The glorious color of blood, the silent cry of death...

"Yes... I see them all."

With the opening of the Spirit's Seal, the huge amount of Qi that flocked to his body made everything clear to him. The world was completely under their feet.

He had been working day and night for years, but he could not open the second acupuncture point. Had it not been for his will of steel, he would have committed suicide or been eliminated from the camp. Neither way out was good for him.

He looked at Herald his heart ripped out.

He knew that the heaviest thing in this world was life. The weight of a life was too much. To kill someone meant to kill the humanity within him. But he wasn't in a position to care about that right now. He began to think about the powers he had just acquired.

It's been a long time since mastered Shadow Blow, Wind Blow, Shadow Step, Heartbreaker and Kunai Beat. Now that he had leveled up, he could use other abilities. He could now use Shadow Claw, Ghost Step, Smokescreen, Shadow Twin, Shadow of Darkness, Jade Hands and Moonlight.

These abilities were high-level assassination techniques that every Shadow Priest in the Shadow Cathedral should know.

He had now broken through the huge wall that had stood in front of him for years. Alexander had strange feelings. For years he had followed the strange upbringing guidance he had received from the Hidden Dragon's Lair and had turned to the Spirit Seal instead of Cloud's Door.

It had cost him a lot of time and caused him untold suffering. Now he had gained power beyond the imagination of others. Although he was only at the second level, he could fight warriors at the fourth level.

'I may be slower than others. But that doesn't mean I'm less talented than them. It just means that the pool I have to fill is bigger than others.'

Finally, he understood the truth a little better.

He looked at his hands. Jade Hands, which he worked with every night in the hope of getting stronger, was automatically activated. Any attack he would make with his hands would be no different from what he did with a knife. His hands were like weapons now.

The screams broke out and the blood stained the soil. When Alexander woke up from his power intoxication, he saw Noah holding his belly and approaching him. There was a strange excitement in his eyes. He was overjoyed. He was happy that Alexander had leveled up.

"You've finally achieved your goal."

"This is just the beginning."

The fight between Alexander and Herald came as a shock to everyone. Herald, who had sacrificed his humanity to become stronger, had lost to Alexander, who had learned all the assassination techniques to the highest level. Although the war between them did not last long, it was a lesson for everyone.

Alexander was the most powerful member of the group.

"Collect the corpses and set fire to the castle. We will leave this place shortly." Alexander gave new orders. Graham didn't make a noise this time, but he did glance at his partner. When he saw the look in his eyes, he felt strange for a moment.

Natasha was the most beautiful of the girls in the group. She had hair like coal and eyes like plum blossoms. Her body had matured early because of her training. It would not be wrong to say that this was a stone-cold fox.

The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

She was not without her downsides.

For example, she was very cold. Even Graham, who confessed to her, was brutally rejected. He couldn't force her, because they were equal in power.

But now...

She cut Alexander with an enchanted expression.

There was no trace of his facial expression, which resembled the glacial lands of the north.

Graham took a deep breath. Seeing this scene made them forget the pain of his wounds. His anger swelled even more. He began to hate Alexander even more. But he couldn't beat him with hatred alone. He had to turn that into power.

When he returned to the camp, he decided to do more training.

---

Alexander had carried out a perfect execution. The mission had achieved its purpose and all traces had been erased. Most importantly, all the team members who came with him were alive. Although some were seriously injured, the important thing was that they were alive.

After Shadow gave him a few bottles of pills and body solution, he checked his level. Now that he had finally reached the second level, he could choose a main weapon for himself.

Each Shadow Priest had to master three different weapons: a main, a lower, and a support weapon. For example, everyone's lower weapon was the short sword. As a support weapon, Kunai or star was used.

They were trained by the camp, but the main weapon was different. Principal weapon training was left entirely to the individual.

In the Shadow Cathedral there were not only special medicines and techniques. There were also special weapons, each from the other. As a mission reward, he had the privilege of choosing a weapon without restrictions.

Alexander was excited. In the end, Noah would have a weapon of his own, like the Silver Silk, which he won thanks to his superior performance. Was it possible that he wouldn't get excited?

The next day, before sunrise, Shadow took him to a warehouse hidden under the mountain. This was a warehouse that belonged to the Shadow Cathedral. It was completely different from the Black Dragon Depot in quality and features.

Each camp would have its own warehouse. This camp, which was created to train the Shadow Cardinal, had the highest quality warehouse among them. It had weapons of all kinds and qualities.

"You have three hours to choose your own weapon. Inside are dozens of weapons of four different types. Since you will only choose one of them, you need to choose the one that suits you best. Since this is a mission reward, you will not have any restrictions. But my advice to you is not to be greedy. Next to each weapon is a technique identified with that weapon. You can analyze the techniques first."

After the shadow dropped him in front of the warehouse, he said these things and left.

"Too cruel."

Alexander turned his head to the iron gate under the sign that read 'Shadow Weapons'. Although the sign said 'Shadow Weapons', the inside was like a museum.

Closest to the entrance were large knives with spears. It was held by a wooden partition and had its name written underneath.

Six Nights.

The name of the spear was Six Nights. He was almost as tall as Alexander, which made him taller than the average spear. It had a night-like dark handle, a knife that resembled moonlight. On his knife were finely embroidered runes. It was an imposing sight for the spear, a defensive weapon.

Alexander turned his head to the other weapons and sighed in admiration.

There was a booklet under Six Nights.

The Divine Destruction of the Six Nights.

It was a special spear technique that would allow the weapon to reveal all its capabilities. Unfortunately, Alexander did not intend to use the spear. While he had a great disadvantage indoors, the spear was not suitable for an attack-oriented person like him.

...

He made statements next to the names of all the weapons.

"Moonlight, Lightning Breaker, Dragon Killer, Snowdrop and Asura Katana?"

Alexander suddenly raised his eyebrows as he examined the weapons. He had seen a set of six katanas made of blood-red metal. Six different katanas were wrapped in blood-red glitter. The Katana was a type of weapon that was often used by a group of warriors called samurai in ancient times.

Elysium was notorious as the most powerful sword before it was discovered.

Looking at the Asura Katana, Alexander felt strange feelings recurring in his heart. Every bit of his body was begging to take the Asura Katana.

He was about to touch the sword when he realized the sword technique. Unlike other techniques, the volume of this booklet was black. On it was written 'The Rise of Asura' in blood and red letters. This booklet, which reached the thickness of three fingers, was quite well preserved.

As soon as he touched the booklet, the vortex in the Spirit Seal began to turn madly.

Qi and Shadow Energy reacted with the technique.
