Behind the scenes.

- Zen - Murim Alliance headquarters - Guest Room 12 - 6 Hours before the Invasion -

Today Zen could clearly feel that there is something up, he doesn't necessarily know exactly what or any details of it, but due to his Origin Cultivation Technique [Jade Cardinal Beast And Protector Technique] who boosts his senses beyond the normal, he could feel that there is something in the air. It is heavy and foreboding...

And his gut feeling improved by the [Jade Cardinal Beast And Protector Technique] has never misled him before, his master even says that when he reached a higher level of proficiency with the [Jade Cardinal Beast And Protector Technique] he will develop some sort of Sixth sense. And using the [Origin Essense] of the technique called [Cardinal Beast Mimicry] his boost on sensing will reach another level. It no surprise that the word for this technique is "Sense".

Zen was thrown out of his musing with some knocks on the door, seeing as it is probably the Murim alliance he went and opened it, the chief and two more bodyguards were there. Looking at him the chief said.

"Good morning Zen, I hope you had a good night's sleep because today I have a special gift for you."(Alliance Chief).

"A gift? Thank you chief."(Zen).

"No problem. The gift is a full-day tour of the best places in the city, the are restaurants, museums, theater and much more..."(Alliance Chief).

"It sounds cool. Thanks"(Zen).

"I know right. These two here will be your guides, be sure to pay attention to them."(Alliance Chief).

After that the Alliance chief disappeared at the end of the corridor, the two jailors- I mean guides, looked at me and just waited for me to move. Apparently, there is really something happening today and the alliance chief wants me out of it. But what is so worrisome that he would kick me out in the pretext of touring the city.

Now he only made me even more curious when it comes to it, sadly the two guides are a little bit stronger than me and in their territory. So I guess I need to find someplace where I mislead and foil their plan.

- Subordinate - Murim Alliance Headquarters - Boss Office - Time of the Demon King Invasion -

Subordinate has spent most of his time following the Boss orders or simply taking guard outside of recruit Guest room, till this day Subordinate was baffled why boss told those things to Recruit, it's like he is mad or something... Nah, impossible.

And then there is that dammed Goomoonryong, Subordinate sincerely doesn't know the details, but if his boss doesn't like someone he makes sure to not like them either. the guys are even invading their own headquarters right about now.

But Subordinate tough prosses was interrupted when he heard Boss calling for him. Entering the Boss office he looked at the man that he owes his life to.

"Good Subordinate you came fast. I have a task for you."(Boss).

"Ok Boss, I am all ears."(Subordinate).

"Remeber that Adress we got from hackign Han Yue files?"(Boss).

"Yeah, I remember the chief saying to drop and I quote 'this bullshit right now'."(Subordinate).

"I know. But there is only one problem. I don't like it. Not one bit."(Boss)

"Understandable, we spent a lot of time and effort in the investigation and-"(Subordinate).

A crazed and obsessive look appeared on the Boss face, sadly Subordinate was too engrossed in the talk to see or notice it. Or he is already completely numb to such things.

"No.No.No. we are doing this for JUSTICE! So I want you to go to the tracked address and capture our target, you can kill him if you want to. I would do it myself but according to the chief I am obliged to be present today or he will simply cut away some of my privileges. But I can't simply let something like that slide..."(Boss).

"I understand Boss. I will make sure to do it as fast and professionally as possible."(Subordinate)

"Good, good. I also want you to-"(Boss).

Boss and Subordinate talked for some more time before Subordinate was free to do his mission, as the time is of the essence and things outside are escalating quickly he quickly went to a side exit. When he exited the alliance headquarters he could swear he forgot something but Subordinate couldn't remember it. If he doesn't remember it shouldn't be that improtant.

- Recruit - Murim alliance Headquarters - Guest Room 16 - Time of the Invasion -

Recruit was growing increasingly nervous, for some reason or the other there was a lot of loud noises happening outside, sometime he could hear people running and other times he would feel some kind of great impact in the building.

And after he heard the Goomoonryong saying those things in the communicators he is quite surprised someone would attack the alliance like that. But this is his chance of running away from the madness.

Sadly Subordinate is always at the door guarding his room, making it almost impossible to escape. He tried many times after all, but every one of those was to no avail, there are simply too many people at the alliance. But the confusion and mess the Goomoonryong is making is the perfect opportunity for his escape.

And when Subordinate went to attend a call from Boss, Recruit couldn't help but think lady luck is on his side right now. Sadly there is still someone at the door on guard duty, but this time si just one person, and by what recruit was able to see on the cameras the guard is alone too. Good, time for the plan.

Recruit start searching for an improvised weapon he made, it's something made with a lof fabric interweaved like an extremely resistant line of multiple threads, it's pretty similar to what he saw those hitman using. Thankfully this guard is way weaker than Subordinate, so the task is already looking way more optimistic than when he started.

Recruit decided to make some loud noises inside, the guard suspicious of what was happening shouted through the door. Seeing as the loud noises continued the guard decided to check things for himself, that would be the last thing he did.

Seeing the guard entering the room with some caution Recruit poisoned himself behind the door, when the guard gave his back to him recruit simply put his line on the guard's nack and made a lot of strength pullin the line towards him, the guard slowly lost air due to him being strangulated and finally he collapsed.

Seeing his first obstacle was taken care of Recruit immediately set to escape the alliance headquarters, thankfully he did not see anyone on the way and he was able to smoothly exit the building disappearing in the streets of the city.
