Rui immediately took off once he had exited the carriage.

('Alrighty, how do I deal with this?') He wondered.

The very first thought he had was engaging in recon to figure out what part of his daily schedule had the highest exposure to the public eye whenever Rui killed him.

It was then that he realized something.

('What if I just kidnap him and drag him into the public eye?') Rui wondered.

The condition he had been given to fulfill was the assassination of King Fujilin with as much exposure as possible. Wasn't it better to drag him out into the public eye and then kill him rather than wait for him to go into the public eye naturally?

Who knew how long it would take before the man would step out of his castle and actually make his way into a place with enough exposure?

Rui didn't want to waste all that time doing nothing. Ideally, he would have liked to complete the mission as early as possible.

('Will she get mad if I drag the king out to a busy area and kill him there?') He wondered before a mischievous grin cracked on his face. ('Even if she gets mad, what she can do?')

Her request was unofficial and something Rui was willing to humor because it wasn't that big a deal. Meaning, she couldn't complain to the Martial Union about the way Rui went about it. He technically will not have violated the contract and will have fulfilled the mission as quickly as possible, which was a performance parameter that the Martial Union cared about, and one that went into the rating evaluation of a Martial Artist. This was another reason to go all out and kill him quickly, he wanted to upgrade to a higher grade as soon as possible.

('Well, she should have been careful what she wished for.') He sped through the Kingdom of Dermile, arriving at a bustling and surprisingly urban town.
