rinleigh. And we saw how your body reacts from the elixir experiment from what we saw from the arena." she added while smiling.

I was left dumbfounded after hearing all of her observations and conclusions. This only shows how my life is being supervised inside this hell, by this woman. She concluded even the tiniest part of me, even how I feel and think.

"I already answered your questions, now start answering mine. Why until now, you and your friends aren't doing anything to leave this hell." She asked me too seriously which gives me chills down my spine.

"Because it's not yet time! We promised to annihilate the race of the Dark Claws before we escape. And were planning not just us, but also the whole population of demon's slaves. And to do that, I and my friends still need to gather enough information and tactics for that." I answered defensively.

"That's exactly my answer too, to your question. Because it's not yet the time. I know that for you, my answer is a bit foolish and unrealistic. Because I've been working for the Dark Claws for years already, and you find all of them weak. But you're wrong! You have yet to fight full pledge assassins. I may have the power now, but it's not yet enough to destroy them. I need you. And I know that you and your friends need me too, to accomplish the same goal. Please Rinleigh. Lend me your strength, and I promise to lend you mine."

After that long conversation with Ms. Kazumi, the one in black-cloaked was able to convince me of joining her league is destroying the monster and their den. I have learned so much from her, as she and her assistant Iris gave out different information about those hunters.

Dark Claws Assassins has three well-known pillars or walls, to protect the high personality whom they call the elites...

ELITE- elites are high personality people who are sponsoring the Dark Claws' different projects. They were a group of businessmen and Government officials who have transportation under the black market. Selling drugs, and doing nasty things, for their benefits. They were the real people who took all kinds of benefits in the precious minerals slaves inside this hell gets.

WALL MARIA- One of the Dark Claws pillars. This is the leader who takes charge under the Assassin's who specialized in martial arts and combats alone. Oftentimes, Assassins under her ruling were sent for spying and such. Wall Maria Assassin group was known to have the utmost members. They were like the foot soldiers in the old Roman era.

WALL ROSE- is also one of the Dark Claws great pillars who are handling Assassins who are known to specialize in a different kind of weapon. Like bombs, guns, daggers, spears, lance, etc. They were like knights with horses in the old Roman, with swords and lance.

WALL SINA- is the last pillars, who are known to lead Assassins who specialized in both combat and weapons. They have the least members. And all known to be the tacticians. Their leader wall Sina is the Assassin's greatest tactician. And known to be the most dangerous among all pillars.

SQUAD LEADER- A group of Assassins who was known to kill in a group. And they were the leader. They are sent to kill people in groups and take a few missions. Though they have their group of men, Assassins under the leadership of the walls, have a higher position than them.

FULL PLEDGE ASSASSINS- They were the best pick of Assassins who are sent to do mission alone. They don't have any particular leader.

HIGH-RANK ASSASSINS- Usually these monkeys are just inside this hell, taking charge in managing the slaves. They are Assassins' who are guarding the storage room, and the cell of all of their hostages, or their prey, such as I am.

LOW-RANK ASSASSINS- they were the Assassins who loved to command each of the slaves acting as if they are gods! And those slaves are not humans, to begin with, and getting tired was never an option to them. They are also those lewd perverts whom we call gay shits. Taking advantage of us slaves.

Apart from the Dark Assassins pyramid of Duty, I also learned that Ms. Kazumi was able to save my life again in the hands of the predators.

Trying to ask how? Simple. She was able to make a bargain of my life on their meeting together with the elites. She suggested my use to the organization. She suggested to make me an official Assassin of the Dark Claws. But the two pillars are against the idea, so she recommends them to have me fight Jago. The killer slave that the Assassin's used for their entertainment. I also heard that Jago is too strong that he never had the time where he loses a fight in the arena. Because losing is equal to death. I can't help to think about the old Roman era, where gladiators still exist. This hell is something.

This idea made me so happy knowing that if I were to be a Low Rank, I can still spend time with Sean and the others. Even though I must admit that I felt a bit scared knowing about my fight with Jago, the monster inside me is now partying in excitement. Wanting to slit the famous Jago's neck.
