Set in the Edo Period (18th Century). An assassin from the highest rank is ordered to silently kill a famous beauty.

The night was as empty like a dark, shallow shell. Not even the moon, stars, and clouds showed up to give the night sky a bit of life, only darkness to swallow the land.

In a large manor, few windows allowed light to go through its translucent paper, allowing some shadows to move and waver.

A person wearing purely black clothes with a bit of armor dashed and jumped roof after roof until they reached their destination.

Their feet landed both on the trimmed grass of a lone courtyard, their body steady like calm waters. As they walked towards the door, they emitted out a cold aura that matched their icy steps.

Once they got close to the door, they quietly opened it and glanced at a beautiful woman before them.

Her hair was like the current dark night as it flowed like waterfalls down to her chest. Her lips a shade of vibrant red and her cheeks pinkish.

The woman's pearl-like skin glowed under the candles that surrounded her, giving her a nice look. She wore a very detailed kimono, its colors bursting out vibrantly. But unfortunately, the expression on her face was like ice that will never melt.

"So, you have arrived." She spoke chillingly that matched her face. The black-clothed man that stood in front of her immediately kneeled down on one leg. "Yes, Lady Hanabi, I await for your task." He replied nonchalantly.

The beautiful woman whose name is Hanabi stood up to her feet, looking down upon the black-clothed man. "Most wanted assassin, Hayabusa, I want you to take this era's most beautiful woman's head, and I will grant you one powerful wish." She instructed and added the reward information.

This lady from a powerful family isn't the typical beautiful miss.

Yes, she is indeed talented, but what stands her out the most than roses with normal skills is that she has magical powers.

Some people would hide among the shadows to hide their powers for they fear that their magic would get stolen or get killed by the imperial family. Even if they are very rare to encounter, they will still get killed no matter who they are besides being a part of the imperial family.

Luckily, Hanabi blends with the normal crowd so well that she just looks like a typical talented miss from a strong-willed and healthy manor.

With bright smiles and kind deeds, she managed to fool everyone.

Hayabusa nodded and stood up, bowing down humbly before raising his head to look at Hanabi. "This obedient servant shall obey." In a flash, he vanished as if he became one with the air.

When a week passed by and morning started, the sky was clear and the clouds came for a show. The streets were bustling with merchants and people, making the scenes of the insides of a capital rather lively with blurred noises.

Hayabusa walked among the crowds of people that were like cramped fishes inside a can. He wore ordinary clothes and a straw hat to cover the upper part of his face. He did this in order to hide a part of his identity just in case he gets caught.

Inside his plain clothes were hidden weapons such as daggers covered with a bit of lethal poison and very sharp shurikens. For even if he somehow gets into a fight or get ambushed by his previous enemies, he is prepared and fully armed to defend himself and fight back.
