the third tenant of the creed (SAO x assasin M reader)

chapter 1

He nods. "What next?" " you scout the area, and prepare as much as you can." he nods leaving immediately. He walks around the town of beginnings, people are still in a panic, it's only been a few days since the launch. He gets the lay of the land. Over the next few months, he trains, he gets better, as he sleeps he dives into the memories of his ancestors, while he is awake he scouts and trains.

He becomes a very deadly assassin. He watches the others organize a party to take down the first floor boss. He stands on a roof nearby, no one notices him. Then as everyone gets settled he walks up.

His footsteps echo. "Hello." he greets. "I'm going to help you defeat the level one boss." he says. The man nods. '' and who might you be?" "nobody important right now. Any legitimate strategy yet? Organization and basic goals, but anything more advanced?" " no, sir. May i ask a name?" they say recognizing his skill on sight, giving respect out of instinct.

" it'll do, so, i'll be a solo. I'll hang towards the back. Any objections?" a group of nine walk up behind him. " the nine will accompany you." they were the same robes as him. "They will keep the minions off of you." he says. " they will follow your orders, don't make me regret giving you this power and responsibility." " you won't. Do you have a name?" genuinely starting to think he doesn't have one. " call me eagle for now." he says, walking away.

Then that night he walks up behind kirito. " beta tester, ay?" " you one to?" he whispers stepping away from asuna. " nope, but i see someone who knows what they/'re doing. Good luck. I won't be entering the boss room. There are some player killers that've been eyeing everybody ever since blue called the meeting." " his name i-" " don't care, ok? Stay safe, keep everybody else safe as well. I've instructed my men that you can override the leader of the mission, and have a higher authority. I trust you." ": why?" " i've studied you and your philosophy of doing things. If you were to join us, you'd be almost perfect for us, but your philosophy, the thing i like the most out of you, also is what i hate the most. I can count you'll value human life over the mission, but you'll get the mission done."

He then walks off. He walks with them. Then he looks at them as they go in. " everyone.... In." he orders. " now!" they all look confused but do as they told. " even after you defeat the boss wait until i open the door to leave!" he orders as a few people in black and white robes come from the shadows. " this is an order!" he shouts before slamming the door shut.

A small army from the liberation front is there, with a general and a woman in white. They all remove their cloaks, all but the woman. Five axe wielders four archers, ten knights, five spear wielders, a general, and three mace wielders make up the small army.

He dodges the spears as they slash down. They slide under their legs, and then turns, stabbing them all in quick succession with his hidden blade, paralyzing them with poison. He then throws throwing knives into the chests of all the archers but one. Then he grabs the arrow they fire. He's fairly detached from the system allowing him to defy skills.

He then throws a throwing knife at them in return. He dodges a double axe slash. They try to slash his waist on both sides as they run past. He back flips dodging just in time. They then fall to their knees, paralyzed due to waist slashes from the blades.

He grabs the wrists of two mace wielders coming from either side. He palms their hands then stabs their guts. He throws two more throwing knives like cards into the guts of two axe wielders. He then grabs the handle of the last as they go to chop down on him.
