Chapter 45 – Assassination Family Raven (3)

I left the bar street and headed toward the castle gate I came from after being picked up by Roman.

The guards didn’t do any special checks to make sure they didn’t catch anyone leaving.

“Are you planning on going out there naked?”

It wasn’t me though.

I was stopped by the guards, but now I see that everyone who went out first had weapons.

I left the castle gate carrying a self-defense tool such as a long sword or at least a dagger, but I am bare-handed.

If possession of a weapon is essential, it means that there are elements of danger outside the castle gates, but I think I survived well with my abilities sealed.

Now that I remembered my clothes, I realized that they were a little tattered and that I didn’t look like a normal person.

“I have the technology to protect myself. Thank you for your concern.”

I answered politely because I couldn’t use Shadow Craft here.

Looking at the temple leader’s reaction, it seemed like he didn’t look very favorably on the Crow family, so I had to ask for my ID.

“It’s okay. Anyway, the rule is ‘don’t stop people from leaving.'”

Another guard stopped the person who was blocking me and gestured for me to leave.

After bowing my head to the two guards, I slowly walked back the way I came in, carrying Roman on my back.

I don’t really remember the journey up to this point, but did I come all the way from Seongguk with just my real ID?

Recalling the time when I was carried by Roman, I came to the middle of the forest where no one was visible.

The possession started here, but the memory of Cian Raven did not immediately come to mind.

It seems like I came into a body that has lived a much more complicated life than the first possession, which was just Isian itself.

I felt like there was a fog in my head that wouldn’t reveal Cyan Raven’s memories until I completed the quest.

I decided to stop trying to remember and bent down to check if I had dropped anything else, but there really wasn’t anything.

It would have been nice to have at least one piece of gold left.

‘In the first place, when the Raven family goes to assassinate, the principle is to minimize their belongings.’

Since you can attack using shadows, it is very suitable for surprise attacks.

Even with the dagger I can use Shadow Craft, if I drive it into the other person’s heart and then make it disappear, there will be no evidence left.

So, he created a spirit sword based on the technique he had established.

Kills the target by hiding a blade made of shadows in the shadows.

The problem is how to remove the body immediately after assassinating it, but Cyan Raven was lacking in that part.

A member of the Raven family can easily escape from the scene by hiding in the shadows using the Shadow Master, but all Cian Raven did was cover up the shadows and hide his appearance.

‘That’s why I got hit by ‘that guy’.’

My anger towards the person from my family called ‘that guy’ continues to build, so I have to go to my family and kill him after the 5 days have passed to return the possessed person and then go back.

“Huh, Mr. Sian? Are you here to pick up something you dropped?”

At that time, Roman came from inside the forest with a basket full of grass.

His brown hair had a few leaves attached to it, probably because he had walked through the forest. As soon as he came out into the clearing, he shook his head and removed the leaves.

“Yes. I don’t think I dropped anything.”

“Ah… Have you regained some of your memories? Are you sure you have to go to the Raven family?”

“You don’t have to worry because I’m not going to ask for an assassination. What about Yui?”

“Hehe… Hehe… I told you not to leave me!”

Yui, who came out of the forest while breathing heavily, slapped Roman’s back with her palm.

It reminds me of Seoyeon’s handmade taste.

“I carried all the luggage for you. All you have to do is follow me, but you really lack stamina.”

“I know… It’s dangerous for you to walk around without a weapon, but Shall we go back together? Or would you like us to help you find your lost item?”

Are you trying to do a good deed when you’re exhausted from trekking through the forest?

I thought that there were many decent people who believed in goddesses.

“No. It looks like someone already took it. Let’s go to the village together one more time. Mr. Roman, would you like me to carry your luggage for you?”

Since I think I’ve gotten almost all the memories I could from here, I thought it would be better to go back and take a rest.

“No. Sian is a patient, right? I can handle this much too!”

She lifted the basket full of grass up and down and said with her body that it was okay.

This time, I passed through the gate without carrying Roman on my back.

Not long after I left, I returned right away and the guard who had stopped me looked at me with a strange look.

Do you feel like you worried me for no reason?

“We have to go to the guild and deliver something. Would you like to go to the temple first?”

“No, it’s okay. Fortunately, I met an acquaintance. Thank you so much for helping me today.”

“Ah, yes. Then, let’s go.”

After parting ways with Roman and Yui once again, I walked around the village.

I thought it would be a world where magic tools were widespread, but it was harder to see them on the streets than I thought.

Since they are a branch of the Raven family, the Crow family, do they have currency magic tools or other magic tools?

While walking around town, I came across a good clothing store, so I bought some neat clothes that I could wear with the money I received from Terry Crow and changed into them.

Although she slowly increased her assimilation rate by seeing this world with her own eyes, her memories did not come back.

I thought I would only be able to receive any growth from clearing the quest after returning to the Raven family, so I took a quick look around the town and returned to Terry Crow’s safe house before the bar street got busy.

“Are you back already?”

When I got back to the safe house, Terry Crow looked quite surprised that I came back early.

“I don’t have anything special to do? It wouldn’t be inconvenient if I stayed until tomorrow morning, right?”

“Yes. It’s okay.”

It would definitely be uncomfortable if I was around, but since my physical condition is not perfect yet, I thought it would be better to stay in a place I can trust.

As I entered the master bedroom and lay down on the bed, I felt a woman’s pleasant scent.

“If there is a battle surface… Is it possibly open?”

【Skill: Survival Rules (A)】

【One. Calmness 2. Perception 3. Combat Sleep】

Since I was only concerned about exceeding 250 combat power and expanding the possession slot upon completing the quest, I did not notice that additional survival rules were opened.

As soon as the possession slot was expanded, I used summer possession while lying on the dorm bed and continued to search for possession.

Then, when I collapsed in the forest right after being possessed, I could have recovered some stamina and alleviated the symptoms of poisoning if I had just woken up, but I understood that recovery was not included in the quest reward.

That means that if you take a breather now and wake up, the symptoms of addiction can be further alleviated.

I closed my eyes on a fairly soft bed that smelled like Terry’s body.

*

When I woke up from a sigh, I felt much more comfortable moving my body.

Isn’t it great that your combat power goes up even if you just wake up?

It has already exceeded 200.

It will likely go up more dramatically if you raise Shadow Master, but that will go up when you arrive at the Raven family tomorrow when the warp gate opens.

When I woke up, I felt hungry, so I came out of the room to look for something to eat, and saw Terry dozing off in a chair.

‘Am I, after all, an inconvenience to Terry Crow?’

It’s between an intelligence agent in a quiet village and a combat agent on a mission to assassinate a high-ranking priest in a holy country.

And I am currently the person who has been given the Raven surname and am in a much higher position than Terry Crow.

Terry, who was dozing, stirred once, looked around, and when she saw me looking at her, she lowered her head.

“I’m sorry. You were asleep, so I didn’t wake you up. Would you like me to prepare a meal for you or would you like me to wait for you at night from now on?”

“Night service?”

There was a strange word in what Terry Crow said, so I had no choice but to ask back.

“Yes. When someone from your family asks you to spend a night in a safe house with crows of different genders, you are asking them to serve you for the night. You should never avoid it…”

Did that have any meaning? When I heard the story about the chestnut market, the assimilation rate went up a little more.

Apparently, when an assassin offered to spend the night in a safe house, it was slang for asking an intelligence agent to serve him for the night.

The Raven family is a family of assassins, and because they are people who live with the readiness to die at any time as they receive life in return for assassination, they were free in sexual activity to leave a legacy for future generations.

Because people from branch families tend to want to have children who carry on the blood of the main family.

“Do you not like me by any chance…?”

Terry Crow, who creates and destroys mountains by putting his index fingers together in front of his chest, seems to have been secretly looking forward to serving at night.

Did the preparation I heard earlier before leaving refer to grooming for the night service?

“Let’s eat first.”

“Yes, I will heat up the food for you. Or should I make it fresh?”

“You can bring it warm.”

I didn’t think there was any need to do more work, so I decided to heat up Terry’s dinner and eat it before I got up.

It wasn’t much different from what I had for lunch, but it didn’t taste as good because it was reheated.

To be honest, I didn’t really feel the taste because Terry was looking forward to serving me at night.

Cyan Raven was definitely served that night, and he didn’t seem to love anyone.

The most recent sexual experience I had as Yu Xian was when Seoyeon gave me a blowjob a day ago.

I think that’s enough, but in preparation for times like this, I took the initiative from Seoyeon, right?

And Seoyeon can’t know what I did while possessed by Ha-gye.

“I will wash first and then wait.”

“Ah, yes. I will prepare quickly.”

The shower facilities in this world were a bit old-fashioned, and people used a bucket to scoop up water and wash themselves clean.

While I was washing up, Terry Crow, who had finished washing the dishes, went straight into the bathroom. As I was sitting in the master bedroom, Terry Crow, wearing a towel wrapped around his body, carefully came in.

“As you may know, I come from a branch family. I am not from the main family.”

“But that’s okay. I actually think it’s better to be called to the main house even though it’s a branch house.”

Terry Crow lowered the towel covering her body to her determined face.
