That night, after Ilmi brought Sei Itō out of the hotel, he casually picked up a mission from the mission list and brought Sei Itō out of the city. After arriving at the location of the mission in the cheapest way possible, Ilmi handed a stack of documents to Sei Itō and said:
"Go in and assassinate this guy."
"What do you mean?" Sei Itō asked, confused.
"Assassination isn't something that can be learned just by teaching, so you have to learn it through practice. That's your first goal," Ilmi said expressionlessly.
"But I don't even know anything about assassination. How am I supposed to do it?" Sei Itō frowned and said with dissatisfaction.
"Only by experiencing it firsthand will you be able to grasp it better. That's how you learn how to assassinate an enemy," Ilmi explained.
"…" Sei Itō was speechless after hearing Ilmi's words. Then, he recalled the limited amount of information about Hunters in his memory. It seemed like this was how he learned how to assassinate an enemy. For example, Kiyaba started going out on missions when he was five years old and continued for a year until he was six years old before he went to challenge the Sky Arena Tower.
Ito Sei helplessly looked at the information in his hand under the light. Debacrost, the director of a company in this city. Although he wasn't a good person, he wasn't a bad person either. To sum it up, he was an ordinary person, just a rich ordinary person.
He had three bodyguards and a bodyguard captain. According to the information, the captain had already started studying, but he didn't take the Hunter license test. He could be considered a Hunter level expert who wasn't a Hunter yet.
"Hey, even if you want to learn through practice, you don't have to be so difficult right from the start," Sei Itō shook the documents in his hand.
"You're already a Hunter," Ilmi said in the same tone as before, leaving Sei Itō speechless.
In the end, Sei Itō had no choice but to seriously study the information provided by the enemy and come up with a few plans in his mind. Only then did he take action under the cover of the night.
Sneaking in was a technical job. It wasn't as simple as hiding from people and guarding against being discovered by dogs like ancient bandits. Nowadays, there were many things to learn when it came to infiltration. Other than anti-infrared, anti-camera, and anti-thermal tracking, there was also the primitive art of hiding from people and dogs. Now, there was also the art of hiding from psychic senses.
One could imagine that being a Thief in the Hunter's World was also a skill.
Fortunately, Sei Itō had also mastered telekinesis. He used Absolute and Invisibility to easily evade the heat and telekinesis. Then, he moved with the wind to hide his scent. After that, he had to sneak around in the dark to avoid patrols. When they finally entered the building, they had to learn how to quickly find their target and choose a hiding spot.
When Sei Itō finally found his target, Sei Itō hesitated. After all, Sei Itō couldn't cut off his emotions and kill someone he didn't have any enmity with. So, Sei Itō didn't know what to do.
While Sei Itō was feeling conflicted, he couldn't control his concealment well and was discovered by the bodyguard captain who was always by his target's side.
"Who is it? Come out!" At the same time, the hidden weapon in his hand was already flying towards Sei Itō.
Sei Itō immediately retracted his thoughts and dodged the hidden weapon, exposing himself to the air.
"Who are you?" The bodyguard captain asked.
"The person who will kill you." Sei Itō replied expressionlessly.
"Arrogant. Even if you don't say it, I can guess. It must be that bitch, Lily, who sent you here." The bodyguard captain said disdainfully. The Lily he was talking about was the ex-wife of Debacrost's son. She was the lover of the current leader of this city's underground organization. She was a prostitute who sold her body for vanity.
"Think what you want." Sei Itō said. Taking advantage of the bodyguard captain's disdain, he attacked with his dagger.
The two of them quickly exchanged blows in the room. As for the old man, Debacrost, he ran out of the room through a secret passage while the two of them were fighting.
Both of them were psychic experts. However, one of them didn't know his element, while the other knew and used it to his advantage. The bodyguard captain's element was strengthening. His attack and defense were both very strong. So, he was able to suppress Sei Itō. Fortunately, Sei Itō didn't only rely on his psychic abilities. So, for the time being, Sei Itō didn't have any restraints on him.
However, Sei Itō wasn't easy to deal with. Although the bodyguard captain was just a minor character, he was still a psychic expert. His strengthening effect was very obvious. Sei Itō felt pain all over his body.
"I can't continue like this." Sei Itō thought of a countermeasure. He quickly waved the dagger in his hand and slashed at his opponent's arm. "Ding!" A crisp sound rang out. This was a dagger that had been strengthened by psychic power. Yet, it couldn't hurt his opponent. It was clear how powerful his strengthening effect was.
Seeing this, Sei Itō decisively retreated. He put away the dagger in his hand and assumed the stance of Bajiquan. Since you want to fight me head-on, I'll fight you head-on. I don't believe that you won't be hurt after I inject my Qi into your body.
Seeing that Sei Itō had changed his fighting style, the bodyguard captain looked down on Sei Itō even more. He rushed up with a sinister smile and punched at Sei Itō's head with his powerful Qi. He wanted to kill Sei Itō in one hit.
Itō Sei quickly dodged the opponent's fist, and then lowered his waist in a horse stance and threw out a straight punch. The whole body's strength was gathered at the end of the fist, and the Qi was hidden behind the strength. He punched the opponent's chest.
"Bang!" A dull sound of collision rang out. The bodyguard captain patted his chest indifferently and tapped it lightly. It was obvious that his attack was too weak.
This was one of the weaknesses of strengthening-type people. They relied on their strong defense to not defend against certain attacks at all.
A sneer flashed in the corner of Ito Sei's mouth. He stepped forward and gathered his strength in his fists. With Ito Sei's attack, the strength gradually spread to the upper body of the bodyguard captain.
"Alright, it's time to end this." The bodyguard captain was a little impatient. He originally wanted to delay Sei Itō and let his boss leave before quickly finishing him off. He didn't expect Sei Itō to be as flexible as a loach.
"It's time to end this." Sei Itō said coldly. His fist suddenly turned into a palm and stuck to the bodyguard captain's body in a strange way. Then, a violent Qi rushed into the bodyguard captain's body and attacked his body.
The bodyguard captain's expression changed. He felt that when he used his telekinesis, he suddenly became sluggish. His control also became a lot more difficult. Moreover, various parts of his body were affected by the Qi that suddenly rushed into his body, triggering waves of fluctuations and creating hidden injuries.
"Wah!" The bodyguard captain couldn't help but spit out a large mouthful of blood. Small pieces of flesh could also be seen in the blood.
"Bastard." The bodyguard captain cursed, forcefully using his telekinesis which had already become somewhat difficult to understand. Sei Itō slid to dodge the opponent's attack. Then, he unleashed a series of fist techniques. Every move landed on the bodyguard captain's body, until the last punch landed on the bodyguard captain's heart … …
"Bang!" The lifeless corpse powerlessly fell to the ground. Sei Itō took a breath and followed the passageway to find his target.
When Sei Itō followed the passageway to a dark room, he saw Debacroth's corpse powerlessly sitting on a chair. His hands were hanging down and his face was filled with disbelief. Beside him stood Ilfan, who was dressed in black.
