-Spurt!

Appearing behind one of the guards patrolling the area, Kevin swiftly and silently slit his throat.

Dragging the guard's corpse behind a bush, Kevin came back out wearing a black uniform and a hat. On his right peck, a white nametag rested on the uniform.

After scouting all of the guards from the drone, Kevin had a general idea of the guard's movement pattern.

Turning right, Kevin passed by another guard that was patrolling not so far away from where he was.

Nodding his head to greet Kevin, the guard moved past Kevin.

-Spurt!

Swiftly appearing behind the guard and silently slitting his throat, Kevin dragged his body away.

Coming back out, Kevin replaced his previous name tag with the one of the guard he had just killed.

The reason for his action was because certain guards were only allowed to patrol certain areas. If they found out that the guard that was supposed to be patrolling the outside perimeter was outside their designated area, they would no doubt become suspicious.

Though he knew his plan wasn't going to last long, he would at least like to reach a certain point before bulldozing his way towards his target.

Realistically, remaining hidden was not an option...but it's not like Kevin cared. He was that confident in his skill.

Entering the villa, Kevin lowered the hat he was wearing. Masking his face.

Right now Kevin had to operate fast.

His target already knew that he was on his tail.

Previously, he had sent several scouting devices inside of the villa, and thus he knew exactly where Victor was hiding.

However, despite the fact that their cloaking function was fairly good, they had all already been seen through by someone.

Kevin estimated that whoever found the devices, was at least rank, if not even rank. Only someone of that calibre could detect his scouting devices so quickly.

Though he knew there was going to be someone of that level as the system had already warned him beforehand, he had to confirm for himself.

...and now he knew.

Increasing his pace, Kevin walked in the direction of where he last detected Victor. He knew he couldn't waste any time.

If he let the target escape, the next time he tried to assassinate him, chances were that he would be more prepared. Even worse, he would hide until Kevin had no choice but to return to the academy, preventing him from completing the mission.

He had to kill him now at all costs. If not, there was not going to be a second chance.

Turning left of the hall, Kevin passed by two guards who seemed to be in a rush.

"Hey!"

Hearing someone shouting in his direction, halting his steps, Kevin kept looking at the front.

"Morrison, what are you doing here?"

Jogging to where Kevin was, one of the guards looked at Kevin suspiciously.

"You shouldn't be here. We just got an emergency message regarding someone infiltrating the premis--kh"

Just as the guard was about to finish speaking, Kevin subtly looked at his nametag 'Leo' and swiftly stabbed his heart.

Supporting Leo's lifeless body with one arm so that he remained standing, Kevin pretended to converse with him. Halfway through his conversation, Kevin slightly loosened the grip of Leo's body, and it slowly sank in his direction.

"I know, someone ordered me to...hey? Leo are you okay?"

"What's going on?"

Noticing something strange, the other guard that was accompanying Leo, whom Kevin had just killed, jogged in Kevin's direction.

Using his shoulder to mask the blood that was slowly seeping from Leo's body, Kevin flusteredly spoke.

"I-I don't know. I was just talking to him when he suddenly just passed out in front of me"

"Hey, Leo!"

Arriving next to Leo, the guard gave him a gentle tap

"...Hm?"

Noticing a small red stain on the ground, the guard instantly felt that something wasn't right, but before he could react, a silver streak of light appeared before his heart.
