That morning, the borders of the Gundam Shelter welcomed 2 new parties.

Every month, new warriors looking to pave a way to greatness for themselves migrated to this chaotic shelter even as those who already settled here died in droves from the chaos that reigned here.

After months of preparation and even having to serve a punishment, Arthur Holmes and his entourage finally arrived at this notorious shelter.

Arthur's eyes seemed to burn with the anger of ambition and revenge as he looked at this shelter from on top his mount. "So, this is where you are".

2 years ago, Arthur was a nobody, just one of the numerous talented warriors who were all tipped to be the best of the new generation of Holmes mystic warriors until his father, one of the executioners of this ancient family stepped in.

By artificially helping Arthur to grow stronger and by pulling some strings that sold his freedom, he was able to make his son become the chosen warrior. f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮

Once Arthur was anointed by the 3 Grey Watchers, the mandate of the family to eliminate all remnants of the Ancient Vector family finally fell on his shoulders.

The pressure from carrying such a huge responsibility at a young age was much, but with the guidance and secret help of his father, Arthur was able to prove up to the task as he finally pinpointed the location of the last Vector.

Once he got the location of the last Vector, as a gift for this achievement, his father rewarded him by handing over custody of the Scorpion to him.

Scorpion was just one of the different powerful mystic warriors that were caught under the ruthless tentacles of the Ancient Holmes family, giving out one of them to the best youngster of the family was acceptable by everyone.

Arthur got Scorpion's strength but he also got the headache as Scorpion was not the docile one who simply obeyed orders without objecting.

The only grip that they had on him was his love for his daughter.

Taking advantage of this grip, Arthur had the Scorpion do things for him which all culminated into the raid and attack in the King Resistance Shelter.

Arthur thought that he already planned for everything, but due to one moment of mishap in the form of the Butcher Mama, he missed it all as he ran with his tails behind his legs while Rex escaped.

The 3 Watchers were not impressed but they let him go again. It was after his 2nd failure that the Watchers finally lost their patience with him.

On returning to the Great Alpha Shelter, Arthur received his first punishment which lasted 2 months and it was personally done by the 3 Watchers.

After spending 2 months alone in the dark world of the Watchers, Arthur came out traumatized and broken. He needed more than a month to recover.

Once he did recover though, the Watchers gave him his last chance. It was either he came with Rex Vector's head or his own head served on a gold plate.

The trauma of being reprimanded and punished by the Watchers, and now the ultimatum from them threatened to kill completely Arthur's mentality but once again it was his father who rose to the challenge.

After a lengthy session where this man explained the realities of life to him, Arthur finally came out of his slump stronger and motivated than ever before.

Since then, he started his preparations to really take down Rex. Since this was his last chance at it, he gave it his all.

For over a month, Arthur was busy drafting the basic parts of his plan. The rest parts of the plan would be completed when his entourage finally got to the Gundam Shelter, but for now, the last thing was Scorpion.

For the first time in all his life, Arthur spoke convincingly without any ounce of arrogance to Scorpion. Like his father advised, he lied that his daughter would finally be released to him after this last mission succeeded.

Well, his father was right. On being promised that, the Scorpion became even more motivated than he was for the mission to be a success.

During his heydays, the Gundam Shelter was among the different shelters where he plied his trade which made it easier for him to be a pivotal member now.

He spearheaded the team's actions and movements until they got to the Gundam Shelter. And now, even here, he was still the spearhead.

Scorpion's fiery red eyes were narrowed as he looked. "From what I gathered; the Vector descendant is already a big figure in the Red zone".

"To avoid attracting his attention, let us enter through the backway".

Entering through the backway of smuggling had its disadvantages since they had to leave all their powerful mystic vehicles and others behind.

Despite the disadvantages, they were able to feel safe and out of the public eye as they were smuggled in. Entering the Gundam Shelter though was just the first step to more planning as Arthur turned to Scorpion for help.

Scorpion replied coldly. "I once had a friend here, an Energy Blocker".

"What's an energy blocker?" Arthur asked, prompting an extremely rare smile to emerge on Aragorn's face as he turned to look at him.

"A mystic warrior that you don't want to meet in battle".

...

A few months ago, a new international assassin group burst into the scene, they called themselves the Sad Flute Assassins.

Despite their recent rise, they already established themselves in just a few months as the current most feared assassin group.

Having been involved in missions that saw them assassinate world leaders in several of the small shelters, they were already wanted in both a good and bad way in different corners of the earth rim.

They were rumored to have only 3 Peak Assassins who were the leaders of this notorious organization, and of the 3, only one was female.

All 3 Peak Assassins were rumored to be extremely powerful Advanced mystic warriors with the weakest of them already achieving the 7th tier.

The only female among them, the Snake Empress was Cassandra.

After the intimate session with Rex more than 6 months ago, Cassandra migrated to the Seraphim shelter where through her future knowledge, was able to join the Sad Flute Assassins that would soon be on the rise.

Due to her impeccable timing, she was able to witness it when this organization finally discovered the Evolution Pool that changed their fortune.

Like the others, she enjoyed this important advantage and already bathed on the evolution pool several times. What she had different from her peers was the outstanding knowledge that she returned with from her previous life.

Despite being just an Intermediate mystic warrior when she arrived, through her knowledge, she was able to improve rapidly with the speed of a rocket.

After they got the Evolution Pool 2 months after her arrival, a month later, Cassandra became an Advanced mystic warrior which was completely outrageous.

In another 2 months, she completely broke every common sense that was already established about the growth of mystic warriors as she rapidly climbed the ranks all the way to her current stage of the 8th tier of this mystic realm.

After all her achievements, she easily became the 2nd strongest mystic warrior in the whole organization, thereby becoming the 2nd Peak Assassin.

She was well-known in the assassin organization as the Snake Empress not only through her mystic abilities, but also through her achievements, having single-handedly assassinated more than a dozen prominent figures already.

A few weeks ago, she brought a proposal to the council of Peak Assassins. The Snake Empress wanted the Sad Flute Assassins to embark on an extremely ambitious mission that shocked the other 2 Peak Assassins.

"Due to the Evolution Pool, the Sad Flute Assassins will only keep on getting stronger as the months and years rolls by".

"We'll get strong to an extent where we start thinking of extending our base of operations to the Great Shelters. Before doing that though, we have to start our foundations by focusing on much more easier feats first".

"Like they said, little drops of water makes a mighty Ocean".

"The Sad Flute Assassins deserve to be the secret owner, controller, and leader of a shelter. All the shelters are official, and that leaves us with only one truly chaotic shelter without laws, the Gundam Shelter".

"I say we make the Gundam Shelter our first pawn. As assassins, we don't need to build a base, we simply need to take over and control things from the dark".

"This is after secretly subduing the major powers there".

Once they heard her suggestion, for a second, the Lightsaber Ghost and the King of Daggers thought she was crazy but after remembering their interactions throughout the months, they concluded that she was always crazy. freℯ𝓌e𝚋𝐧𝘰vℯl.𝐜𝚘𝗺

They wanted to think about it but Cassandra added. "You know, if we are not ambitious enough, other more ambitious enemies will take us and tear us apart".

"Our Evolution Pool is priceless, what guarantees that every assassin will forever be loyal to our cause? Once the truth of our rise becomes known, enemies will come from all sides just to snatch it away from us".

"By then, if we are not prepared, think of our fate".

This was actually how the Sad Flute Assassins died and faded into obscurity in her previous life so hearing it now, it rang to the 2 other Peak Assassins strongly.

They did not contemplate any longer, they gave their consent. "Let's do it!"

That was when the first traces of the Sad Flute Assassins finally started appearing in the Gundam Shelter unannounced and unprovoked.

Cassandra was determined to reunite and finally get to help her man.
