Chereads / Abyss Reincarnation: Darkness / Chapter 23 - Chapter 21

Chapter 23 - Chapter 21

In the city of Luskan in the residential destrict. There lays One eye Jax inn, in the third floor layed Alex's room. He just got out of bed when he heard a knock on his door, his expression changed from suprise to suspicion. There were few people that knew where he lived and fewer that would arrive this early.

He slowly and cautiously made his way to the quickly grabbing his dagger before opening the door.

He saw a red haired woman in a white dress staring outside his door. He immediately knew she was. He put his dagger behind his back. "Good morning Raina! Why are you here?"

"I heard you did what I ask so I came to congratulate you. And to give you something," Raina said as she walked into the room. She had a smile on her face as she out a small wooden box. Alex could not figure out where that box came from but was taken out his thoughts when he heard her placing the box on the table.

"What is that?" he asked. Raina did not answer his question and simply opened the box as if answering his question. Inside the box were two silver keys. Alex was confused when he saw them. He could not figure out if there was some hidden meaning.

"What are those things for?" Alex asked. "Keys...they are keys," she calmly replied. Alex wanted slap himself. He knew they were key what he was trying to figure out was what they were for. She seemed to understand what he was thinking and said, "They are keys to Captain Kurth and Captain Baram's rooms."

That made more sense but the only thing that still confused him was why. "Why are you giving me this?" he asked. "It's simple really I want you to assassinate them?" she asked. He had a look of shock on his face. Alex was not expecting such a request her her.

"And why would I do that?" he asked slightly frowning. She ignored the look on his face and said, "Because they work for the Arcane Brotherhood. And I know for a fact the Zentharim and the Arcane Brotherhood are not friend. Look they will die whether you do it or not but if you do your organisation will definitely reward you."

"Damb she knows!" he shouted internally. After some debating he nodded reluctantly. "Very good," Raina look pleased and was about to walk out the door before she stopped.

"Please wait!" Alex shouted before she could leave. She turned around, "Yes do you need anything?" she still had usual smile as always. She didn't at all seemed is displeased by his action. He could not tell if she was acting or she really didn't care.

"If I am going to do this I need to know how strong they are and what there abilities are?"

She about it for a while before nodding her head. She sat down on a chair nearby, "Kurth and Baram are both Rank 3. So your best bet is to attack them when they least suspect it. That's why I gave you those keys.
