In a large bed room glowing with beautiful lights ,Karaka stood before the body of a male figure clad in pajamas sprawled lifelessly on a king sized bed.. Blood traced from the abdomen of the dead figure and painted the white sheets of the bed with red spots..
With a wide grin plastered on his sociopathic face ,Karaka clicked his tongue annoyingly as he wiped the blood off his hands with a napkin.
"Contract completed" The assassin turned around , about to walk away from the dead body sprawled lifelessly on the ground, when a notification popped up on his retina...
His Id slot AI had informed him of an anonymous source requesting for the death of a particular individual making popular waves in the United Federation recently...
One would have thought Karaka would accept the contract, however he decided to reject it without even reading the whole message...
"What do those nincompoops think I am?.. Although I know that the operations of the Dark web are completely covert and no one can trace our operations back to us, why would I take the risk of attacking someone who is the disciple of the Sword Blade..." He rumbled incessantly until another notification, this time detailed , from the same anonymous client appeared before him, this time with the amount of money he would receive were he to accept the offer .
"With this amount of money I can retire from being an assassin and spend the rest of my life relaxing in some vacation house... I do not know who this Lucas Grimstone offended, however it's quite unfortunate that this offer is too tempting for me to reject".. Karaka grinned ominously , then turned around and left the room...

Lucas POV...
I knew the wilderness Survival practical assessment would be anything but smooth...
After the dangers I experienced during my mission at the diabolic beast zone of the Oslon City academy , I had learned that in this world, I had to account and prepare for the unexpected...
And talking about the unexpected , concerning the diabolic beast zone, I had to be prepared for situations such as ridiculously strong beasts , arrogant young masters and jade beauties aiming for my life, or some lackeys from the Slyrax guild sent again to deal with me. There was a saying after all, Once bitten, twice.... yeah .. you know the rest.. ahem..
..
However there was one problem.., the wilderness assessment would be the next day ...
Was I prepared for all the factored circumstances I had assumed could befall me?...
With a sigh, I checked my status ...

..
I did not doubt that I could stand toe to toe with even B rankers due to my multiple number of skills from different affinities...
However I was not naive to let down my guard...
Just then, something crossed my mind ..
Amanda was very weak on her own and therefore,she could do nothing against me... But what of the White Witch, Lordina her elder sister... she had some sort of broken affinity that could render me useless for a short period of time.
Knowing how vengeful she was and how she dotted on my ex girlfriend who happened to be her younger sister , she would probably try to sneak into the diabolic beast zone and take revenge for me "humiliating her younger sister".
Was I overthinking?... or overreacting...?... Well, I had to be prepared for anything... I could not afford to die because I overlooked something that was possible... Not after coming this far ... Not after knowing that I had limitless talent to evolve and become powerful to control my own fate...
But how would I hold a candle against her affinity..?..
'Right?.. Have I even tried on the black suit armor...?..
Surely a gift from a World Will would be anything but ordinary ...
Maybe it can help me hold a candle against Lordina Cane?"... I just had a very good feeling about the armor...
Quickly ,I proceeded towards the black suit armor shimmering with intricate patterns ...
Just when my hand touched the armor, it started to liquify into a black mass of grotesque liquid and encroach my hand, then gradually wrapped around my body completely....
Before I was able to process what had happened, a notification from the AI of my ID slot appeared on my retina
[ .. Unknown armor has been permanently bound to the owner "Lucas Grimstone".... Scanning for suitable name for armor .... Suitable name for armor generated ... Armor of Decimation....
Armor of Decimation has been permanently bound to the owner "Lucas Grimstone"]
I proceeded to check the details of the armor .

"This .....is so overpowered ...At this point...I might as well be an S ranker...in a C ranker's body..."... I chuckled , bewildered by the unexpected turn of events...
"It looks like tomorrow's assessment will be fun after all"... I mused...
