Chapter 1 -Prologue

Someone pov

While I was walking the wind hit my face "sigh" the wind is cold now because it's winter season so people are often in bars or at home the beauty of the night and I just finished my mission I passed through a dark alley and in it's at the end and there's a door so I went in there and I was almost blinded by the blinding light there were a lot of people because it was a bar I went straight to the front seat when I sat down Liam looked at me and winked at me as he poured the wine into the glass and held it to me and I smelled it before I drank it because it smells good

Liam Fritz secretary of Agatha guild or

A. K. A spy guild and a sorcerer green hair tied with a black ribbon and piercing green eyes like those of cats

"How is mission Selene" he asked me softly so I looked at him while still drinking the wine

"it's the same" I said cutely and he laughed softly to me Liam is like a brother for me because he became my first friend

I'm Selene knightfall I'm a commoner but I was bought by someone who just wanted to take advantage of me so in return I killed the person who bought me and lived alone so I became independent and I'm a swordmaster and I'm the best spy I have blue long hair and I love to tie it up

"I guess your next mission will be a bit difficult" so my eyebrows raised

"immediately, I haven't eaten yet" it's hard to run away from missions, especially when you're caught as a spy

"go there, I'll go to your house to bring you food" he said to me with his gentle voice and he rubbed my head

"Yes, I'm going" I stood up and drank the last of the wine left in my glass and left the front seat and went to the basement of the bar and turned on the light so it opened a door and I entered there and saw the president of the agatha guild

Fie Seymour leader of Agatha guild or shadow fie is a duke of the callulus kingdom and an ice mage but she is a woman she always crossdresses and only those she trusts know that She is women always wears a mask whenever she talks to other shadows I look at her smiling and came to his desk pile of darkfiles that we shadows take and collected as he looked at me while leaning down

"I have a new mission master" I asked him with a smile but he just looked at me seriously and took a breath before speaking

"I heard in your last mission that you killed a dozen guards, how many times do I have to tell you ------- yes we are shadows and not assassins" I stopped what he was going to say

"Sigh, give me an explanation why you killed them" he looked at me seriously while his voice was still angry I scratched my head before answering

"I can't do anything. I can't escape. If I don't make trouble," I explained sacrificially and he nodded his head, finally he wasn't angry anymore.

"I understand that at least they still haven't discovered the killer and that's you" pointed at me and I bowed a little to finish this I'm really tired

"I'm sorry, it's my fault next time I won't rush anymore and do anything that destroyed our guild" and he nodded and smiled

"You're tired, so what? I'll tell you about the next mission" he handed me the contract paper and a mana recorded

*MANA means magical stone used for magic*

I took and read the contract

"that contract is anonymous but I researched about it and found out that it came from the Imperial family" and I nodded because the Imperial rarely gives a request and usually assassination is done to us nobles who try to hide their true colors

When my eyes widened at the last word in the contract

"you're freely to die if you caught" I wet and hit the table with the contract and looked at fie

"Why, I have to be killed" I asked Him and he looked at me seriously

"then who do you want to die If you can't do the mission the life of the agartha guild depends on you the life of other spies, my life and especially Liam's life. who do you want to sacrifice if you don't want to die don't be late our life depends on you "

He's serious Dude and I suddenly fell silent and thought of my figure dying and Liam's face entered my mind I looked at Fei seriously and grinned as I clenched my fist tightly

"ha-ha-ha I'm scared who do you think I am, I'm the only one selene is the best shadow I'm afraid to die no I won't back down"

I pointed to myself and fie smiled and held the contact and gave it to me and I took it to sign

..."You done enough, Selene when you finish your new mission I will give you a 3 month break" he said happily and my eyes lit up because this is from the imperial...
