Shen DaiYings beautiful and slender figure melded into the dark scenery.

Charles Williams, eldest prince of Heino Kingdom, the future king, or the the cute bunny-like trap princess wearing gold laced robes, or, the Scarlet Fairy…

You can call him whatever you like, because in a couple of minutes, his life will be harvested with the blade on Shen DaiYings waist.

Thats right, Charles was her next target.

The reason she was sent this far to get on friendly terms with her fiancé, to participate in the academy tournament and to enter Despair Island… there was only one reason, it was all for this moment.

To assassinate Charles!

Shen DaiYing did not move, she silently stood still behind a tree and stared unblinking at the sleeping Charles.

She even suppressed her breathing, like a cheetah silently laying in ambush next to her prey, waiting for the kill.

The clouds tumbled through the night sky, a few rays of dim moonlight illuminated the forest and flashed by Shen DaiYings delicate cheeks.

If someone could see her current expression, they would definitely be frightened.

Usually, Shen DaiYing likes to squint her eyes, and her half-open half-closed eyes looked affectionate, but now, it contained none of that affection and charm.

It was spiritless, empty, and depressing.

Her pupils were dilated, she opened them to its fullest, wanting to catch even the faintest of light in this darkness.

Eyes were never decorations for beauty, nor for transmitting intimacy, but for seeing things.

To clearly see the position of prey, to confirm their movements, to use that pair of eyes to firmly lock onto the prey, not giving it any chance to escape, that is the purpose of eyes, for a killer.

Since the moment she left the team, she wasnt a princess anymore, neither was she Caesars fiancé, even more so wasnt someones love a first sight, she was but a machine, a killing machine.

Machines dont need emotions, theyre accurate, swift, and wont mess up, her only purpose for existing was to carry out missions.

Shen DaiYing knew that there was two paths headed towards Despair forest, one easy path along the river and the closer one through the valleys, she knew the confident Charles would choose the closer path.

So, she left Loran Academy behind and passed through the forest alone.

Her speed was several times faster than the other teams, even if she was wearing high-heels, she could dance through the valley and finally caught up to Charles when night fell.

But she never chose to immediately act, no matter how confident she was of her strength.

She was patient, carefully observing the prey and waiting for the perfect opportunity.

Killers only needed but one opportunity, even if she had to wait the entire night, just one opportunity to slit the preys neck was enough.

“Devoru, take a look over that, I think I heard something earlier.”

“Okay.”

Heino Academy was still doing their diligence and patrolling.

Shen DaiYing didnt move, she was still waiting.

Shes already waited for so long, she didnt mind waiting for a couple more hours.

Actually a couple or years ago, they made a mistake from being too impatient.

They thought they were well prepared and victory was within reach, and when they thought they finally cornered him and anxiously tried to take his life, they were exposed and were completely wiped out, using numerous lives to crown Charles with an unrivalled distinction… Scarlet Fairy.

This time, Shen DaiYing wont make the same mistake.

Charles is usually in the palace, so there were too many guards, even if he occasionally went out, he would be heavily guarded, so it was impossible to assassinate him.

Last year, he was seized by a whim and said that he wanted to participate in the academy tournament.

After finding that out, Shen DaiYing headed towards Lombard Kingdom and met up with her fiancé in advance.

The engagement was but a charade, the assassination was the true goal.

Charles had no way of bringing his guards to Despair Island, so even Shen DaiYing alone could easily kill him and could leave without leaving anything behind.

So, since the moment Charles decided to participate in the tournament, he was destined to die!

Shen DaiYing covered her face with a piece of cloth to hide her appearance, then grasped her sword, her movements clean and efficient… finally, this leopardess found her opportunity!

Now!

Just as she was about to leap out, for some reason, her pace was messed up, and waves began disturbing her tranquil heart.

Inexplicably, the figure of a black haired-youth appeared before her eyes and used an incomparably sincere tone to say something to her.

“Princess, I like you.”

“Eh … Is someone there”

Looking at the tree where Shen DaiYing hid herself, Devoru seems to have noticed something.

He quickly advanced with his spear and fiercely thrust out.

His sharp spear mercilessly pierced straight through the thick and sturdy tree.

“Was it just the wind… strange.”

Devoru only saw the pieces of wood left behind the tree, he shook his head, pulled out his spear and continued patrolling.

Of course, he didnt see the inconspicuous prints her high heels left behind and Shen DaiYing who used shadow blink.

“How keen, as expected of the Golden Lion.

Does he have special perception for killing aura”

After hiding behind another tree, she began observing Devorus movements while inwardly sighing.

Devoru was able to detect just that small fluctuation in her state of mind, if it wasnt for her skill, she would already have a gaping hole in her body.

“Whew, w-whats with me…”

She gently felt her left chest.

Thump, thump, thump… her rapid heartbeat was transmitted to her, and some surprise was shown in her emotionless eyes.

Nervousness

Who are you kidding, shes a killer! She has already taken numerous lives, and keeps calm any situation no matter how dangerous it is, so why is she suddenly nervous

The reason the assassination skills she uses is number one is not only because of its strength, more important, it trained ones state of mind and allowed them to become an emotionless killing machine, a perfect killer without fear and nervousness.

Such a state was called, Flower Burial.

Under such a state, there shouldnt be a fluctuation in her state of mind, but at that moment, not only did she hesitate, she even had hallucinations.

“Why him”

Shen DaiYing didnt know why she suddenly remembered the scene of when Lin Xiao first confessed to her.

Was it really as Xiao Hua said, was that man special

But, why

She didnt understand, Lin Xiao was no different that those other males that once chased after her, he was just as foolish and thought with the lower half of his body, only wanting her body, and she never accepted his feelings…

But why was her heart in such a mess

“Im willing to become your companion.”

Shen DaiYing suddenly lost her determination.

Why did she have to take a risk Why did she have to kill Charles

She was a graceful and charming princess, why did she have to do these kinds of things

Even if she couldnt accept Lin Xiaos feelings, wouldnt it be not bad just to go and get married to Caesar

The happiness she wanted was right in front of her, why couldnt she just extend her arms and grab it

One step, two…

Shen DaiYing slowly retreated instinctively, but on the third step she couldnt anymore.

Drip…

A teardrop landed next to her feet and quickly seeped into the ground, disappearing.

Shen DaiYing closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

She couldnt grab onto happiness even if it was right in front of her.

“Sister, wait for me…”

She silently prayed for that distant person and when Shen DaiYing opened her eyes once again, her eyes were replaced with that machine-like emptiness.

That was a perfect Flower Burial state, even if there were tears remaining in the corner of her eyes, she wouldnt feel anymore.

“Yawn… Devoru, why dont you go sleep for a while, Ill call you next shift.”

“No, I want to take a look over there.”

An opportunity!

Watching Devoru go patrol on the other side, Shen DaiYing knew that this was her chance!

Shadow Blink!

She gently tapped off the ground and her figure disappeared, appearing right next to Charles.

The pitiful little princess was hiding in her beautiful robe curled up not knowing the disaster that was coming to befall her.

“Shadow Kill, Heartbreaker”

Unlike the cherry dance, this time she gently pulled out Snow, without the pleasant sound or the splendid dance, only a dark red glint of her sword under the moonlight.

In an instant, she used the sword to slice open his throat then stabbed it straight into his heart.

Her movements flowed like water and the blade sunk into his body, like it wasnt even a person, just a slaughtered beast.

Up until the end, Charles couldnt even scream.

“Is it over just like that…”

She sheathed her sword and finally let out a sigh of relief.

It seems like the Scarlet Fairy was just that, after all he was only human, so he would disappear after having his neck cut and heart pierced, That legend was just a lucky coincidence.

“Wait… whats going on … Why isnt there any blood

As she was preparing to leave, she noticed that Charles wound wasnt bleeding! She bent down and investigated his body, after realizing the problem she instantly grabbed onto her sword.

“Dont bother, its a fake.”

“What”

She turned around and saw a human with short red hair.

That Scarlet Fairy was smiling at her.
