The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World



"So, you're giving me this for free?" asked Aiden unsure as to why he would give him this potion.

"I already told you, I want you to get rid of those generals, that's why I'm giving it to you."

"Yeah but isn't you giving me this potion a clear opposition to the Upsilon Empire?"

"Who cares? It's not like I'm with them or anything. They just took me in for my potions and I accepted because they would provide me with materials."

Hearing this, Aiden understood that the man in front of him didn't care about anything. He would simply do as he wished.

"Alright, just to make sure, if I come back with the ingredients for the Elixir you will craft it for me?"

"Yes, exactly."

'That guy really is stupid,' thought Aiden as he couldn't why that man would do such a thing.

Even if he hated the generals and the army of the Upsilon Empire shouldn't he still support them?

'Well, I guess he doesn't know that I'm an assassin from the Avaloria Empire or else he probably wouldn't help me.'

"Then... thank you for this and I'll get going as I can't waste any more time here," said Aiden as he thanked him for the potion of invisibility.

"Good luck, you'll need it, those guys are strong I'm telling you."

'Well, if they're as strong as Olivier it really shouldn't be any problem killing them,' thought Aiden as Oliver wasn't anything special.

"Oh and could you tell me where the rooms of those generals you speak of are?" asked Aiden just before turning his back.

"Hmm, I don't think I need to tell you that, you'll see they're easy to spot," said Alex.

'Easy to spot? What does that mean?'

But he didn't think a lot about this as Alex was probably telling the truth. So, he turned his back and started walking toward the entrance of the castle.

'Alright, so all I need to do to get back to Nova is find the three generals and kill them, then I'll need to kill the boss that I don't even know about yet,' thought Aiden as he placed his feet inside the castle.

As soon as he entered, he noticed that he was in a large hallway that seemed to lead toward a big room that was probably the place where visitors would first enter.

As he started advancing in the hallway, he started seeing feet and arms which were close to the wall.

'Shit! Don't tell me there are guards even inside?' thought as he quickly hid behind a wall as he didn't want to get spotted by the guards which he could see even now. 

He thought that the guards would only be outside as it probably wasn't that useful to have them even inside as this castle seemed to be quite well protected.

There were many of them, they were all watching around them. They seemed to be taking their jobs seriously unlike the guards who were outside which weren't that great.

But those guards still probably wouldn't be able to do much against Aiden in a one versus one. The problem was that if they started alerting everyone then he would be in big trouble as everyone would start coming toward him and he probably wouldn't be able to win if they all came upon him.

Not knowing what to do, he decided to use the potion which Alex had given him so that he could infiltrate without any risk of getting caught.

It didn't matter if he couldn't get his hands on the ingredients for the Elixir.

What mattered right now was completing the trial without dying because if Aiden died, then he would die for real this time. He wouldn't be coming back to life like the others had said.

The only other option a part from using the potion was to use the [Return Stone] but that would mean that he would have to start a completely new trial which didn't make any sense.

'I guess I have no other choice, I need to use it,' thought Aiden as he didn't want to take risks that would likely result in his death.

He decided that it was best for him to play it safe and make sure that he was going to be able to complete the <Trial Objective>.

[Potion of Invisibility has been used.]

[You now have one minute where you will be completely invisible.]

Aiden sensed the effects of the potions and he decided to look at his arms to make sure it was working.

'Wow, this is crazy, it really works, my arm is now completely invisible,' thought Aiden shocked by the effects.

But he didn't have time to admire the effects as the duration of the potion was quite low, he needed to hurry up before he would be discovered by the guards.

He started running in the hallway getting closer and closer to the guards, but as usual, he didn't make any noise. He really was a phantom moving silently in between the guards.

After arriving in the big room with all the guards around him, he now had 45 seconds to decide where to go next as he had absolutely no idea where to find the rooms of the generals.

Looking around himself, he needed to find a way to leave this spot as he would surely be killed if the potion stopped working right there.

As he continued to look around himself, he spotted a gigantic staircase right in front of him. 

Without wasting any time he ran toward it as fast as he could wanting to get out of the vision of the guards.

As he arrived at the staircase which was now out of the vision of the guards.

He was now safe, all he needed to do was find the rooms of the generals and kill them in their sleep.

[The effects of the invisibility potion have stopped.]

[You are now visible to everyone around you.]
