Sovereign of the Firmaments

'It is very easy to upgrade my assassin rank.'

Looking at the system notifications, Lucas could not help but laugh a little as he shook his head.

His three shadow clones were completely focused on assassinating the rank 3 evil spirit beasts and since there were thousands of rank 3 spirit beasts, they were able to easily assassinate them.

In the morning, he was just a tier 1 lesser assassin and only half a day had passed so far and his strength had reached the last tier in that rank. 

So, of course, he felt it was the easiest profession to upgrade.

'Ding,

     The host will have +50 additional damage when using daggers and other hidden weapons.

'Ding,

     Assassinate 1000 rank 3 or lesser rank beings along with a rank 4 or general rank being to upgrade to a General Assassin.

As usual, the system information about the benefits of his new tier and how many he had to assassinate to enter the next rank.

'What? Assassinating a rank 4 spirit beast or general rank being?'

Lucas frowned because he was not expecting it.

Actually, he was expecting that he had to assassinate at least 1600 rank 3 spirit beasts because, for every tier, the number of assassinations he had to do was doubled.

However, all of a sudden the system added a rank 4 spirit beasts.

'Anyway, it will be boring to assassinate the rank 3 spirit beasts all the time. It is a good exercise to assassinate the rank 4 spirit beasts.'

He only frowned for a moment before thinking it was just a little difficult and it would not be a problem as he always liked difficult missions in his previous life.

'Also, I have a good skill and a spell for assassinations. So, as long as I plan properly, it won't be a problem.'

Soon, Lucas' thought about 'Shadow jump' and 'Invisibility'.

'Speaking of 'Invisibility', I need to find another intermediate spell to become a tier 1 lesser mage.'

Lucas thought about it because as long as he became a lesser mage, he would have two advanced spells.

'But, from the looks of it, the mages guild also escaped when the barrier broke. I need to find an intermediate spell scroll through another means, I guess.'

Lucas shook his head and came back to reality and ordered, "Phantom and Blackie, you can take some rest and leave them to me."

'Screech'

'Roar'

Both the phantom eagle and the blackwind panther followed Lucas' orders and retreated back.

"Darkwind blades, go."

As soon as both the rank 3 spirit beasts retreated, Lucas used the skill he gained from the panther and killed 10 rank 3 evil spirit beasts from a long distance.

'Ding,

    The host's assassin sea is less than 100 units.

'Empty already?'

Lucas knew where all his units of assassin energy were disappearing to and it was 'Shadow clones' skill.

Nevertheless, he was satisfied with the efforts made by his shadow clones.

'Gulp'

Lucas didn't have any plans to rest until the heavens recognized his and his family's efforts in protecting the town from the evil spirit beast invasion.

So, he silently took out three dark ember fruits before eating one for himself and throwing the other two at Phantom and Blackie.

'Ding,

    The host's assassin sea's capacity increased by 10 units and 575 units of assassin energy was added to the sea.

With the increment of 10 units of capacity, Lucas' assassin sea's capacity reached 1150 units.

'Time to use more Darkwind blades.'

Since the skills were very effective from a large range, Lucas chose to use the skills again and again.

'I wonder why it is taking so long for the progress bar to fill this time?'

This was his third time and the progress bar was filled around 75 percent. Moreover, he was curious about the reward this time.

For the second time when he filled the progress bar, he got another smaller lightning essence stone which he merged with his other short sword.

'Let's fill the bar before the rank 5 evil spirit beast joins the battle.'

Lucas could guess that the rank 5 evil spirit beasts could join the battle anytime now as the number of evil spirit beasts was very low.

So, Lucas wanted to get his third reward before that happens.

'Wyvern, get ready to come out.'

At the same time, he sent the warning to the Shadow dragon before repeatedly using the darkwind blades

"Roar"

Just like Lucas expected, the rank 5 evil spirit beast roared at the managers who were dealing the most damage and jumped at them.

'Swoosh'

It was so fast that it appeared in front of the Manager in a second before slamming that manager into the ground.

"Everyone, let's fight together and kill this bastard."

Nevertheless, Manager Carl had some kind of defensive artifact that protected him from the attack and coming out of the ground, he shouted at everyone.

"Yes, manager."

Everyone replied as he took out everything they had.

Some drank rage potions while others tossed strength boosting pills to temporarily increase their strength.

Soon, the fight between the rank 5 werecat king and others had successfully started.

'Slash'

'Slash'

However, before the manager could use any of their powerful skills, the werecat king disappeared from his place and casually make a cut on all four of them.

'Thud'

'Thud'

The four managers of the adventurer's guild were successfully paralyzed by the rank 5 evil spirit beasts and looked at him with a shock on their faces.

'Damn it...is this the end?'

'Where the hell did our guild master disappear at a time like this.'

'What about the guild masters of the other towns? And their reinforcements?'

'Oh heavens, to the end of my life, I never abandoned my duties. Where the hell were you looking without giving me any blessings or enlightenment?'

With faces full of disappearing, all four managers looked at the rank 5 evil spirit beasts that were slowly walking towards them. They knew they were going to die today and cursed their luck.

'Roar'

Just when the werecat king was about to kill the managers, a heaven-defying roar could be heard that shook everyone present in the town.
