Chapter 129 - 129: Command Kill Order (1/2)
Catseye killing Reaper was a piece of explosive news in the underground world most especially to Assassin's Guild and its members.
After hearing the news, Assassin's Guild headquarter was in turmoil. It brought a state of great disturbance, confusion, and uncertainty to every member.
The guild called for an emergency meeting today to make a necessary action against Catseye. All members of Assassin's Guild were gathered inside the headquarters
Black Shadow brought the CCTV recordings. The record of Catseye entering Reaper's apartment was being shown to other assassins present there.
He confirmed and testified that the person in the venue was none other than but Catseye herself.
After watching the video, the members started having a conversation, exchanging their views and opinions regarding the incident.
”Why Catseye did this?”
”It was his fault. Maybe, Reaper offended Catseye that is why she killed him.”
”This act was an insult to our guild. We should avenge our fallen brother!”
”Catseye went overboard this time. Killing a member of Assassin's Guild! Catseye was truly fearless!”
”Catseye was declaring war with the Assassin's Guild. I think she must be bored living and she wanted to die already. Going against Assassin's Guild is a big mistake.”
”I think she was looking down on us. Catseye should be punished for that!”
”It is Catseye we are talking about here. It was difficult to hunt her. You can't kill her alone.”
”I agree. Reaper is one of the strongest members of Assassin's Guild but she was able to kill him easily.”
”By the way, do you know the two persons who entered the building?”
”They might be the accomplices of Catseye.”
”Too bad, they don't have a clear shot. We can't identify those two since they were wearing caps and the CCTV failed to record their faces.”
”But the person who wore assassin clothes is definitely Catseye.”
”Yeah... Black Shadow already confirmed it a while ago, have you not heard it, you idiot?!”
They were in the middle of their conversation when suddenly the head of Assassin's Guild spoke up.
”Ladies and gentlemen... may I have your attention please.”
After hearing that, the members stayed quiet and focused their attention on the Assassin's Guild leader.
”I know every one of you are curious about what action Assassin's Guild will do after this incident.”
”I want to ask you... what is the most important rule of this guild?”
”Don't fight with your fellow members, help each other and avenge your fallen brothers!” They answered in unison.
”You all know that it is our obligation to avenge our brother's death!”
”So I hereby declare the Command Kill order or shall we say the Kill-on-Sight Order for Catseye!” the leader said with his stern authoritative voice.
This statement had gathered different reactions from the members. Some were eager to do it.
But there were others who were frightened since they were talking about Catseye, the devilish assassin.
”And to give you more motivation... the Assassin's Guild will give 500 billion bounties for Catseye's head!” the leader added.
And that is what they were waiting for. Everyone was screaming because of excitement. That was the biggest price that Assassin's Guild had offered.
Indeed it was true that the news had wings.
In just a short period, everything that transpired in Assassin's Guild Headquarter was spread in the underground world most especially the information about the Kill Command Order against Catseye.
Now, everyone was aware that there was an ongoing war between the Assassin's Guild and Catseye.
Of course, Marie was also able to get that piece of important information from the underground in which she relayed it to the joint task force right away.
Every member of the joint task force was sitting in the conference hall except for Erick. Captain Jason called for an emergency meeting.
Even though the team had low morale right now because of their failed mission and Erick's was severely injured, the team was still doing their best and they needed to keep going.
Marie was attending the meeting in person.
”What intel you've got this time Agent Marie?” Captain Jason asked her directly as soon as the meeting started.
”Reaper, the assassin who shot Chief Lee, he was killed last night by Catseye,” Marie replied immediately, making people in the room astounded as they heard that news.
There was a moment of silence. Everyone was rendered speechless. Disbelief was evident in their eyes.
As much as they wanted to capture and punish the man who shot Erick, but they were still shocked by this piece of news.
No one expected that to happen right after Erick was shot. They got their revenge just like that.
Catseye was really giving them a headache from thinking so hard about her motive in her every action.
”Assassin's Guild released a Command Kill Order against Catseye. They offered 500 billion for those who can kill Catseye.”
”Reaper was a member of that guild. This is one way of avenging his death.”
”Assassins will start hunting Catseye now because of that price.”
”Damn... Catseye is truly fearless, going against that guild! Even authorities could not bring down that guild how much more Catseye, alone.” June exclaimed.
”Is this a good thing or bad? Because if that is the case, I don't think we will be able to catch Catseye alive.” Carl commented.
”We must catch her alive. Killing her is not the right punishment for her crime. All our efforts will be in vain if Catseye will just die in their hands.”
