Chapter 1100: Chapter 379: Taking Action (Part 2)

“Hello everyone, I am Rein, the newly appointed Fine Gold Swordsman.” Rein nodded slightly in greeting, then said, “Please tell me about yourselves first.”

“Claire, Magic Iron Level, First Level Wizard at Peak, proficient in Fire Element.” Claire was the first to speak.

“Beyonce, Secret Silver Level, Ranger, proficient in bows and daggers.”

“Mia, Secret Silver Level, Second Level Wizard at the initial stage, proficient in Charming system and Negative Energy system.” After speaking, Mia winked at Rein, smiling sweetly.

“Chandler, Magic Iron Level, First Level Wizard at Peak, proficient in Earth Element.”

“Hmm? Both of you are Magic Iron Level? I remember my recruitment criteria seemed to require Secret Silver Level, right?”

“Uh….. Captain Rein, my capability is actually quite good, not worse than an average Secret Silver Swordsman, you can test my combat strength if you don’t believe me.”

“If it truly doesn’t work, can I leave then?” Claire stood up slightly excitedly and said.

Rein glanced at Claire, then looked at the others, saying, “Forget it! You’ve all been hired.”

“Hmm?” This made Beyonce and Claire look at each other involuntarily.

So casual?

No assessment?

This made both feel that the rumors about Rein were very likely true.

“Captain Rein, shouldn’t you also demonstrate your strength?” At this moment, Mia said with a smile.

Although she knew some things about Rein, she hadn’t seen Rein in action, so naturally, she wanted to evaluate it.

Beside her, Beyonce also nodded, saying, “Yes, Captain Rein, there’s a training ground next door, we’re looking forward to seeing your strength.”

“Haha, no need for the training ground, I’m in a bit of a hurry. As for demonstrating strength? That will be right here.”

In the next second, Rein’s figure at the front remained unmoved, but suddenly, four Rein figures appeared in the room, standing beside each other in different postures.

Even the fastest-reacting Ranger, Beyonce, was aghast, with her dagger only half drawn.

Soon, however, all four figures disappeared.

Leaving only Rein’s original figure on the field.

What Rein just displayed was the Top Secret Technique: Shadow Step, though he hadn’t exerted full effort.

“Instant Clone Technique?” Chandler exclaimed.

Wizards capable of cloning techniques have extremely strong survival abilities, making them very difficult to kill.

“It’s not a Cloning Technique, it’s a type of movement Secret Technique.” Mia said in a deep voice.

But this also means difficult opposition, requiring restriction of the opponent’s movement speed.

Mia’s eyes flickered as she was already thinking of countermeasures.

At this point, the four had no more objections.

In fact, only Beyonce and Claire initially had doubts.

As for Mia and Chandler, regardless of Rein’s strength, they would join.

“By the way, do you know why there are so few people signing up to join my team?” Rein asked appropriately.

At the same time, he sensed slightly lingering on the four.

“Well…. there are outside rumors that Captain Rein’s strength is not remarkable, is just lucky enough to….” The Blue Robed Witch Claire hesitated and said tactfully.

“Haha, I see.”

Rein had already noticed, the two named Mia and Chandler, just a moment ago, their aura had a very subtle disarray.

Disarray is different from fluctuation.

However…

Further probing is required.

Minutes later, the four signed the team joining agreement.

At this point, Rein spoke, “Get ready, two hours later, we need to complete a task.”

“Uh? So soon? Captain, shouldn’t we practice a bit?” Claire was both surprised and puzzled.

This doesn’t follow the usual new team routine.

Shouldn’t there be some time for practice before heading for the task?

“Captain Rein, what’s the exact task? So we can prepare accordingly for battle.” Beyonce asked.

“To kill the Poison Liquid Flying Dragon.”

“What!” The two women were instantly shocked.

Though Mia and Chandler pretended to be shocked as well, Rein’s acute perception still caught a hint of hesitation and deliberate act.

This made Rein slightly perceptive.

“Two hours later, see you at the headquarters airship platform.” Rein first exited the room.

Beyonce and Claire looked at each other for a long while, naturally aware that this was one of the most difficult tasks within headquarters.

Though Rein’s previously demonstrated strength was not bad, it was merely decent, reaching the level of an average Fine Gold Swordsman, but far from sufficient for dealing with the Poison Liquid Flying Dragon.

At this moment, Claire asked Mia, “Won’t you… persuade the captain?”

“Hehe, have faith in the captain’s strength.” Mia giggled before leaving with Chandler.

…

Meanwhile.

Greenwood and Drum Family’s butler Owen met in a carriage at the entrance of Sword Holder Headquarters.

“Sir Owen, does uncle intend to hire the Black Blade Organization?” Greenwood frowned slightly and asked.

To him, his current plan was almost flawless, ensuring any family advisor’s action would suffice with certainty.

“Yes, the Duke has contacted the Black Blade Organization, and they will dispatch a King of Assassins.”

“Is that so? Alright, I understand.” Greenwood’s initially tight frown loosened.

It seems uncle hasn’t underestimated Rein.

A King of Assassins, only those who have successfully assassinated a Legendary Strongman earn this title.
