Chapter 10 - Assassinations

"How much reputation do I need exactly?" Alex muttered coldly

The man held out his hand, and she slid him another silver before he continued.

"1000 contribution points to enter the manor, 5000 to directly get a meeting with the boss." The man grinned.

"So then how do you accumulate reputation quickly?" Alex asked curiously.

"Well that's obvious isn't it?" The information broker looked somewhat confused. "By taking on the assassination missions over there at the bounty board." He pointed at a massive wooden board next to the manor.

She thanked him before going over to inspect the bounty board. It was filled with names of people, and each of them had grades of difficulty that would give different amounts of rewards.

Alex casually grabbed a B-ranked assassination quest, and went to find the target. Her target turned out to be a drunken man who had raped a wealthy woman, and as such the woman paid for his head.

She glanced at the drunkard of a man sighing softly. The reason that it was considered a B-ranked mission was because the drunkard was actually relatively strong even if he was constantly drunk it would be difficult for someone to kill him before the city guards rushed over.

However, for Alex this wasn't a problem. She glanced at her over 400 AGI attribute, and grinned running straight at the man before slicing his head clean off. The drunkard didn't even know what happened before he died. She casually picked up the man's head before returning to the black market, and handing in the bounty.

When she saw the notification Alex was reminded about the reward she got from killing the Crimson Flaming Boar. She looked into her inventory to find the two [Rare Chests], and opened them without hesitation.

She had also equipped the [Iron Heart] which increased her DEF, END, and SST attributes slightly. It also came with an active skill that increased her defence by 20% temporarily. Alex grinned happily at the sight of her newly improved stats.

She felt that she could try an A-ranked assassination quest, and that's exactly what she did. The target this time was a noble child who had constantly bullied a group of his classmates, and the classmates came together, and pooled enough money for his death.

She looked at the heavily guarded manor where the noble child lived. Alex frowned, and slowly examined the exterior of the manor coming to the conclusion that it was best to break in from the side where a window was.

Dashing through the window she came across a room filled with a strange sight.
