“...... Therefore. The concept of compliance is not something that we assassins should ignore either. Hahaha, of course, since illegal work is our mission, we can’t apply it to everything. That’s why I think. ‘Can’t we become the standard?'”

“Uh-huh, hmm, I see.”

Leading Ambitious, who was walking through the back alley while moving his hands busily and speaking about his vision as if in a trance, Knife Hand was giving appropriate responses.

She originally didn’t get along very well with this Ambitious.

When she hears difficult words, she gets irritated and feels like killing him.

That’s why she left the headquarters and was assigned to Ashgo.

(Well, it’s fine. It’s just temporary patience.)

Since she’s leading, Ambitious can’t see her expression.

So Knife Hand suppressed a yawn and continued guiding Ambitious with a frown on her face.

“Alright, we’re here...... or so.”

Now, after walking through maze-like back alleys for a while, they arrived at a deserted abandoned church.

There are holes in the walls, and grass is growing from the roof.

There’s absolutely no sense of human habitation.

“Hmm, is this the place?”

“Yes, sir. This is the current base...... ‘Ah, the rain was terrible.'”

Knife Hand muttered something strange while holding the bag of bread and entered the tattered door of the abandoned church.

Today’s weather is sunny.

Therefore, that’s some kind of code.

“............”

Hearing that code, Ambitious frowned for a moment but immediately put on his usual smile to cover it up.

He didn’t like that code.

Because he didn’t know such a code.

In other words, it’s something the assassins dispatched to this area had independently established.

And the second reason is the current situation in the Ashgo Kingdom.

This country had a large-scale political change a while ago due to the intervention of demons.

Although they seem to be hiding information to some extent from the citizens, for residents of the underworld like Ambitious, that concealment is sloppy.

With a little investigation, information can be gathered quickly.

Anyway, because the political situation is unstable, the guards in this country are currently very wary.

Ambitious is originally an assassin.

Inevitably, he’s a wanted man.

It’s frustratingly difficult to move around.

Finally, the third reason is the location of this base where he has now arrived.

The base within the Ashgo Kingdom was originally in a different place.

It had been changed without permission.

Even Ambitious was very perplexed by this.

Perhaps the political change mentioned earlier also had an influence, and there was a reason why the location had to be changed...... Anyway, because of that, Ambitious was unable to contact the “Purple Dual Rings” members for a while even after arriving in the royal capital.

Searching, searching, searching...... The one he finally found was Knife Hand.

Anyway.

In order to rebuild the organization, it is necessary to urgently bring the assassins at this second base in Ashgo under his command.

However, due to the three reasons mentioned above, that has been considerably delayed.

Therefore, Ambitious was impatient.

So, he made a fatal mistake.

A mistake that the previous him would never have made.

...... He shouldn’t have had time to worry about the future management of the organization.

He should have thought.

He should have been cautious.

“Ah, the rain was terrible.”

About the meaning of...... this code.
