Legacy Firing

Charlus heard the men outside talking.

"Did you forget to lock the truck?" Charlus heard a gruff voice.

"I swear I locked it. Do you think someone got in? Let's check it." He heard a smoother voice.

Charlus quickly equipped his black clothing. It would help since the inside of the truck was all black. Charlus jumped to the end of the truck without making a lot of noise and hung to the wall. He stood as still as he could while the door opened.

Charlus wasn't facing the opening so he couldn't see who entered. He had to rely on his hearing.

One of the men walked inside and checked the first crate. It was untouched.

"Nothing wrong with it man. Now let's get going. We need to deliver this to the Marconi's by sunset." It was the gruff voice that spoke. Charlus assumed that the owner of the voice was the leader of the two.

"Sunset? When's that?" Charlus' assumption became stronger.

Charlus heard the door close. He breathed a sigh of relief and got off the wall. He turned towards the door and waited. He felt the truck move.

Charlus waited patiently for the truck to come to a stop. It took half an hour for the truck to stop. Charlus felt the truck move immediately. He figured they met a guard or a checkpoint. 

Charlus felt the truck stop. Charlus got ready. He went back to his hiding spot. This time, he faced the truck door. In case he was going to have to fight, he preferred having his opponents in his line of sight.

Charlus saw the door open. He saw 2 men step inside.

"As you can see, the Chione Family does not under-deliver at all. You will find that all your merch is here." Charlus saw the shorter of the men speak with the gruff voice he heard.

Charlus observed their status. 

[Harold (Chione Lower Family Member) Lvl 32]

[Gesalt (Chione Lower Family Member) Lvl 27]

Charlus smiled. They would be easy to deal with. They weren't that high levelled and he would be able to beat them up in no time. But the real problem was that he had no idea where he was. He could be in a military base with a thousand soldiers surrounding him.

Charlus saw a huge man appear behind the two men. Charlus checked his status too.

[Marconi Family Leader Lvl 43]

Charlus suddenly got a notification.

[Marconi Family]

[Difficulty - C]

[Defeat the Minor Family of Marconi]

[20x Marconi Family Members

2x Marconi Family Lieutenants

Marconi Family Leader]

[Rewards]

[3 Levels]

Charlus saw the difficulty. It was at C. He sighed. If it was too difficult, he would have to figure out a way to escape and then prepare a way to finish the mission. But since it was just a C difficulty, he would be able to finish it the same day.

Charlus contemplated whether or not he should use his scythe. Suddenly, he heard them talk.

"I have those children I nabbed from the school. It was from this really low rated district so the police won't care about them. The parents won't be a hassle. Does the Chione Family want them?" The Marconi Family Leader said with an excited expression.

The two Chione Family members shook their heads.

"We might need them for a couple of suicide bombings at the Boreas Family. Maybe a high schooler? Preferably female. She will be less suspected. Do you have those? And how much?" Harold spoke up.

"$3000 per child. We could get a teenager but that would cost more money. $10000. Which school district? And she doesn't need to be pure eh?" The Marconi Family Leader broke out in laughter and everyone joined in. Charlus heard a lot of laughter and he judged everyone who was his target was in the place he was in.

Charlus shook his head. Sometimes the world had undeserving beings. Charlus took out his scythe. Justice would only be done to those who sinned if they died.

"Hey! What's that? Did you see something move? There's something shiny in there." The Marconi Family Leader shouted. Before anyone could react, Charlus rushed towards them. Charlus brought out his wings.

[Scythe of Death]

Charlus swung his scythe at Harold. He then swung his scythe at Gesalt.

[You have defeated Harold]

[480 Exp Awarded]

[You have defeated Gesalt] 

[405 Exp Awarded]

Charlus jumped above the Marconi Family Leader and spread his wings. He flew over the Marconi Family Leader and looked around. He was in a huge warehouse that had a fairly high ceiling, giving him some space to fly.

Charlus saw around a dozen men who were taking out their guns. To his luck, everyone was gathered around the truck. Charlus closed his wings and landed right on top of the trunk.

Charlus loosened his grip on the scythe. He tightened his hand at the end of the scythe. He then used his most powerful skill.

[Death Field]

Charlus unleashed his scythe. He loosened his grip and he let the scythe fly out until he grabbed a part of the chain. He then whirled the scythe around him. 

[Marconi Family Member Lvl 20 defeated]

The only one left was the Marconi Family Leader. He was barely alive. He was clutching his heart and panting on the ground.

Charlus pointed his scythe at the Marconi Family Leader's head. 

"Who are you? Why?" 

Charlus shook his head.

"Did you know that I actually didn't want to kill you? But you forced my hand. I'm supposed to. It's my job description. You were safe as long as you didn't sin."

Charlus pulled on his scythe which was lying on the ground a few meters away. The chain wrapped around his left arm coiled itself and automatically pulled itself into his hand.

Charlus pointed it towards the Marconi Family Leader.
