The Author's POV

As night shrouded Hollberg, a silhouette sped into the busy streets of the city.

Swiftly moving between cars, the figure of an individual could be seen riding on top of a slick motorbike that emitted no sound. If not for the two lights coming from the front of the bike, someone could've easily overlooked the bike that was swiftly moving in between the streets.

After ten more minutes of riding, silently stopping in front of a large villa, Kevin took off his helmet revealing his two scarlet red eyes that shone under the moonlight.

-shua!

"System open inventory"

Extending his hand to the right and retrieving it back, a drone appeared in his hand.

Turning on the drone, Kevin turned on the cloaking function as well as the noise dampening function installed on the drone.

-Bzzzz!

Throwing the drone in the air, it silently disappeared and melted into the darkness of the night, completely blending with everything around it.

Staring at where the drone used to be, Kevin blankly looked at the villa before him

This wasn't the first time Kevin assassinated someone. Multiple times the system had given him similar missions where he would have to kill highly ranked individuals.

Therefore, as soon as he got assigned his mission, he already had all the necessary things needed to carry out the mission.

Turning on his phone, Kevin spectated the drone's view of the mansion.

Frowning slightly, Keving turned on the holographic function of his phone. Soon a three-dimensional perspective of the villa became visible.

Pinching his fingers, he carefully scrutinized the layout of the area.

The villa was relatively large, and it consisted of one main building surrounded by large cement walls. Around the villa, there was a large garden, filled with all sorts of flowers and plants, and next to it was a large maze.

In the middle of the maze, there was a nice wooden pavilion surrounded by red and pink roses.

Controlling the drone, Kevin moved it around the perimeter of the gate where several men dressed in black could be seen patrolling the area.

Counting all of the people he could spot patrolling the mansion, Kevin turned on the thermal imaging camera to make sure he didn't miss anyone due to the darkness of the night.

"Fifteen...sixteen...seventeen"

As he counted, he couldn't help but frown.

...This many people just outside?

Something told Kevin that something wasn't right

-Click!

Thinking for a bit, Kevin decided to deploy his mini scouting devices. Pressing on a button on his screen, several small devices dropped from the drone, landing softly on the garden's grass.

Swiping left, Kevin switched the view from the drone's point of view to the mini scouting devices view.

As he navigated the mini scouting devices with his phone, Kevin kept the drone in the air to monitor the surroundings. Just in case something happened.
