It has been 2 months since the twin's first date.
It was Saturday day night.
This night was the first time Erika will be going to the underworld with Erik.
Erika was now stronger. She could even put most of the body builders to shame with her strength now.
"Do you really want to go?"
Erik asked her. Erik was still a bit reluctant about taking Erika to the underworld.
But Erika was still stubborn about it.
"Of course, I will go. If you don't want to take than you can't go there either."
"Ok. Do you remember about the things I have told you about what to expect from the underworld and what kind of work we will doing there."
"Yes. I remember it clearly."
"So are you prepared to kill people."
"I am."
"I hope you are. Well you will get over the fear of killing someone after you do it the first time."
Saying that Erik took out a set of clothes from his inventory and put it on the table they were sitting across.
"Here wear this." Erik said.
"What is this?" Erika asked looking at the black set of clothes.
"This is kind of an armored suit. It will protect you from bullets and knives."
Erika then wore the suit and showed it to Erik.
"How does it look?"
"It looks great on you. Oh, you can also change it to whatever clothes you want."
Hearing this Erika changed the suit into the clothes she was comfortable with. The suit changed into a black hoodie and jeans.
"Then shall we go?"
"Yes."

Erik entered the underworld with Erika. They were wearing masks. For Erik it was the mask with golden dragon that he wore previously. For Erika she wore a mask similar to Erik but with dragon being pink in color.
"It looks dark here." Erika commented while looking right and left in the underworld.
"Well dark is the theme here."
They made their way to the reception and Erik started looking at the job notices while Erika was behind him.

Right now Erik and Erika were crawling on the ground being hidden by bushes.
They were hiding in the bushes of a mansion's garden.
Erik had taken a assassination task this time. It gave quite a lot of money. Another reason he took this task was to make Erika get used to killing.
The task was this.
Their task was to kill a businessmen. Their target was a wealthy businessman named Robert Duncan.
Robert Duncan had built his empire on a foundation of corruption and illegal activities, leaving a trail of shattered lives in his wake. He had evaded justice for far too long.
And someone was willing to pay 5M$ for killing him.
Erik had meticulously planned every detail of the operation. The objective was to eliminate Duncan while ensuring their own safety. Erik with his exceptional surveillance skills, had gathered information about his routines, vulnerabilities, and potential weaknesses. Erik was also an expert in infiltration and had devised a plan to gain access to Duncan's heavily guarded estate.
Evading the guards on the outside Erik made his way to the inside of the mansion with Erika behind him.
Erika's stealth skill was low leveled so Erik had to make his way through where the guards were less and be unnoticed.
The moon hung high in the night sky as Erik and Erika, cloaked in darkness, approached Duncan's opulent mansion. They moved with the agility of shadows, their steps silent, and their presence undetected by the vigilant security personnel patrolling the estate.
With precision and synchronized movements, they bypassed the electronic security systems and slipped through the fortified perimeter.
Inside the mansion, Erik and Erika moved stealthily through the corridors, their senses heightened, anticipating any unforeseen obstacles. They had rehearsed every step of their plan, but the weight of the moment was beginning to bear down on them.
As they were making there way through the hallway Erik suddenly halted.
"Stop." Erik said quietly but Erika was able to hear it as she stopped too.
There were two guards coming out of the other side of the hallway.
"You take the right one and I will take the left." Erik said and Erika nodded in confirmation.
Then they hid in the cover of some furnitures and waited for the guards to come close.
As they were close Erik signaled Erika as he quietly stood up and grabbed one of the guards from behind. Erika also did the same as him and grabbed the other guard from behind as the twins choked them knocking them down.
"Let's go. We shouldn't stay here for long."
"Yes."
As they drew closer to Duncan's private study, their hearts raced in unison. The room was bathed in an ethereal glow from a single desk lamp, illuminating Duncan's face as he greedily counted his ill-gotten wealth.
"Arms up." Erik whispered to Erika as she took out a silenced pistol from her inventory as Erik took out what looked like a syringe with some kind liquid inside.
It was a syringe with paralyzing poison inside it. Erik bought it from the system shop. It costed him 1000 SC.
Then Erik sneaked in quietly and quickly. It helped that Duncan was immersed in counting money.
As he sneaked behind him Erik stabbed the syringe on Duncan's neck.
"Wha-!?" Feeling the sudden pain on his neck Duncan stood up from his chair.
He turned around to see Erik with his mask on.
"You! Who are you!? Who sent you here!? Do you know who I am!?" Duncan asked a lot of questions but Erik didn't answer.
Not hearing any answer from him Duncan got made and took out a gun from the drawer of his desk.
He then pointed the gun at Erik intending to shoot him he wasn't able to as the paralyzing effect started.
Duncan's suddenly fell down like doll who had it's strings cut. He wasn't able to move his body and neither talk. He could only glare at Erik.
"Come inside." Erik said as Erika came inside the room pointing the silenced gun at Duncan.
"Now shoot him."
Erik said Erika to shoot Duncan. But she was still hesitating.
