Hero of Darkness

s along with providing him intel on the criminals he was killing as Azrael.

”Well, care for another job then? ” asked Kahn nonchalantly.

”Fuck you! Just deliver your contract targets and get the hell out of here! ” bellowed the snakekin.

”Don ’t be so quick to refuse.
Just hear me out. ” said Kahn as he put his dagger in.

”It ’s nothing dangerous and won ’t cause you any harm.
I ’ll even pay you double the price; What do you say? ” declared Kahn.

The snakekin reluctantly put his knife away.

Kahn took a space ring from his finger and threw it to the assassin..

”There are 25 thousand gold coins.
And here ’s what I need you to do.. ”

Kahn left the bar after he explained the task.

Kahn had decided that it was about time he stopped freeloading on Nikola ’s kindness and searched the city for a reputed housing company and through them, he rented a small bungalow near the hillside of the city for living after paying 2000 gold coins as monthly rent.

The reason why he did this because he no longer wanted any eyes on him and could not afford to have the father & son duo being attached to his name.
Because it could bring them unnecessary harm instead.

After having dinner in his new house, made by the chef that was hired to provide his service here; He put Ronin on the guard duty of this place as the Rogue subordinate could hide perfectly and guard his master most efficiently.

Kahn finally embraced the goodnight sleep in his new and extremely comfortable king-size bed.

The next day, he didn ’t leave his new house and spent most of his time eating the cores he received from the snakekin yesterday night and merging few new skills.

Because even though he wasn ’t at Grandmaster Rank yet, many of his skills and combat technique he had met the conditions to rise in rank and were now available to merge with other skills and abilities.

Kahn always gave priority to the most useful skills that he ’d use in a majority of the scenarios so he spent quite some time thinking carefully and how they ’d help him in an actual battle.

By the evening, he was practicing his combat skills and techniques in the huge garden that came as part of this new property.
He was currently covered in sweat and the top of his body was completely exposed..
Revealing his ripped built and pulsating muscles along with his abs.

One of the servants, named Jerome came to Kahn and asked him in a hesitant voice..

”Sir..
Are you the Kahn..
The one everyone is talking about? ” asked Jerome with uncertainty in his eyes..

Kahn simply smirked and questioned back,

”What do you think? ” he carried on with his training without looking back at the servant.

After he had his evening snack..
Kahn decided to mingle in the city again.
He was currently donning a black cloak and hid his face under the hood.

”So, do you believe what they ’re saying about the guy who hunted those minotaurs by himself? ” Kahn heard one of the people sitting on a bench.

”Yeah..
My cousin is also an adventurer.
He said he saw the guy pull out those giant minotaurs from his high-grade space ring in front of hundreds of people.
I heard not long ago that all those monsters were killed by attacks from a sword. ” replied the young man sitting on the other end.

”I heard it as well.
This guy seems to be close to becoming a Grandmaster Swordsman.
Just imagine how strong he must be.
There are only 3 Grandmaster Swordsmen in the entire city for the past 2 decades..
Another one means a big shift in the power balance. ” replied the first guy.

Kahn strolled across the city for miles and heard thousands of people talking about him.
Some rumors even saying that Kahn killed all the minotaurs with a single swing of his sword.
And some were extremely exaggerated to the point that they completely changed his origins to a prodigy from one of the most influential noble houses from the capital who came to gain experience in Flavot city by fighting and hunting inside dungeons.

”I guess my money was well spent. ” he spoke to himself as this was exactly what he paid the snakekin for.

No matter how outstanding his performance was in the association hall..
It won ’t reach to too many people outside of their profession even with hundreds of witnesses.
So Kahn had decided to use the highly reputed Assassin and his information network that was spread around the entire city to spread rumors about him and his deeds about killing so many minotaurs alone.

Why work hard and prove yourself if you want to gain fame?

Who said you can ’t become popular overnight?

Now it was time for Kahn to sit amongst the truly powerful.
