Hero of Darkness-Novel

Chapter 183: Crossing Names

Kahn now sat on a comfortable chair in the middle of the facility, holding the record book about the clientele of this criminal organization who worked as hired killers.

So far, more than a hundred of his employees had died at the hands of this assassination organization and Kahn partially avenged all the innocent employees who died as collateral damage & without even knowing why.

Kahn knew that at the end of the day.. He was the main person responsible who got these innocents mixed into a rivalry they had nothing to do about.

Since it was his first time running a business & having 4 thousand people work for him.. Never had he imagined that someone who had an enmity with only him would hurt the people unrelated to that matter.

All Kahn's plans and precautions were mainly based on his personal safety & the people that were most important to him. But he hadn't factored in the safety of his normal employees when he revolted against the council members of the chamber of commerce who wanted to oppress and bury his company in the ground.

Protecting himself wasn't an issue but now he had become accountable for all the dead people.

Although his choice was sound & reasonable at that time about sparing the lives of those business tycoons..

Kahn learned the hard way that even the good choices have bad consequences.

So after partially avenging all those who died because of this contract.. Kahn was now looking for the one who gave the contact in the first place. Only then would they properly be able to pass.

Kahn checked through pages after pages.. Each page filled with details about people they were hired to kill.

Apparently.. Plenty of business organizations and influential figures used these hired killers to take out the competition and for various reasons.

And when Kahn finally reached the last page after quickly scrambling through, he finally found the list with all the names & details about the clients.

"Danaerys Tarjaerion, Tywin Lansister, Robert Voratheon, Eddard Swarrk, Jorah Borjomir, George M. M. Rartin, Houdini Warsmeich.."

Spoke Kahn as his eidetic memory kicked in and he remembered who these names belonged to.

On that day, he had given a detailed look and memorized the faces of all the members of the main COUNCIL as well as the names written on their respective chairs. And these names belonged to 7 out of the 13 members.

He now knew the exactly responsible people and how they collectively spent 30 million gold coins just to have his company disappear out of existence.

And Kahn could finally move to his next step without killing someone who didn't deserve it.

After an hour, all the new one thousand subordinates were ready.

Armin jumped out of Kahn's shadow and asked.

"Where to now, master?"

"Now.. We cross the names on the list" he replied as decided that it was time for deliverance.

He wasn't a fool to wait for the next day till the news spread about his deeds and the culprits were informed.

So everything had to be done in this single night.

Kahn in his Zeus persona covertly left the facility and moved to his next target's living addresses.

Although there were only 4 hours left till sunrise.. It was enough for Kahn as working in the dark was his specialty already.

---------------

He now stood a kilometer away from a mansion that was even bigger and wider than his own.

Now he had more than a thousand new subordinates in the Legion. So he was anything but short on manpower.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Nearly a hundred assassins, 30 archers and 20 mages came out of his body. All of them were equipped in decent gear and they were past level 80 because of the merging process and Kahn used 20 thousand A Rank cores to upgrade these new subordinates.

The low-level fighters will no longer prove useful to him because even the weakest fighters in Rathna were at least level 45.

"You know the rules, and so do I."

Spoke Kahn as he telepathically commanded the members of Legion about what approach they had to do using the Hive Mind skill.

Including this mansion, the entire property itself was 2 kilometers wide and over 400 armored personnel were at the night patrol.

Kahn commanded all the assassin & thief subordinates to diffuse the alarm traps one by one as his mages & artificers took care of the formations spread around the borders of this estate.

Through the shared vision from the Hive Mind link, he could see everything from afar.

"Remember, don't kill anyone innocent or the guards. Just incapacitate them and infiltrate quietly." ordered Kahn to his assassins.

One by one, all the assassins secretly reached inside the estate and the mages cast a silence barrier so that no one could hear them sneaking inside. Anyone who came close to finding them was either gagged or incapacitated before the guards could be warned.

Just in 20 minutes, Kahn in his Zeus persona stood inside the master bedroom, an alluring & seductively dressed foxkin woman with 9 tails was asleep in her round-shaped emperor-size bed. Completely unaware of the intruder who had a red epic rank dagger in his hand.

She was one of the business tycoons who colluded in the act of hiring the Red Right Hand to have his employees killed since they couldn't directly touch him.

"Wakey, wakey.. Little foxy." spoke Zeus as he slightly released his aura and frightened the female who suddenly woke up as if she received an electric shock.

"You.. Who are you?! How did you get inside? Guards!!!" asked the foxkin as she saw Zeus standing in front of her.

"Shhh! Don't wake up the guards. They're sleeping soundly. They deserve a good nap too." he said and took out a page from his black longcoat.

"You know what this is, right?" asked Zeus with a devilish smile.

"You.. Where did you get it? It was supposed to be kept a secret.." said the foxkin as she shuddered under his vengeful aura.

"The Bloodborne company and its people belong to me. All of them are my possessions." spoke Zeus and increased his aura by twice.

He brandished the daggers and rubbed them against each other as he gave a sinister and wrathful look, filled with nothing but pure bloodlust to this beautiful foxkin woman and spoke..

"And I don't like it when someone touches my possessions."
