The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World



[The Boss that you will need to eliminate in this trial is the Upsilon Empire's Emperor.]

[You have 6 hours to kill the Boss of this trial.]

Aiden looking at the message wasn't that surprised since he had kind of anticipated it.

Why would the <Trial Objective> be of killing all the generals, if he wasn't going to kill the emperor at the end?

Aiden thought that it was a fitting ending to the trial which made sense.

But, now there was a big problem for him.

How would he kill the emperor, if the Empire was on alert with soldiers and guards in the streets?

Aiden assumed that the emperor was in the castle since that was the safest place in the Empire, as he couldn't see any other buildings which had that defense.

It made sense as every single Emperor that existed would want to stay safe and let his soldiers fight for him.

'How am I going to infiltrate the castle?'

That was the question kept asking himself as he had absolutely no idea, the first time he had got in by the garden but it was probably going to be even more secure this time.

The only solution that came to his mind was to kill one of the soldiers roaming the streets and change into what they wore.

It was the only thing that Aiden had thought of and because the soldiers had helmets on their heads, it would be impossible for the soldiers to recognize Aiden. 

In fact, even if he didn't have a helmet on his head it wouldn't have changed anything as no one knew about him and what he looked like.

But he couldn't really roam the streets in normal clothes as no other normal citizens were doing so since they were all hiding in their homes.

So he decided that was the plan for him, disguise himself as a soldier and infiltrate the castle.

He now came back from the woods leaving behind the body of Matthew, the last general that he needed to kill which was once again decapitated in one quick strike to the neck.

As he was getting closer to the city, he started slowing down and was now trying to find a prey that was alone so that he could kill him swiftly.

Then, when he arrived, he decided to roam in the streets surrounding the main one where is was walking earlier as there were a lot fewer people in them which was what he wanted.

As he entered one of the streets, he noticed that there wasn't anyone on the street which meant that it was the perfect place for him to wait for a soldier to come.

He decided to wait beside a house that hid him completely from both sides of the streets.

The only thing he needed to do now was wait for a soldier to come.

After five minutes of waiting, a lone soldier was entering the street completely alone as he was probably trying to find the man who had killed two of the generals.

Well, three but they didn't know that yet.

As soon, as the soldier started advancing a little, Aiden was now already behind him as he had used his movement to arrive behind him as fast as possible.

As he got behind the soldier, he prepared his dagger preparing to do one clean strike to his neck but as the man was wearing armor it was a little bit more complicated for Aiden.

But the armor was moving up and down every step the man took which revealed a gap in his armor every time he took a step forward.

Noticing this, Aiden waited for him to take a step for him to perfectly time his strike and kill him instantly without putting blood on the armor as that would alert the others if they saw blood on the armor of another soldier.

*Slash*

Then, the head of the soldier dropped on the floor cleanly without putting any blood onto the armor.

[You have killed a soldier of the Upsilon Empire.]

[You have obtained 150 XP.]

Aiden didn't care about the messages from the system as he ignored them and simply waited to put on the armor as fast as possible and finish the task.

After all, he only had five hours left to kill the emperor before the trial would be considered as failed which would result in his death.

Without waiting for another second, Aiden took the armor off his dead body and put it on his own.

After putting the helmet on, he quickly closed it hiding his face.

Then, it was time for him to go back to the castle and enter it.

He hoped that his disguise would work or else he would have to fight the entire empire at the same time.

He decided to go back to the main street of the city which had the fastest access to the castle and he started walking toward it.

He was acting like all the other soldiers that were there as he started walking the same way as them.

Nobody questioned him as he seemed to be part of them.

'Yes, it worked!' thought Aiden, celebrating inside of his mind.

There weren't any reasons why it wouldn't work but it still felt great that his idea was going well.

Then as he kept getting closer and closer to the castle, he kept seeing soldiers coming out of it.

Nobody was going inside of it which was going to be a problem for Aiden as he needed to get into the castle and not out of it.

As he was getting closer to the main gate, two guards were on each side and started questioning why he was coming back to the castle.

"You there, why do you want to go inside the castle?" asked one of the guards.

Aiden knew that he had to lie and quickly at that, he couldn't doubt his answer as he was so close to his goal.
