Fantasy Assassin In A Modern World Chapter 41
Advertisement
Loki was there watching the family of three spending their last day together before Niel goes to prison. As Loki watched the three having fun he felt something weird. He couldn't understand what it was, but he did feel a little bit envious of Niel and his family.
'Maybe, Alisa and Liam would want to have a family outing as well...'
When it was time for Niel to go to the police he walked there from his home. Madoka wanted to accompany him, but Niel refused. He wanted Madoka to stay with Lily and think of this like his going in one of his investigations, it was just another ordinary day.
"Bye-bye papa, see you later." Lily's happy smile as she waved her hand almost made Niel cry but he stopped himself. Niel mustered everything he had to put on a smile, and so did Madoka. He then waved hands at his wife and daughter.
...
Niel who was walking towards the Police Station suddenly turned a corner and stopped in an empty alleyway. He then started looking around and once he was sure there was no one there, Niel spoke.
"Hey, I'm sure that you're here somewhere, right Fade?" There was no response, but Niel continued talking.
"I'm about to go and pay up... I know it's shameful of me to ask this, but can you check up on my family every now and then. I don't know how long I will be imprisoned so please." Niel waited for a bit and then he heard someone speaking from behind him.
"I'm an assassin, not a babysitter. Your wife and child will learn how to live without you." Niel felt a bit disappointed when he heard Loki's response. Still, he couldn't really make Loki do as he asked, he didn't even understand why he asked in the first place. It was at that moment as he was about to walk away, Loki spoke.
"But if I have the time, I don't mind taking a look." When Niel heard that he turned around in surprise, but Loki was no longer there.

"Thank you." Niel smiled as he continued onward to face his sins. Loki continued to watch as Niel surrendered himself to the police.
'We all will face our sins sooner or later...'
...
While Loki was watching over Niel fulfill his end of the deal, Harold was having problems back in his place. It happened a few days after the incident with the Harada Family ended. Someone was actually trying to find his location. This was the first time that someone had actually gotten far enough to be so close to hacking into his system.
Harold was typing on his multiple keyboards like a madman. Yet despite the danger of his identity and location being found out, Harold could not help himself as he smiled in excitement. The battle he was having as typed on his keyboard was the most stimulating thing that has ever happened to him. It was even more stimulating than the time he met the powerful assassin Fade.
At this very moment in Harold's world, there was nothing but him, his keyboards, and his monitors. The sound of him typing was the only sound he could hear. As time passed he was no longer on the defensive and was now the one trying to locate them, but once that happened all traces of those tracking him disappeared.
Still, Harold had some clue as to who was trying to find him. "The Eye of Truth..."
"The Eye of Truth, is that a name of a group?"
"Wha-!" Harold jumped from his chair and saw Loki was standing right behind him. "Huh, when did you come in?"
"I was here for quite some time, I tried talking to me but you were so engrossed in what you were doing you completely ignored me. So what's happening, what are you doing?"
Harold easily accepted that Loki arrived without him noticing, not mentioning he was in the zone a while ago, but Loki's ability to sneak in undetected was second to none. Harold sighed before he explained to Loki what happened.

"Hmm, so this Eye of truth is looking for you? I guess that would be because of me... Even though it was indirectly I apologize for what's happening." Loki bowed his head.
"Wait, wait, wait, there's no need for that. It was my decision to do those things as well. It wasn't like you were forcing me to do it. Heck, you even paid me, so it's a job... Also, to tell you the truth, I did have a ton of fun in doing that."
"I see... If you're okay with it, then I guess it's fine. Still, just call me if anything happens."
"I'll do that."
"Alright then, I'm rather curious what is this Eye of truth?"
"The Eye of Truth is a very old organization that is said to have existed since the birth of the Empire, this organization deals with information. As long as you pay the appropriate amount of money, they would give you whatever information you need. If they don't have the information you want at hand they send out their agents to find the information you need. Right now I'm guessing someone paid them for any information about the person who posted the videos about the assassin Fade. Now that they failed the next attempt would be a much harsher one for me to deal with."
"Do you need my help in dealing with this?"
"No need. I'm guessing now that they know a bit more about my skills, the price of my information will go up. So since they haven't continued trying to hack into my system, think they either don't have someone capable enough to play with me, or the person who is asking for my info can't pay the new price. Either way, it's not a problem for me."
"I see..."
"So why did you come here in the first place?"
"I just wanted to thank you for your help. Also to give you this payment." Ren handed Harold a stack of money.
"Thanks," Harold replied as he picked up the money and placed it in the safe hidden under his monitors. Loki nodded his head and was about to leave, but before he did he asked Harold a question.
"Hey, do you think the Eye of truth would be able to get information about me?" When Harold heard Loki's question there was a moment of silence. The atmosphere became a bit tense before Harold gave his answer.
"Truth be told I don't know. Rumor has it, that there is no information in this country or the Empire that can evade the sight of the Eye of Truth. It just depends on how much money you are willing to spend to get that information. Right now they don't have anything on both of us, and I think that after this event, the prices on any info about us will be on the high-end. So people on the same level as the Harada Family's won't be able to afford to pay. Also, I'm not sure about you, but I'm confident in my skills that I'm sure that even if they try they won't be able to trace anything back to me. How about you, aren't you confident in your skills?"
Loki smiled at what Harold said. That was right, even back in his old world, there were many organizations like this Eye of Truth. Yet no matter what they did they weren't able to get any solid information about him. He was confident he could do the same in this world, that didn't have those irritating spells that could do unbelievable things.
"Thank you again, Harold?" After saying that Loki jumped out of the window.
