Chapter 77:His History

Robert right now couldn't feel more miserable. This mission was supposed to be very easy for him.

Since he took the potion 2 months ago he has been killing following the orders of his superior trying to accommodate the potion faster.

He could feel that he was very close, he would have used this mission to fully accommodate the potion and be one step closer to his sister but his third objective had turned out to be superior in every way.

Adryan Kenway had barely shown up a little less than a month ago and Robert could confidently say that he was the one he hated the most.

There was something about him that made his blood burn with hate and disgust so he tried to find multiple opportunities to get rid of that feeling.

But the problem was that he never managed to find the right moment so he decided to invite the man to dinner despite not wanting that disgusting thing so close to his house.

But the problem was that when the time came to attack the man, his spirituality stopped him and all he could do was swallow his pride and carry on with this game.

He had also failed to find any opportunity to poison the man because he was surprisingly attentive to everything he did in his house.

And now when the opportunity to fully accommodate the potion arrived and he had decided that Adryan would be his last kill, it had surprised him again by managing to block a blow that many others had fallen for.

It turns out that he was also a beyonder, even one much more skilled than him, being the fact that he could not at any time take the upper hand, the only moment he achieved it was when he attacked him from behind but after that Adryan had completely humiliated him.

Even his artifact that had cost him over 2,000 pounds had only helped him avoid dying too quickly.

The redhead had technically managed to kill him twice without any problem and now Robert had no more spirituality to make another trade so the only way to survive would be to trick Adryan.

So after the redhead had defeated him for the second time, he began to run towards the large group of people while being chased by the red-eyed.

"COWARD COME BACK HERE"

A furious expression appeared on his face and his blood seemed to boil with anger wanting to turn and face the redhead.

But he couldn't do that, he knew he would die if he did, he could only keep running towards the group.

What surprised him was that he could see how Charles poked his head over the table and it seemed that Adryan was also surprised by this.

"CHARLES STAY AWAY FROM ROBERT"

Hearing the scream of the redhead who was behind him getting closer and closer a sharp smile appeared on Robert's face.

He hadn't misjudged the redhead's character since he appreciated his friends a lot, even though he didn't realize it.

'This might work.' The blond's smile turned dangerous as he readied a throwing dagger in his left hand and charged at Charles.

The man fell to the ground with a face of utter terror as he watched as Robert rushed towards him, causing Robert to feel enormous pleasure at seeing his expression.

From a shadow made by a table less than 3 meters from where he was, the redhead had sped out while pointing his revolver at him.

'MY CHANCE' Robert was delighted to see how his plan had worked.

Without wasting time, he had thrown the dagger he had prepared towards the redhead, hitting the revolver causing his shot to miss and hit the floor.

Not losing this opportunity, Robert changed his objective and rushed towards the redhead due to the short distance he had managed to arrive in less than 3 seconds, not allowing the right hand that held the redhead's revolver to recover, leaving a great weak point.

"YOU ARE MINE" he yelled with great pleasure. Robert thrust into the heart of the redhead who had managed to move his left arm on the way.

'It's useless my dagger is too long so no matter if you sacrifice your arm I'll still hit your heart' at this moment it seemed that time had slowed down from Robert's perspective, and he could see how a blade came out from under the wrist of Adryan.

This made his pupils shrink and he could see that the redhead used this hidden blade to divert his thrust to the side leaving his guard unprotected.

He could also see how the redhead took advantage of this moment with his left arm and plunged that hidden blade right into his heart.

Feeling the cold embrace of death and how his vision began to darken, Robert could only think of one thing.

A smiling lady in a long black dress with fair smooth skin, brown hair like a waterfall, and brown eyes. She had the mature vibe of a woman in her thirties, but there was a remnant of innocence about her.

'Forgive me Sister Marron I couldn't keep my promise' was all he thought as he fell backwards with the redhead on top of him.

******

Adryan watched as life left Robert's eyes so letting out a heavy sigh he used his right hand to close the eyes of who was once his friend and he also took from his hand the glove made with the characteristics of a Magician.

Removing the hidden blade from Robert's chest, Adryan stopped flexing his left forearm allowing the blade to slip back under his wrist.

'It's ironic an Assassin died by the hidden blade' Adryan thought with his eyes slightly closed as he looked at Robert's lifeless body.

'Requiéstcat in pace Robert' thought the redhead while closing his eyes for a moment and after that he opened them again.

Getting up from his place, he turned his gaze to Charles who was looking at him in shock while he was still on the floor.

Before he could help his friend the redhead heard how the battle had intensified,he quickly grabbed the revolver that was on the ground and opening the cylinder emptied the casings and using Grievius's last speed loader he closed the revolver again.

Looking once more towards Charles who was being helped by his pregnant wife, he just nodded before running towards the battle while putting on the glove.
