The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter: 196. Those Who Aim for the Black Scythe (1)

The plan to assassinate the Black Scythe proceeded swiftly.

“Hello, I am Jeffrey.”

Jeffrey introduced himself in front of the five apostles.

“I am a Level 48 assassin. Whether it’s tailing or assassination, I can do anything. Just leave it to me.”

“Did you hear from the Swingman about what you need to do?” Spaniard asked.

Jeffrey nodded.

“I heard that I need to tail the leader of the CPF in Korea and find out where he lives.”

“Can you do it?”

“It’s not difficult. I’ve already identified the police station where the leader frequently appears, so I just need to wait there. Of course, the sooner the payment, the sooner I can start tailing.”

“Ha ha, good. So how much is the payment?”

“10,000 points upfront, and 10,000 points upon completion, totaling 20,000 points.”

“Hmm…”

He asked for points, not dollars or gold, as the payment currency. It wasn’t surprising since they were already aware that points could be traded. The problem was the amount was more than expected.

“20,000 points. Isn’t that too much?”

“If we pool together, it shouldn’t be impossible.”

“We have no choice. Let’s each give him 2,000 points for the advance payment.”

Everyone nodded in agreement, except for one person who had a suspicious look.

It was John Delgado.

“You said your name was Jeffrey?”

“Yes.”

“You’re Caucasian? Which country are you from?”

“I’m from the United States.” freewebnσvel.cøm

“How did you come to know Swingman, who is Indian?”

“I don’t discriminate against clients based on nationality. I only follow the money.”

Jeffrey answered smoothly, even though the question was unexpected because Ryu Min had already prepared the answers for him.

“Seems like you’ve done a few contract jobs before?”

“Yes. There are people looking for assassins everywhere, whether they are ordinary people or players.”

“You’re so famous, yet I’ve never heard of you, you said you’re an American?”

“You can’t openly advertise that you’re doing contract work, can you?”

The conversation ended there as there was nothing more to extract from Jeffrey. John’s suspicion turned towards Ryu Min.

“Swingman, why did you hire this assassin before?”

“I needed someone for tailing for personal reasons. That’s how I got to know Jeffrey. Is that enough for you?”

When Ryu Min responded sharply, John couldn’t nitpick any further. There was nothing else to point out.

As the atmosphere grew heavy, the Spaniard clapped his hands to lighten the mood.

“Alright, it sounds like he’s experienced enough for us to trust him. Jeffrey? We’re counting on you for a quick job.”

“Yes. Don’t worry.”

Jeffrey smiled and disappeared after receiving the points from the apostles without leaving a trace. Indeed, as an assassin, he used invisibility and vanished without being detected.

“Now, let’s wait for the assassin to bring good results.”

“Let’s do that.”

Everyone smiled with satisfaction, except for John Delgado, who couldn’t hide his uneasy expression.

Jeffrey contacted them exactly one week before the next round.

“He’s here!”

“What does he say? Did he find it?”

“Yes! After tailing, he found the Black Scythe’s residence.”

“That’s great news!”

The apostles smiled brightly at Swingman’s report. However, John Delgado, who had issues with Swingman, looked dissatisfied.

“Is that reliable information? Did he confirm that the Black Scythe is inside?”

“Of course. Here’s the video Jeffrey sent.”

The video showed someone wearing a white mask leaving the entrance of a villa.

“This is him. The mask indicates that it’s definitely the Black Scythe who attacked us before.”

“……”

Swingman was the only one who had seen the real Black Scythe. He couldn’t recklessly claim it wasn’t him, nor could he affirm it definitively.

“Are you sure this is the Black Scythe?”

“Yes, I’m sure! I stake my life on it.”

When Swingman vouched to that extent, the other apostles had no choice but to acknowledge it.

“Haha, we finally found the Black Scythe’s lair.”

“Now all that’s left is to assassinate him as planned.”

“Leave it to me. I’ll open the Black Scythe’s lid with my divine sniping skills.”

Dark Soul spoke confidently, but Yang Chiwen wouldn’t stay quiet.

“Where do you think you’re interfering? We agreed to follow my plan! Wait until the 12th round!”

“We know where he lives. What’s the point in waiting? Just sniping him now will be enough.”

“You idiot. What if the sniping fails? The Black Scythe will move his base, and the plan will be ruined. Don’t you get it?”

“That’s right. Dark Soul, it’s better to proceed with Yang Chiwen’s plan. We only have to wait a week, right?”

With the Spaniard joining in, Dark Soul had no choice but to step back, though reluctantly.

“Then, as planned, I will prepare the Black Society members to slit the Black Scythe’s throat.”

“Yes. Yang Chiwen, make sure your men sneak into Korea by December 1st so they can strike at midnight.”

“Leave it to me.”

The apostles smirked, but they didn’t know that failure was already a foregone conclusion. The residence was a trap set up by Ryu Min.
