"Are you disappointed?" Genesis asks as her eyes move away form the tall figure in front of her.

"Why would I be, Genesis?" Leo lifts his brows.

"You might be expecting the girl who goes by the name Dragon Deity to be someone better than who I am," Genesis rolls her eyes.

"You're amazing just the way you are."

"You're just saying it... you heard that?" Genesis questions as she hears a sound of chaos coming from the outside. Her instinct of a worrier hints that there must be something going on outside. Leo looks into her eyes as he slowly nods. Both of them quickly grabs the mask they abandons a few moments before. Leo grips his sword tightly as both of them run out of the room.

"Looks like this Asura God mask has brought lots of troubles." Leo can not help to shake his head lightly. The moment he looks back to Genesis who is following him, he saw her beautiful dress ripped. Genesis is now wearing the same top part, but below her waist is just a simple black short she used to wear in the underground fight. Her golden sword hangs down from her delicate waist.

"You've always seize to amaze me, Genesis."

"Couldn't expect less from you too, Asura God king of the underground fight and leader of the assassin sect."

"If I'm king, you are my queen, Dragon Deity queen of the underground fight."

Genesis smiles as her body turns into a black shadow. She quickly reappears at the back of the man dressed in black. Her wrist twists to angle the dagger in her hand. The blade cuts through the neck. The poor man, he did not even realize that she was about to attack him. His last breath soon fades. The two shadows swipe through the room as more and more blood seems to spill to the floor. Fresh blood drips from Genesis's daggers. The two shadows eye each other. The room that was once filled with silence soon turns to a shocking gaze.All of the assassins in black are lying on the floor soaked in blood. Genesis's vivid vermillion shadow swept by the curtains as she headed to the room she left before. Blood dripped from the daggers she held. Genesis delicate hand reached out to her back and slid the daggers to where they belong. She grabbed her dress and quickly put it on. Her stunning assassinate skill was a sharp as her daggers. It was as quick as the midnight wind and as untouchable as a shadow.

"This is why I'm so obsessed with your unusual beauty," a deep voice full with coldness echoed from her back.

"Since when did you came back?" Genesis asks as she turned her face to Leo.

"Not for long after you finished with those useless and unskilled assassins."

"You could said that with ease. Well... leader of the assassin sect— Asura god"

"You should have either."

"So, wouldn't they be searching for you your-majesty?"

"They probably won't"

"Are you going to investigate?" Genesis asks.

"No need to. This have no correlation to the assassin sect neither the royal family." Leo expression becomes deep.

"How could you simply conclude the situation."

"How long do you think I need? As leader of the assassin sect, I have no time to play around with this such a childish game."

"You should definitely have some other things to do. Although you hardly appear in public. I have almost forgot that the second prince of the kingdom is prince Leo." Genesis teases.

"Well, politics is not my thing. That was meant for the crown prince, not me. I serve the kingdom, but not like the other royalties. Genesis, The assassin sect belongs to the royal family of this kingdom. One must takes the spot of the leader. The assassin sect is what secretly keeps the balance in the kingdom and keeps the peace in the realm as well"

"I sincerely have never thought of that before." Genesis gasps.

"Our father made the choice for us when we were still young. The first son was meant to be the next king, but for the following sons, the king will decide who will be the next leader of the assassin sect."

"So that is why I could hardly see prince Leo and prince Kai appearing in public." Genesis said in a soft tone.

"Now you see."

"Indeed I do. I respect your decision. Prince Leo... no, Leo, if you need me, I'll always be here to lend a hand."

"I'm grateful for that, but I can never drag you into the middle of this bloody game."

"What if I had already been involved in it."

"What do you mean by that?" Leo eyes go wide.

"You seriously didn't doubt in those assassins? Leo, they might not see my face, but they will get to it. Sooner or later they will know."

"I won't let that happen."

"You can't stop it. It's not something that you can control. Don't be childish."

"Genesis, look at me. I'm not being childish, but if I can't even protect a girl, how could I protect this kingdom. This is how the assassin sect work. We make what's impossible becomes possible.

"It's not something you don't have a power to control."

"Genesis, I thought you understand how things work at the assassin sect."

"I do..."

"No, you don't. The assassin sect won't be able to do hold on to the politic within the realm if we don't get everything under our control."

"You try to control everything even though you know you don't have the power to?"

"That is how it must goes. I am not the one making the choice here."

"The who decides if it is not you?"

"The kingdom decides for itself." Leo said as eyes Genesis.
