They are someone who should have been used to being in the shadows. They should have seen a lot from the shadows, and it won\'t be easy to pull them out of the shadows.

Even if I by chance did that, I should eliminate them before they can contact their employer. It would be a hassle if they were able to do so.

They are not strong and I could eliminate them easily but they are still professionals. I don\'t mean that they are awakeners. No, I mean that they are good at what they do.

They kept a distance between each other. Even if they were attacked by an AOE attack, not all three would die. At least one of them would be able to survive the disaster unless the attack\'s radius is ridiculously high. I didn\'t think that would be possible for someone with a skill level less than 50.

It is not easy to cross level 50 and someone who can achieve that wouldn\'t be a nobody and they wouldn\'t have heard about them. In their presence, they wouldn\'t do such things as spying on them and recording their data.

My issue was that. Though I am at Tier-6, not one skill has reached even Level 30.

If I was at level 50 or something, I can proudly show my rank as it usual for Tier-6 to have a skill at Level 50. Since it would be far too difficult to improve beyond level 50, from then everyone would try to bring more skills to that level, rather than trying to improve the skill that was at level 50.

In this way, the improvement in their strength would be far more than improving a single one.

This was because the person would have various ways to defend themselves or fight if the opposite one has resistance to the one he excels in.

This is why any sane person wouldn\'t have a single skill but multiple skills.

Having one skill at even level 100 wouldn\'t mean shit if someone surprised you with an attack that you have no defence against.

Let\'s say that you have a Light Arrow Skill at level 100 and that means, unless one has a high resistance towards the Light Element, they are sure to die or at least would be critically injured. Without proper treatment, they are sure to die.

This would be especially true if the victim had Darkness-based affinity or class. Light is considered as a threat to the Darkness. Of course, the opposite is also true. Similar to how Light is a threat to Darkness, Darkness is also a threat to the Light.

So if the one that was supposed to be a victim attacks you using Dark skills, then you would be dead too.

That is why resistance is very important. They can offset any attack, based on your resistance level and the attack level.

It doesn\'t mean that a level 100 resistance can stop the damage of a level 100 skill. No, the attack is a combination of the skill level and the rank of the person. Unless a person has defence skills, it is not possible to stop an attack completely.

Of course, even if they lack skills, they could have protective artifacts that can save them from surprise attacks or attacks that they have no defence against.

This is the problem I am facing at this moment.

I have no idea what those pesky flies have in their possession. I have no idea about their skills. I have nothing on them, except where they are at the moment.

I mean, I can\'t even hear what they are saying to each other at this moment. I can feel the movement and they are making hand signs but I have no idea what they mean.

It\'s not like the hand signals are universal.

Sure when a large group like an army is involved for better understanding a common method would be used. If they use uncommon methods, there is a high chance that they will misunderstand them.

In fact, I read that there are several such incidents. There was a mage who misread the hand signal and fired a Fireball at the warehouse instead of up into the sky. That warehouse stored magic crystals, which ignited by the Fireball blew up the entire warehouse and much of the surroundings.

So to make sure such incidents won\'t repeat, the entire military of the kingdom follows a single hand gesture guide. I read that guide and what they are using is not from that.

Though there is a common guide, it is said that special forces use their own signals. Sometimes even teams would change their hand signals in order to confuse the enemies if they had eyes on them.

So I can say for sure that the hand signals are from their personal guidebook.

There is no easy way for me to interpret those signals. Unless they do things repeatedly, I would have no way to discover what those signals would mean.

Hmm, one of them took out a device and he typed something. I can\'t see or guess from here as I could only sense them, not see them. This was the third time he did after I discovered them.

Every time that he did, another one had given him a particular signal.

All three times, the same signal is followed by the same action, which means the signal is used to order the other one to take out the device and type something.

I have no idea what he did with the device but I believe that he may be updating the mayor, the one that put them on my track.

It was not the only thing that I got from that.

One of them gave the other a signal after every half an hour. It means there might be constant communication between the Mayor and these flies.

So I would have utmost half an hour to trap them and kill them before the Mayor starts to wonder why there was a delay in their updates.

I know that these three are shadowing me because they were ordered to but I don\'t like flies and the ones that sent those flies.

Squatting these flies would send a message to the Mayor or whoever was behind this to not mess with me.

Sure these three may have families, who would be saddened by their deaths but I am not a saint and they should have thought about this before taking up this job which could end them.

Shadowing someone would lead them to think that there are assassins out there to kill them. Otherwise, there was no need to hide in the shadows.

So only death awaits them, once they are found.

---

Finally, they fell for the trap. Now it is time to act quickly before they can escape or contact the outside world.

I mean they would be definitely equipped with communication devices and protection artifacts, as they are venturing outside where the dangers appear from any side and at any minute.

While travelling, it\'s best to be on guard, even if there are no visible dangers.

Dangers in this world wouldn\'t be visible to the eyes but would depend on other senses to see them. If sensing dangers is simple enough to get caught using your eyes, then the death rate would have been quite low.

So I was quick to respond. As soon as they fell into the trap, I started attacking them.

[Shadow Bolt]

[Blood Drain]

[Space Slash]

It wasn\'t easy to deal with these flies. Once I attacked they started to disperse in different directions. So I had to use different attacks to attack them and stop or slow them down.

"STOP".

"STOP...We are not the enemies".

"STOP...We are from the Mayor", they cried out.

"Do you take me for an idiot? Who would believe you?" I shouted back, making sure that if this incident was recorded, then I had no idea that they were actually from the Mayor.

It\'s best to portray them as assassins who came to kill me. Only then, no one could point fingers at me for this transgression.

I didn\'t stop my attacks and within the next few minutes, they were dead.

Oh, yeah, let\'s collect their souls. It has been long since I captured a human soul. They should have a lot of secrets to spill.

Unlike in their entire life where they would have been trained to not spill secrets if captured, that doesn\'t extend to the souls. Everything would be exposed to me and soon I would have the secrets that the Mayor is hiding about this mission.

Also, I have to find that sound.

Wait, where is that sound?

I can\'t hear it anymore.

What the hell happened?

Did the fight scare the creature?

Ah, I have to broaden the search by a lot. Damn the Mayor. Damn, those pesky flies. If not for them, I could have known what was calling me and maybe learn about what happened to those merchants and their group.
