Just some notes before reading the chapter:

Cursive text portray the thoughts of the (MC) character, most comparable to talking to yourself in your head

Bold text are just like author notes, it is most comparable with a voice-over (to introduce a chapter or time skip) or just notes from the author (after the end of the chapter)

On a frozen road between a cold village and the Capital, 4 men were waiting. They expected a delivery: Not food or supplies, but people, or specifically said, targeted people. Whilst they were as a group, one of them seemed more distanced from the rest. He didn't wear the same black jacket or seemed to be part of this threesome. Whilst the cold wasn't bothering the trio, it was bothering the lone reaper...

I'm freezing my balls off here. Why did Esdeath send me on this mission with the Three Beasts? Did she really has so little trust in them or in me to take out the former Prime Minister Chouri alone? Or was there more that she didn't tell me?

I sighed, the white dry snow where we were waiting in would soon become red and wet. The goal of this mission was clear: Take out the former minister and anyone who accompanies him, in which probably the guards were meant. Afterward, drop posters claiming this attack is from Night Raid to turn public opinion to them and discourage people from joining the Revolution.

After some time, a carrier appeared in the distance. I looked behind me and saw my 'team' standing behind me. I still couldn't get used to it: I work alone.

"Wait until I give the sign to attack, let me handle the begin okay?" They didn't reply, but I saw in their faces that they did understood and respected their assignment as subordinates under my supervision.

The carrier approached us but stopped. The guards tried gesturing me to move away, but I didn't listen. After some time the carrier opened and a young blonde woman walked out. She was carrying a spear-like weapon in her left hand, which I predicted she was very capable to take out threats who faced her, including me.
