Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 381 - Tissan Sasamil

Roan narrowed his eyes. It was true that he could use Yin Energy, but not in the order that Gval thought. His Dark Element was his own affinity. He didn't need his Yin Energy to use it. Of course, all his and Rean's techniques that used Dark Element automatically had Yin Energy in them. However, what bothered him was not that, but the killing part.

"Do all your new customers have to kill someone to get access to the Black Market?"

Gval shook his head as he replied.

"I have the power to decide what kind of proof I need. Usually, it's just a huge sum of Spirit Stones, but I'm making an especial exception for you. This way, you'll be able to enter without having to pay anything."

Roan shook his head, saying.

"I don't mind paying. Just give me the price."

Gval didn't seem to care, continuing with his original intention.

"No can do. I already decided that this is the kind of proof I need from you. Don't worry. It's not like I'm trying to make you the enemy of the state. Your target is an old customer who's refusing to pay a few debts. However, his debts aren't big enough to be worth calling the Shadow Reapers."

Roan was losing his patience.

"Just get straight to the point. Who do you need dead? Depending on the answer, I'll simply look for another Black Market."

Gval nodded before passing him a picture.

"His name is Tissan Sasamil. A descendent of the Imperial Family."

Roan felt like killing Gval right there and then.

"Are you fucking kidding me? You want me to kill a member of the Imperial Family right inside the Capital? Let alone me, even someone with much higher cultivation wouldn't have this chance. Do you think the Imperial Palace is just like any peasant's house?"

Gval laughed after hearing that.

"Hahaha! Of course not. Don't worry, Tissan can't go back to the Imperial Palace anymore. His only choice is to live in the Inner City. Besides, he has almost no protection whatsoever. I might as well tell you this. Even if he dies, the Imperial Family won't lift a single finger for him. Of course, that's as long as you don't do it right in front of everyone. The Imperial Family still has its face to keep."

Roan finally understood what was happening.

"Hehe! So it's just the elimination of trash, huh? Sure enough, the Sasamil Imperial Family has a few connections to the Black Market. No, a few of their members are probably the owners of the Black Market itself. In the Sasamil Imperial Family, talent and intelligence is everything. Since this guy can't go back, it means that he was deemed trash by the family."

Gval showed a surprised expression at Roan.

"You are not as idiotic as I thought you'd seem. However, you better be careful, young man. If what you said here was said outside, you would be in huge trouble. So, will you take the test? I don't mind if you go somewhere else to try and enter another Black Market. However, the next ones might not be as lenient as me."

Roan pondered for a bit.

"Alright. How do I prove his death? It's not like I can walk around with a head in my bag. Just one Spiritual Sense scan, and I'll be done for."

Gval already expected that answer.

"Of course, I wouldn't be idiotic enough to ask for such a thing. All the Imperial Family Members have a plate of identification. For the lower members, it is as important as their own lives. You can just bring it to me. Oh, right. If possible, get rid of the body. For a Dark Element User like you, it shouldn't be too hard to accomplish."

Roan then got all the information before exiting the room. When he passed by the place where Dudle died, nothing out of the ordinary could be found, let alone a body. It was as if nothing had ever happened there.

Sometime later, Roan explained what happed to Rean through their Soul Connection.

'I see what you want to do. You will lock that Tissan guy up and take the information you need from him, right?'

Roan nodded.

'Yes.'

Rean pondered a bit before saying.

'Since this guy is considered trash in the Imperial Family, he probably doesn't know much. Otherwise, the family wouldn't discard him that easily. If I'm not wrong, you will still need that information market from the Black Market.'

Roan agreed with Rean.

'I know. Still, it seems it was only recently that Tissan was thrown out. Perhaps he knows more than we expect.'

Rean had to admit that Roan had a point.

'Okay. I know what you want. I should be able to ask for a break from Elder Droman. Are you going to move tonight?'

'Yes. I want to be able to enter the Black Market tomorrow if possible. Every day counts.'

Rean nodded.

'Alright. In that case, I have an idea you might like.'

'What is it?'

Ran smiled before continuing.

'You are planning to interrogate the guy in his residence before getting rid of him, right? However, such an action still has a degree of danger. The best thing is to get him away from there and ask questions later. That being said, let's send him into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm.'

[Hey, hey, hey! Are you really okay with that?]

Sister Orb immediately interjected.

'Hahaha! Don't worry, Sister Orb. First of all, you're stronger than the guy, so you can't possibly be afraid. Nonetheless, I will prepare something nice for him.'

Roan understood what Rean wanted to do.

'That's good. That way, he won't notice that he's in a separated dimension. Anyway, come out as soon as you can. You can go back and study your formations later.'

Rean nodded.

'By the way, what's his cultivation?'

'Energy Gathering Realm.'

'Age?'

'21.'

'That weak?! With such cultivation, it's no wonder he's considered trash by the Imperial Family.'
