On top of the rooftop of a building, two figures were currently occupied.
One was holding a tablet, watching a feed intently, while the other adjusted a long, black, high-caliber sniper rifle. Carefully dialing the scope and measuring the wind at the same time, ensuring the perfect shot.
"Interesting, I didn't expect to find someone that strong in this city," a woman with short green hair and eyes giggled as she watched everything unfold on the screen.
She was wearing the same white trench jacket as the crazed girl, but her physique was taller and exuded a more mature aura.
Her lips were colored purple, accentuated by heavy makeup that emphasized her eyes.
From start to finish, she had been observing the fight between Reign and her teammates through the lenses that also served as cameras.
She could have provided backup with her own power, but she chose not to intervene. Simply because she found the entire fight fascinating .
"Commander, we just lost 6 members. Why are you smiling?" a short, blonde-haired woman asked, her large circular glasses gave her a geeky appearance. But her well endowed melons hinted at a different side of her.
What was more eye-catching was the fact that she was using those big melons as some kind of support while she lay down on the floor, her chest pressed against the ground as she pointed the sniper towards the Capitol.
The girl with the Sniper was was Fatima, the long distance sniper.
The woman with the green hair on the other hand was Saniya, the Commander of an 8-person team that specialized in high-profile assassinations.
But while some might call it a team, the two women had only joined temporarily and were not part of the original lineup.
They came here from a Tier 2 city, while the other 6 where from Green Valley .
Normally, they would only send one or two people to do a mission like this, because their organization operated on a different level altogether.
For them, killing a Tier 4 City official was not much of a big deal.
However, aside from assassinating the governor, they were also tasked with another job and had to finish it first.
"They're dead anyway, so there's no use thinking about them. I'm more interested in that guy with the bandage. He's really strong and talented. I don't even think he used 30% of his ability in the fight," Saniya replied, her eyes fixed on the screen as she analyzed the footage.
Every time Reign swung his dagger effortlessly, the grin on her face widened.
It was beautiful, how easily he killed his enemies with minimal movements.
She was under the impression that Reign had trained for decades, becoming a master of his own art to perform such precise movements.
It had never occurred to her that he was just too overpowered compared to his enemies. Casually swinging his dagger was more than enough to kill them.
And it was the hard cold truth.
He didn't even have to think about how to move his dagger; he just swung it using his instinct.
So, she redirected her focus, pointing her sniper rifle once again and peering through the scope.
There, she saw the crazed girl being carried on a stretcher.
BANG!
A loud sound echoed through the air, and in the next moment, the pink-haired girl's head exploded, ending her life instantly.

"What happened?" Aiku exclaimed, attempting to go back and see what happened, but Reign firmly held her arms.
"Are you crazy? Do you want to get headshot too?" he scolded her.
Judging from the sound, he suspected the sniper had relocated to a different position instead of escaping since the initial attempt.
"Governor, it's bad news. The girl who attack you was shot," a police officer reported grimly, delivering the unfortunate update.
'Can't believe they hire these type of incompetent people. What a waste of taxpayer money,' he grumbled in frustration.
They couldn't even catch someone who was carrying a big-ass sniper.
If he hadn't been holding back, he would have already summoned Arc and completely dealt with the sniper.
However, he knew that doing so would create too much commotion.
He couldn't afford to create more panic, afraid that the concert might be cancelled or attended by fewer people.
"Hey, just do your job quickly and let's get out of here. This place is dangerous," he warned Aiku, urging her to be cautious.
"But that girl," she mumbled.
"Forget about her. I will find you a better host in the future. That one is too low quality anyway" Reign reassured her.
"Thank you, Master," she whispered back, ensuring the police officer did not overhear .
With Reign around, catching stronger hosts for her to possess would be very easy.
She wanted to get stronger too. Aiku realized that she wouldn't live long without sufficient personal power of her own.
"Just do your job well if you want me to keep helping you," he responded
