With trepidation, the merchant Kakajie walked into the mission office he had previously reconnoitered.
The place was too quiet, whether it was people like him, ready to post missions, or assassins and mercenaries, there were hardly any figures in sight, not even the staff at the counter numbered more than three or four people.
"Is this really a major office?"
"I've heard that the mission guild's business is dire, but I never expected it to be this bleak. Can killers still take orders in such a scenario?"
Kakajie hesitated.
But then he thought, since he had already come all this way, and it wasn't easy for him to make a trip to Jialan City, he couldn't just return without doing anything, right? Besides, it wasn't certain whether the mission guild would accept his commission.
He then firmed his steps and approached a counter.
"I, I want to post an assassination bounty."
"Okay, Dear, please wait a moment~"
