Third person's POV

The day has arrived - Kiyan is restless that he woke up early in the morning, the temperature is cold and a light mist covered the Clan. He walked and stood over the eastern wall, he took a deep breath I'm getting a bit nervous.

He suddenly heard faint footsteps, he turned but saw no one. He grabbed the hilt of one of his greatswords.

He suddenly felt a blade before his neck If I wanted to kill you, you'd be dead already. Azalea suddenly appeared behind him with her claws just in front of his neck M-Miss Azalea!

She lowered her claws and Kiyan took a couple of steps away from her Don't be uptight, I just want to surprise and greet you good morning.

Kiyan said dryly That is the most terrifying way to greet someone. He then added Sir Stein sure is right, you vanish so that you eliminate your targets without seeing you.

She replied Ever since we lost the war and there's peace between our Clan, I vowed myself not to kill anymore unless I absolutely have to. She noticed the faint light of the sun starting to rise on the distant mountains and the cooling view of the forest This sure is a nice place to relax and have time for yourself. She looks at Kiyan I bid you good luck on your duel today.

She started to walk away then stopped for a moment I want to see how strong you really are. I'm curious because Scarlett and I are one of the top assassins yet when you fought against us out of anger for the death of your squad, we were completely helpless against you.

She then walked away, Kiyan asked himself I fought...against them? He recalls the faint dream he had then waking up wounded and extremely exhausted.
