The Martial Unity

Chapter 1705

"In regards to that..." M began. "That brings us to the fourth constraint; the anti-synergy between all of you."

The Thunder Viper narrowed his eyes as he understood what she meant.

He turned to the Maneater and the Suffocator with wary eyes. "I definitely cannot operate near them, that much I can tell you."

He glanced around at each of them with sharp eyes. Each of them had elements that conflicted with his manner of going about things.

A smile flashed atop his face. "A gauntlet, if I remember correctly."

"That's right," M nodded. "We will have a series of assassins in place, ready to take the place of the one that failed. Of course, if there are those of you who think they can work with each other without getting in each other's way, then that is acceptable, too. Aside from the twins, are there any pairs who would be able to work without impeding each other significantly?"

Nobody raised their hands. Although this was the first time that some of them had met each other face-to-face, they knew that their styles would definitely compete with and impede each other.

"Each of you will be paid your standard premium commission for simply partaking in the assassination," She informed them. "The one to land the final blow will receive two to the power of whatever their numeric turn is. Thus, if the person going first succeeds in the assassination, they will get twice as much, but if the person going second succeeds, then they get four times as much. The person going thrice would get eight times as much for killing him, and so on and so forth."
