Ms. Honey Badger is reading quietly in her residence on Fifth Circle.
Although she was absolved of her crimes by the Pope in a sense, this did not mean that she would be completely free. Her travels were still restricted, and two papal guards were responsible for guarding her. But other than that, she
requirements will be met as much as possible.
Alice was also informed of the situation facing the Honey Badger, and she would serve as a messenger to bring this news, the Honey Badger's handwritten letter, and the final payment promised by Cardinal Loki back to the Hawkeye Organization. Now she must have
Arriving at Iris, I delivered all the things that needed to be sent to the people who needed to go.
With nothing to do, Honey Badger wanted to try to walk the path of devotees. So he asked the papal guard who was guarding him for a few books and studied them quietly here.
For an adaptor, enduring loneliness and adapting to loneliness are basic skills. Whether it is an assassin who wants to remain silent in the dark, or a hunter who hunts in the forest, or those who have clearly seen the future but cannot follow it.
People speak of prophets and astrologers... adapting to the path is always associated with silence.
Instead of worrying about the organization's economic and political situation, she didn't have to go out on difficult missions to make money with information full of loopholes, and she didn't have to wipe the butt of those stupid young assassins... On the contrary, she felt that her mental state was much better.
.
Until this afternoon - the two papal guards guarding her suddenly asked her to go somewhere.
Her first reaction was that Aiwass had repented and the Theocracy was planning to execute her secretly...
It took her a while to realize that this was the Theocracy, not the Iris Kingdom she was familiar with. The elves were far less treacherous than she thought, and the new Pope really wanted to see her for something.
When she went to the 22nd Circle, she saw Cardinal Aiwass in black robes and the former Eternal Pope wearing the Holy Crown.
"...His Majesty the Pope."
She knelt down on one knee and bowed her head respectfully to the two popes: "Please give me your instructions."
Although Honey Badger has never become a private assassin, after all, she has lived for so long, and she has seen them before - facing the two popes, she directly showed the attitude of those raised private assassins towards their masters.
"I do have something to entrust you with."
Aiwass said seriously: "I need you to leave the Theocracy temporarily."
After hearing the familiar task instructions, the honey badger, who was still a little hesitant and cowered, suddenly became energetic and a strong sense of confidence arose spontaneously.
Although she has been a fifth-level assassin master for a long time, she has basically never been exposed to high-level affairs. One of the reasons is that she doesn't like to use her brain. Many adaptors are also liars and conspirators.
But she is not among them.
Rather than sitting around a long table discussing the headaches of personal political positions, partisan political ideas, the subtext behind special operations, social impact and public opinion, and the chain reactions that may occur after various actions... she would rather take the time to answer the question.
Kill someone alone and then run back to hear the final result.
And usually, by the time she comes back after killing someone, most of those people haven't finalized their plans yet.
"Is it an assassination mission?"
Honey Badger skillfully asked: "Or sneak in to destroy? Or steal information? Or escort important people and rescue hostages?"
"It's considered an escort."
Aiwass nodded and asked, "Does your Hawkeye have a branch in Star Antimony?"
"There is no branch...are you talking about the team that is performing the task? There is."
"Is there anything you don't like? Or do you think you can't integrate into the members of the Theocracy?"
Aiwass continued to ask.
When the honey badger heard this, she immediately reacted - although she doesn't like to use her brain, it doesn't mean that she is not smart.
"In other words, do you need a group of Hawkeye members who can be discarded?"
"Yes."
"There are some."
The honey badger didn't even think, and answered without hesitation.
——There is no doubt that she has already thought of the candidate.
In order to eradicate the Moon Children, she and her companions who are Hawkeyes can also betray - or sacrifice. The reason why these thieves, killers, prostitutes, gamblers, liars, criminals and other people living in the gutter gather together
, largely to fight against the Son of the Moon together.
In a situation where the Children of the Moon will always try to penetrate upwards and continue to become elites, poaching people from the bottom of society is the safest way. This can prevent high-level people in the organization from being quietly transformed into Children of the Moon.
Because even if they want to betray the organization, the Children of the Moon still look down on them. It is impossible for them to give the "gift of eternal youth and immortality" and their noble blood to these dregs among the scum - the transformation of the Children of the Moon requires love.
In addition to the corpse of the path, the "fathers" who are the transformers also need to give a part of the origin of life.
Even if there are children of the Moon who risk their lives and choose to accept these betrayers despite their disgust in order to find the traces of Hawkeye, they are only a minority after all.
And this inevitably leads to their organization not being pure enough... Although there are some righteous knights who quietly hide in the darkness, there are more of them who stick together for warmth and survive today without tomorrow.
There is a 100% chance that villains with ulterior motives, dishonest intentions, and weak minds will sneak in, and even get to the top.
And there is no way to avoid this, and there is no way to try to change their thinking or educate them.
Because a person who suddenly changes can easily reveal flaws in his daily life, thus attracting people's attention and being discovered by the ubiquitous Sons of the Moon and Blood Slaves - Hawkeye is not a secret organization, their reputation is quite good.
Loud. Only a group of people who are rotten to the core and rotten in the mud can forever avoid those children of the Moon with mysophobia.
But things are different now.
Because even Hawkeye himself knows that it will be difficult for them to completely defeat the Children of the Moon. If the Theocracy can use the power of the Theocracy to target the Children of the Moon, then most of the previous principles, practices, behavior patterns... and even formal members can be used
was abandoned.
Of course she also has feelings for those bad people who stick together for warmth.
But when it's time to give up, she will never hesitate -
--For the greater good.
Honey Badger thought so, and suddenly there was a touch of red like the sunset in her pupils, which flickered like a cigar that was lit and extinguished in the dark.
"Well, listen up...honey badger."
Aiwass, who was wearing a black robe, ordered: "I ask you to take two people to Star Antimony. Send the target person safely to the designated location, and give her some information about the Eagle Eye stronghold..."
Aiwass didn't finish his words.
The honey badger suddenly sniffed and frowned.
She smelled a somewhat familiar smell...it was the smell of "Child of the Moon" that she had smelled from Aiwass before.
Immediately afterwards, Aiwass waved his hand.
A shadow curtain outside the honey badger's induction suddenly withdrew. It was the power of high-level magic. As a fifth-level adaptor, the honey badger didn't notice the curtain at all.
I saw an aristocratic lady with long black hair sitting quietly in the corner of the room, with a crow on her shoulder. She looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old... and the honey badger noticed it immediately.
Yes, it was her pupils that were shining with blood-red light.
The crow's pupils are also the same blood-red color.
——It’s the son of the moon!
"...Let her kill those Hawkeye members in a high-profile way, and then find a way to sneak into the local Moonchild circle."
