He was a direct subordinate of Lord Jaffrey. He had another name, a title under his master, EXECUTIONER.
...
"What is that supposed to mean? And why are your clothes so dirty??" Ian asked in a furious tone
He was already quite annoyed with the pressure of mission which was putting his life on the line.
He could not bear to have bullshit from Harry. Also, Harry smelled really foul at the moment which made it worse for Ian's already foul temper.
"Wait, is that? Is that blood that I am smelling from you??" Ian asked in surprise
Suddenly, Ian recalled the title of the rogue like man in front of him. Even though that guy called him Sir and generally gave respect to Ian, he was a mad killer, famed for his cruelty against nobles.
Ian had his mood changed in an instant. He had gone from furious to nervous very quickly. Ian looked at Harry warily. His post nut clarity had helped him to analyze the situation.
"You have got quite the sense for someone who does not battle much in life. It is impressive." Harry said casually when he saw Ian change his tone after realising Harry's condition.
...
Harry was indeed dressed badly and his body and attire smelled of blood, blood of the people he had just hunted down.
"Why are you here? " Ian backed down from his place
He was expecting the worst at the moment. It felt to him that karma was real and had come to him very quickly.
"Ohh quiet down, I was on a mission and had some spare time after completing it. So, I thought of taking a small break at your place. Your house was on the way so, I hope you don't mind my short stay here." Harry said annoyed with Ian's repeated questioning
'He is a scaredy cat. If I had a mission to dispose of him then I would not have waited this long. I am not someone who likes to listen to everyone's last wishes.' Harry thought as he began to look down on Ian
'What on the way? We all live in the capital. The difference between our homes is not more than a few kilometers, at most it is ten kilometers. Who would believe your bullshit reason?' Ian thought to himself
It was obvious that Harry was lying to him. There was no way someone like Harry did not have the time to travel a few kilometers with his level of strength. It was an mockery of excuse from Harry.
"Yeah anyways, eighteen of them. So, some backup of the guy that you killed was to spread the information about the Erica mission in case he was silenced by you or us." Harry explained woth a grave expression
"Did that guy do it? I searched his body before disposing him." Ian said nervously
Ian was scared that the guy might have implicated his name already. If the Royal forces were tp know of that, Ian would be instantly taken down.
...
"Yeah, the smartass did. Unfortunately because of that one guy I had to kill eighteen more, poor people." Harry sighed
"You killed everyone of them???" Ian asked in shock
He finally understood where the blood on Harry's body was from.
"Ohh Yes, I did, you know his orders are absolute. They were pretty weak to be honest. Most of my time was spend into destroying the evidences which could point it towards me." Harry bragged with a smile
"I hope you do your mission well though, but just in case, I have already mapped out your place. In case, I have to clean up after you." He warned Ian
'So that was his mission? He was sent to clean up those warriors and erase all the evidence from their place. Just in case, Harry also came up here in my office and checked for any evidence before giving me a warning about the consequences of failing a mission.' Ian understood Harry's intentions
He had already gotten a clear warning from Jaffrey. So, it seemed to him that Harry had just come to him to erase any evidence he found in his place.
Be it from that guy from the devil hunters or something that Ian had against Jaffrey, Harry was supposed to destroy all the evidence.

"Ummm stop, not now." Natasha mumbled while her soft lips were touching another pair.
