The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Chapter 53 Infiltrating The Castle [Part 5]

?

He went past a couple of rooms that indicated girl names, which he didn't enter for obvious reasons.

He stopped at every room where the name of a boy was written and saw if the system would tell him if the man was a general.

But he didn't have any success in the last two rooms he had entered. 

'They'll probably be in the rooms which are further away,' thought Aiden as they weren't any options for them.

He hadn't seen them come out of the castle, so he was sure that at least to out of three of them were still there inside this place.

He had no information on the third one but he hoped that he was also there as it would simplify his task not having to search for him in the city.

After walking for a bit, he saw another room on which a boy's name was written on the door, the name was Andrew Miller.

'Miller?' thought Aiden as he remembered that the first general he had killed was also a Miller.

This meant that there were good chances that the man inside of this room would a general.

He didn't waste any time as he started opening the door carefully just like he had done previously.

And it was the exact same scene, the man who was sleeping had his back turned from Aiden.

Aiden did the same thing as before and crept up to see the face of the man.

Then as he saw his face, another message appeared in front of him.

[You have detected one of the generals that you need to kill.]

Seeing this, Aiden prepared his dagger as he did a swift move with it decapitating yet another general with ease which cause Aiden to think about what Maelis had said before he left for his trial.

'She said that the trial wouldn't be easy, but the enemies that I kill are really weak. I'm alone it just doesn't make sense for the trial to be this easy,' thought Aiden wondering whether or not Maelis had exaggerated trying to convince them not to go.

'I guess it's different and all that, but is it really hard?' thought Aiden who was unsure about it.

He admitted that it was completely different from the first trial as he had been thrown into a completely different and under a persona of someone who lived there, but the trial by itself wasn't that hard.

As he was thinking about that in his head, he prepared his dagger as he would once again kill yet another general sleeping.

*Slash*

[You have killed a general of the Upsilon Empire (3/4)]

[You have gained 1000 XP.]

[You have leveled up.]

[You need 3000 XP to level up.]

[You have no gained points from the kill since you are alone in this trial.]

[The <Trial Objective> is progressing.]

Aiden had now leveled up three times since the start of the trial, but in the situation he was in right now, it probably wasn't the best time for him to check his status and upgrade his stats.

He decided to wait until he left the castle to do so as he would be safe from any people suddenly seeing him. 

Even if it was unlikely that someone would enter this room as it was night, he didn't want to take the chance of getting caught off guard.

Then, he started walking toward another room but it wasn't a success as they weren't any general inside of it.

Actually, Aiden didn't even know if he was going to find the last one here, as he had only seen two this morning.

He continued checking all the rooms but it wasn't a success as the system never recognized one of the generals.

He had now checked all of the rooms and he hadn't spotted the last general.

'Just where the hell can I find the last one?' thought Aiden as he had no idea about where he could go to find him.

He was kind of sad since he would now have to search for him which was going to be extremely difficult because of how vast their Empire was.

He, also, thought of going into the room of the emperor but he didn't know who it was and the rooms all looked the exact same which meant that he had no idea of knowing which room was his.

As he thought about that, he now had no choice but to think about how he would be able to get out of there.

'By the window? Or maybe the generals have some clothes that I could disguise myself with,' thought Aiden as he went toward the closet of the room of Andrew Miller wanting to check if he had any clothes for him.

But there weren't since all the clothes inside their closet were made for much bigger people than Aiden who was quite slim and didn't have much muscle which was completely different from thetwo generals who were extremely massive.

Having no other choices, Aiden decided that his best bet would be to jump out of the window.

Because if he went downstairs then the guards would alert everyone that there was an intruder in the castle.

He got closer to the window as he started to open it slowly trying to make as little noise as possible.

However, as he kept opening the window some small creaking noise could be heard.

*Creak*

It wasn't loud by any means but because it was completely silent inside the castle, the guards who were downstairs seemed to have heard it as Aiden started hearing footsteps of people going upstairs.

Having no other choice he jumped down as fast as possible as he started running toward the fence as he started climbing it as quickly as possible.

By the time the guards had reached the top of the staircase Aiden was nowhere to be seen.

However, the window that was open was seen by all the guards who found it kind of weird.

The real problem was when they would discover the corpses of two of the generals in their own rooms.
