<h4>Chapter 46: epting a Recruitment Mission</h4>


    Ignoring the debaucherous atmosphere, Davis followed the instructions of Case Farnwen to reach the Violet Joy House.


    When he arrived at that ce, he felt immensely awkward at being out of ce. He pushed aside those emotions and circled the Violet Joy House.


    While he circled the Violet Joy House, he could not hear any of those sounds that should''ve been normally heard in these kinds of ces.


    ''A soundproofing type formation, huh? How convenient…''


    While thinking about what other features this ce had, he arrived behind Violet Joy House.


    There was a dpidated door that was half-open. One would normally think that this ce is where they would procure the new women as ves.


    Davis moved closer to the half-broken down door as he checked for any formations that might perhaps alert some people. Seeing that there was no formation in his vision, he rxed and went inside.


    ''No formation? But that makes sense as well. It would only increase people''s suspicion and curiosity if there was one right at the entrance.''


    As he walked inside slowly while still being cloaked, he found a tunnel that led to an underground cer.


    In the underground cer, Davis could see a ck-robed man was seated there in a chair. He went slightly closer to him and checked around for any possible routes.


    Unfortunately, he didn''t find any routes but only found a formation. He then closed his eyes in contemtion.


    ''There''s no more route… only a sentry is put over in charge at this checkpoint… guess I could only go through him then…'' Davis sighed.


    Having decided his next course of action, he spoke in a hoarse voice while still being cloaked.


    "Are you the one who''s in charge of selecting recruits for the Dark Earth Organization?"


    "Who!?"


    The ck-robed man who heard that fell from his chair from being spooked by Davis.


    Davis then stopped using his Dark Concealing Shroud Art, which made him visible.


    The ck-robed man was now able to see the sudden appearance of a short old man who was also d in a ck robe.


    "Such concealment! Senior, you are surely an expert, which our Dark Earth Organization needs…" The ck-robed man sped his hands and bowed slightly.


    "So, what''s the method to join?"


    Hearing that, the ck-robed man was immensely joyful. He hurriedly exined the procedure for one to join the Dark Earth Organization.


    "For one to join the Dark Earth Organization, that person must be able toplete an assassination mission handed over by a certain person, and for this ce, that certain person is me."


    Saying that with an animated expression, he took out three scrolls and gave it to Davis.


    "Normally, I would give out only one scroll for a recruit toplete a mission, but since senior is so powerful, I can give out three scrolls. Senior can choose any one of them and hand over the remaining two scrolls. Actually, this process in itself is unnecessary for you as it is clear that you will be able to rank at least as a Peak-Level Earth Grade Assassin, but rules are rules. Without those rules, the higher-ups definitely will not be able to run this organization for much longer."


    The ck-robed man exined that he was afraid that senior would misunderstand why he was being given out such a low-level mission.


    "Wait, I never said that I wanted to join this Dark Earth Organization."


    Davis interjected while the ck-robed man''s eyes went wide in confusion.


    "What are the restrictions your organization imposes on its members?"


    Hearing that, the ck-robed man now understood and chuckled.


    "Haha, there''s no need to worry about that senior. Our organization doesn''t impose any restriction on its Earth Grade members and above. Only Mortal Grade members are confined to our branches until they can achieve Earth Grade Rank. With senior''s strength, the organization wouldn''t restrict your movements and whereabouts at all!"


    "In reality, our members just register themselves with their nicknames or titles, so their real identity is even hidden from the Dark Earth Organization as well unless they are stupid enough to reveal it."


    ''Good! With this, I will be able to increase my power quickly while assassinating people.'' Davis thought while celebrating inwardly.


    "Alright…" Davis turned to look at the three scrolls.


    He opened the first one.

    ]


    Reading that, Davis furrowed his brows.


    ''A person who runs an orphanage? An innocent?''


    He immediately closed it and saw the next one. His brows furrowed even further. It still concerned killing an innocent.


    ''Leave it, let''s see the next one.''


    He opened thest scroll and read it.


    [

    ]


    Davis groaned in disgust. He handed over thest scroll to the ck-robed man.


    "I choose this…"


    He then gave back the other two scrolls.


    "I see, guess senior doesn''t like killing the innocent. That''s fine as well." The ck-robed nodded while looking at the mission contents.


    Davis narrowed his eyes.


    "You''re determining my character?"


    "It''s not like that… but yes. For future references when I could possibly rmend some missions to you." The ck-robed man shook his hands.


    "Don''t bullsh*t with me! Spit out the truth." Davis used his soul to pressure the ck-robed man.


    He was in the Peak-Level Infant Soul Stage, with his soul being five times as powerful. It would even work against a High-Level Young Soul Stage expert, much less this weak ck-robed man.


    "I apologize, senior! It''s a part of the recruitment. We have to see at least what kind of an assassin you are…" The ck-robed man blurted out in fear.


    "Then what kind am I?" Davis hideously grinned, his expression baleful.


    "I-I… I think senior is someone who upholds moral values…" The ck-robed man gulped.


    A few seconds passed further, making him tremble in fear.


    "Hmph!" Davis then retracted his soul from pressuring the ck-robed man and turned back to leave.


    ''Next time, I should be careful of people probing me.'' He frowned while reflecting.


    "Senior! Don''t worry, when you return, I will keep some Peak-Level Earth Grade missions which are under your preferences so that you can climb up higher in rank!" The ck-robed man shouted.


    Davis ignored him and walked away while activating the Dark Concealing Shroud Art again.
