The Author's POV

Inside a large dark room, the figure of an extremely handsome individual could be seen sitting crossed leg in the middle of the bed.

Tsssssss...

Sitting shirtless on the bed, steam slowly rose from the figure's body.

As steam poured out from his body, the figure suddenly tensed and relaxed his muscles repeatedly. He continued doing so for every five seconds time intervals.

As he tensed his muscles, the outline of his veins that traced all over his body became more apparent making him look extremely scary.

"Fuuuuuu....."

After a couple of minutes of continuous tensing and relaxing, the figure suddenly released a long breath and finally opened his eyes, revealing two scarlet red eyes.

Standing up and taking a towel from a nearby table, Kevin dried his wet body.

Turning around, he looked at his reflection in the mirror.

His body, which was chiseled to perfection had multiple scar wounds on both his abdomen and chest areas. His back was even worse, as it was riddled with scars that ranged from different sizes and shapes. Most notably, there was one that stretched halfway through his back.

Tracing one of the scars that appeared on his chest, Kevin was reminded of the time where he was forced to fight against multiple ranked villains when he had just entered rank.

It was a mission that the system had given him in exchange for a relatively powerful skill.

In the end, if not for the fact that he had multiple trump cards on him, he would've long have died that day.

All the scars on his body were reminders of the hardship he had gone through to get to where he was.

Throwing the towel on the bed, Kevin opened his phone and checked his most recent notification.

[Student rank 1, Kevin Voss - Mission target, Victor Hugh, Hollberg minister of finances. Charged with corruption and embezzlement. Target location at xxxxxx road. Target behavioral pattern....]

"...Corrupt officer huh"

Looking through the data file sent to him, Kevin quickly skimmed through the contents.

Stopping on a certain section, Kevin frowned

"Embezzlement, Money laundering, Soliciting and acting as an intermediary for drug trades, false imprisonment of government officials, sexual harassment..."

The more he looked through the series of crimes his target was accused of, the deeper Kevin's frown became.

"...such trash"

Turning his phone off, Kevin placed it in his pocket.

-Click!

Dressing up in a simple white T-shirt and black pants, Kevin took his black Kashmiri jacket and headed out of the room.

-Ding!

[Host has received a new mission, would you like to view it?]

Not surprised by the sudden notification, Kevin nodded

"Yes, open quest interface"
