Assassination System

Among the summoned men were three Forgers of the Gang called Monali, Giovanne, and Patrick, both men looked sturdy with their arms bulging like a body-builder.

But now, this three men wore irritated expressions on their faces as they mumbled, "What kind of nonsense is she announcing again? Doesn\'t she know that we\'re in the middle of creating weapons? A single moment of lagging in our concentration will result in failure!" They complained but Caitlyn didn\'t bother about them, instead, she inwardly sneered.

After Caitlyn recruited these three bastards from the Great Wilderness of Torb, they said that they were reputable Forgers of their time but when they were tasked to create simple crossbow weapons. Their success rate didn\'t even surpass thirty percent.

The lost that the Gang suffered every day paired with their arrogance as mighty Forgers made the other members of the Gang, infuriated about their antics. If not for the fact that they needed them to repair their weapons, they would\'ve already thrown them back at the Great Wilderness.

The three men stood side by side with their heads raised proudly at the skies. Ever since they became the Forger of these Gang, they enjoyed fame and riches that they never experienced back at their homeland.

Although they claimed to be reputable Forgers. The truth was all of them were only carpenters that were sentenced to be exiled after being convicted of murder. But since the Gang didn\'t have any means of confirming that, they could rest assured that no one would find any hole in their stories.

Clapping her hands together, Caitlyn gathered the attention of the men and everyone turned their heads at her. "From now on, the three Forgers, Monali, Giovanne, and Patrick will be fired. They will be replaced by Dan."

She only spoke two sentences but this became like a thunderbolt which struck the minds of everyone in the scene, particularly the three Forgers whose expression quickly distorted in anger and shame.

How dare she do this to us?! Didn\'t she know about the consequences of firing your own Forgers? Without weapons for your troops, you may as well just commit suicide!

The men who didn\'t like the three couldn\'t help but frown, even if their attitudes were haughty and arrogant. At the least, they could provide them with weapons to use. But now that their leader fired them, who would replace their post?

Their gazes landed on a young man whose figure looked feminine and when their eyes landed on his frail hands, they doubted their eyes and rubbed it for a moment. But when they looked again, they found the same thing as they voiced their complaints.

"Miss Boss! This guy\'s arms look too weak to even carry a hammer! How can we expect him to forge weapons for us?"

"That\'s right, that\'s right, Miss Boss, what are you doing?"

Despite the incessant voices of complaints, Caitlyn remained stoic and declared as she used her cultivation base as a pressure to directly stifle their resistance,"Shut up! I have already handed over my decree, if you have any complaints, voice it to Dan!"

Everyone became silent like scolded kids and Dan who was suddenly called out shook, he stared at Caitlyn with a complicated expression on his face. However, when he turned, the former stared at him with a smile before coquettishly saying, "Consider this matter as a repayment for me, helping you cure your comrade..."

Sighing to himself, Dan could only accept this as he stepped forward. Suffusing an indifferent expression, he said, "Those who are not satisfied with me being assigned as a Forger, come step forward."

Bang!

Literally, everyone took a step forward as they stared at Dan with vicious expressions. Especially the three fired Forgers whose face twisted into different colors.

Glancing at the men, he gestured, "The three of you, come here, since you look like you\'re dissatisfied about the Miss Boss\' decision, let\'s decide this with a quick contest..."

Everyone\'s eyes stared at Dan with a light of shock and doubt, but some shone in admiration as they thought.

How bold! To think that he would directly challenge the three Forgers, it seems like this boy-toy isn\'t so simple...

The expressions of the three men turned vicious, "Brat, what kind of qualifications do you have to shame us like this? We worked hard for the Gang and ever since we were recruited, we tirelessly handed over weapons and armors for everyone to use but this is how you\'re gonna repay us?!"

Monali stepped forward and voiced his complaints. His tone carried a melancholic vibe and unwillingness to depart from the Gang. The two other men picked this clue up and they stood right beside each other, suffusing wronged expressions on their faces.

Dan stared in amusement at the antics of the three while the other men shivered in cringe. How shameless! What handed over are they talking about? In each weapon they make, we\'re losing seven to eight batches of materials! What kind of forgers are you, you bastards!

Some men who were privy to inside information inwardly cursed while some who didn\'t know much about the matter became swayed by their acting. But Dan remained calm as he replied, "That\'s enough since Miss Boss has already passed her decision, we could only follow it." His eyes swept past the men, "But since the three of you are unwilling, we will decide if we follow her decision in a simple contest..."

Since Dan said so, the three men didn\'t have other chance but to oblige. And they felt quite confident about their chances of winning. After all, even if they were just carpenters, they made weapons for about several months already and were familiar with how every process works.

Seeing that the three went silent, Dan explained, "The competition is simple, as a Forger or Blacksmith, we will compete by making the most weapons in ten batches of materials! If we made the same amount, the quality of the weapons would be judged instead!"

The three men shook for a moment as Giovanne asked. "What kind of weapon will we make?" Dan smiled at them, "A sword!"

When they heard his words, they rejoiced in their hearts. If they claimed that they were the most knowledgeable people inside the Gang when it comes to weapons, particularly, Swords, No one would dare to object.

And now that Dan actually wanted to compete with them using Swords as a topic, they inwardly sneered, but on the outside, they maintained a dignified and righteous expression. After all, this was the time where they could show everyone their true prowess.

After receiving a pair of hammer and anvil along with a furnace of their own, the four received their batch of materials and under the gaze of the men, the four raised their hammers in the air and pounded!
