The Martial Unity

She had regained her composure rapidly, earlier than her Martial Apprentice aids. Her fortitude earned Rui's respect, she was quite impressive for regaining her calm.

"My apologies," She told him.

While she did not possess the sensitivity to understand exactly what the pressure Rui exerted on her meant about his power, she could make indirect inferences about how strong he was by looking at the state that her subordinates were in.

Her subordinates were not weak or ordinary Martial Apprentices by any means. The fact that they had such exaggerated reactions to his aura meant that he was likely more than just heads and shoulders above them. That put her at ease that he was indeed qualified to complete the mission.

"No worries," Rui replied. "Is that all you wished to talk to me about?"

"I wanted to make a request," She told him. "I want you to kill him publicly."

Rui raised an eyebrow under his mask. It was an odd request since most assassination commissions were requested to be done covertly normally, rather than publicly. But Rui now understood the reason why this mission wasn't in the shadow class section. All shadow class missions needed to be covert in nature, and any mission that didn't fulfill this condition, no matter what, was immediately excluded.

Thus, she had likely specified that she did not want a covert mission where the death would be silent and swift. As for why she wanted a public death, Rui could think of several reasons, but it didn't matter.

"...That can be done." Rui straightforwardly said. "How public do you want his death to be?"

"As public as possible." She told him.
