Where is Jerry?
"Heh! Why would I answer to a kid who is weaker than me." the Assassin chuckled.
Yeah, this was not the same assassin who saw Edward Killing Ren and Kelly. If he was that one, then he would have never said those words.
"Oh! Is that so?"
Edward removed his cultivation limit and the Assassin frowned.
"Y-you are a Mid Core Formation Realm."
"Oh, don't worry my cultivation is more than this but if I reveal all of it then you will be suppressed by my aura and might even pass out again. Now I don't want that."
The Assassin's frown deepened.
Yeah, Edward was lying. But the assassin did not think so.
"H-how did you hide your cultivation?"
"You don't need to know that?
I am the stronger one here.
So, I will question, and you will answer."
The assassin was only a Late Qi Refinement Stage Cultivator.
"Now tell me who you are and why are you here?"
"W-why do you think I would tell you?
I-I am not afraid of death."
"Sigh. Don't give me this crap.
These are all cliché lines.
If you don't start speaking, then I will give you something worse than death."
Edward spoke the last line with an Evil Smile.
A chill ran down the assassin's spine and he started spilling everything out of his mouth.
"I-I am an assassin from the Black Assassin's Organization.
And I was sent here to keep an eye on you."
"Who sent you here?"
"..."
The assassin remained silent.
"ANSWER MEEE!!!"
Edward said in a loud tone.
"Ms. Seven sent me here." the assassin spoke in fear.
"Who is this Ms. Seven?"
"She is the head of our division."
Edward suddenly remembered something.
"Is she a woman who has small white hairs and wears a red dress?"
"H-how did you know?"
Edward's hunch was correct. It was the same woman who was coming with her assassins towards him in the forest.
"Why did she tell you to keep an eye on me?"
"I don't know that."
Edward glared at the assassin.
"I-I really don't know that."
"Then tell me when will you meet this Ms. Seven again."
"Today M-midnight."
"Good."
Edward gave a creepy smile.

At Midnight~
On the roof of student's dorm.
A woman with short hairs like a boy was standing while folding her hands near her breasts.
'Damn! He is late. If he doesn't come within a minute I will skin him alive.'
Suddenly, a man appeared behind her.
She turned around and said, "Why were you late?"
"Ms. Seven I was keeping an eye on that boy.
I didn't even budge and noticed all the activities of the boy."
"Hmm, so was there something shady with him?"
"No, Ms. Seven the boy acted like a normal person. I don't think there is something fishy with him."
The woman glared at him.
"What do you mean? Do you think Leon was lying?
Explain yourself."
"No no, Ms. Seven I didn't mean it like that-"
"What's with you today, you are taking my name too many times and you didn't even say our secret code?"
Eh!?
"Who are you?" Seven said while she kept a knife on the man's throat from behind.
The man noticed her movement but he let her do what she was doing.
"Oops! Looks like I got caught."
The man teleported away from Seven.
"You-" Ms. Seven's eyes widened as she saw the man's face.
"Y-you are Edward Greyson.
Why are you here? And where is Jerry?"
"Oh! That chicken he is already six feet's under." said Edward with an innocent smile.
"W-what?" Seven was becoming restless.
"Why don't we sit and talk like civilized people?
What do you say Alfina Turner?"
Ms. Seven was shocked.
"Y-you how do you know my name?" she asked in shock and anger.
"Oh! Getting interested are we.
How about it, we sit and talk calmly?" Edward offered.
"Shut up bastard! Tell me what I am asking?"
"Sigh~ I wanted to have a nice calm chat, but it looks like you are very restless Ms. Alfina. So be it."
Edward teleported behind her and knocked her out with a chop on her nape.
Ms. Seven couldn't even understand what happened and felt dizzy.
Her eyes closed and she fell into Edwards's arms unconscious.
"Looking up closely. You are a beauty.
A beauty indeed. Haha"
