Chapter 8: The New Assassins

"When others are bound by morality and law, remember...... Anything goes.

Remember when others are blindly searching for the truth...... Nothing is in vain.

We work in the darkness in the service of the light, and we are assassins. ”

Arno stood in front of the stone chair, a group of children knelt down on one knee at the bottom of the steps, but Meghan on the side only touched her chest with one hand and did not kneel on one knee, Arno didn't care, and cleared her throat: "Get up, children, from now on, we are a family, you can call me father in the future, but I prefer you to call me mentor" said and winked at the children who stood up.

Arno turned his head to Donner on the side: "Donner, please distribute the holy water to each child and Megan in turn." ”

Donner nodded, took out 12 small sterling silver cups from the side, and filled them to the brim

"Thank you, Mr. Donner!" Pierce took the small cup that Donner handed over, the small cup was filled with lilac liquid, and there seemed to be a faint smoke rising from the cup, Pierce didn't think much about it, and raised his head to drink the holy water

"I think I might not be well?, Mr. Donner, who is next to you, and how do you look like you?" was Pierce's last sentence before he passed out, and he seemed to hear Mr. Arnold say, "Have a good dream, children"

___________________________

Pierce finds himself transformed into an eagle, soaring between mountains and rivers, surviving like a normal eagle, observing prey, stalking prey, and striking a fatal blow when prey slackens!

Pierce experienced the life of an eagle, and at the moment of the eagle's death, he found himself in the middle of a medieval street, surrounded by people, and became an adult, dressed in a white robe, with a hood like an eagle's beak on his head, delicate arm guards on his wrist, and a long sword hanging from his waist, and flying knives lined up in an orderly manner next to the long sword

Pierce noticed that the body began to move, and Pierce panicked a little, because he couldn't control his body movements, and could only watch himself step by step towards the crowd, quietly coming behind a man in gorgeous clothes

"Rub!"

A sharp blade popped out from under the palm, and the sharp blade pierced into the back of the man's heart, the palm twisted slightly, and with the twisting of the palm, the blood spread uncontrollably from the wound

The blade was drawn from the corpse, and the body galloped into the side street, slamming his left foot on the wall and jumping against the wall, while his arm rose and grabbed the bulge of the wall, and climbed onto the roof with his hands and feet.

There was a noisy voice downstairs, as if someone had found the deceased, and Pierce's body quickened his pace and leaped on the roof, and finally came to the top of a lonely building, standing straight on the roof, his hands were flat, and then his body jumped off the roof!

"Chirp~!!"

Pierce felt as if he heard a loud eagle call, and then found his gaze suddenly speeding downward, sinking headlong into the haystack below.

Pierce passively experienced the actions of this body, identifying targets with eagle eyes, then understanding targets through limited resources, then tracking targets, understanding the terrain, then killing targets, and finally escaping from pursuit.

When Pierce's body kills another target, Pierce notices that his vision suddenly plummets into darkness, and his thoughts slowly stop.

Pierce opened his eyes, looked around with a confused expression, and then slowly stood up, and blankly took the white robe that Donner handed over that was obviously one size smaller, and two arm guards and a belt, Pierce looked at the familiar white robe and arm guards, and his eyes slowly regained their brilliance

At this moment, Pierce heard Mr. Arnold speak: "Well, congratulations on becoming a true assassin!

Pierce looked at Arno excitedly, in Pierce's eyes, Arno seemed to have become a god full of light at this moment, Pierce clenched his right hand into a fist and put his fist to his heart, and a firm voice came from Pierce's thin body: "Follow your will!"

_______________________

Arno looked at the children below, his thin and weak body stood straight, his lean and yellow face was full of determination, and Arno felt that no one could satisfy himself more than this group of children: "Of course, your task is to recover your malnourished body, there is enough food in the castle to satisfy you, please leave the rest to us adult assassins!"

Arno walked down the steps, "Well, I think you're already very hungry, why don't we go and have a good meal now?"
