The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Chapter 255 255 - Learn Magic

However, as he asked that question, he got absolutely no answer from the system, it seemed that the system had said everything that it had wanted to, as Aiden heard for one last time a beeping noise in his mind.

*BEEP*

[You will be summoned into the trial in thirty seconds.]

Then as Aiden saw the countdown go down on his right, he made to build a small plan in his mind as he had already summarized all of the information previously.

The most important part of his plan was accumulating knowledge about how enchanting stuff works in that world that was the thing which was making Aiden worried right now.

He knew that getting money wouldn't be too hard if he were to offer his service as an assassin, however, that wasn't the goal of the trial and Aiden had already been notified of it, so he knew that this option was out.

'Wait, maybe I could amass money by acting like an assassin at the start. Would that be allowed?' Aiden asked the system in his mind.

He wanted to know if he could potentially utilize the strategy that he had just come up with.

He knew that the chances weren't that great, however, he still went for it as he wasn't sure if it counted as not being an enchanter.

[You can act like an assassin at the start of the trial, however, after you open your shop. You can't use any of your skills related to the Assassin class.]

It seemed that the system had just added a new rule which made Aiden much weaker from the moment that he would be opening his shop which meant that acquiring knowledge would be even more important now that he knew of this.

'How could I get knowledge?' He thought, as he glanced at the timer on his left which was starting to get really low.

It kept going down, however, it didn't make Aiden too worried as he knew that he wouldn't be appearing in some sort of strange situation.

He was simply a vagabond who came from far away after all.

Then, there were five seconds left on the timer and Aiden could already feel his body turning into particles.

After a few moments, his body started reappearing as Aiden once again got used to his sight once again since he had lost it for a short moment while reappearing in this place.

Then, as he realized that he really had made it in a new world, Aiden immediately looked down analyzing what he was wearing.

And as he did so, he confirmed that he really was in his body and not in someone else's.

Also, his clothes hadn't changed at all as he still had the same one as earlier.

Now, all he needed to do was observe his surroundings and the gigantic city that was just in front of him.

As he raised his head, he was able to glance at the city which was the one that he would be entering. 

However, it seemed that the city wasn't without defensive measures as Aiden was able to see gigantic stone ramparts which surrounded it and he could also see some figures roaming on the top of it, going back and forth again and again.

Nonetheless, he didn't worry too much about it as he tried his hardest to glance at what was behind those ramparts, but no matter how much he wanted to see what the interior of the city looked like, he couldn't.

This meant that he could only start walking in the city's direction, he hoped that nothing would go wrong since he was in a trial after all, even if there weren't any direct enemies, he knew that there would be some complications since he would need to gain a lot of knowledge in the coming month.

Then, he heard a beeping sound and directly focused on what appeared in front of him.

[3 Months Left until the end of the trial.]

It seemed that the system hadn't forgotten to activate the time limit timer, however, it didn't make Aiden worry at all as he still had so much time to reach 100,000 Reputations Points.

Then, after giving a quick glance at the countdown on the top right, he continued walking toward the city's ramparts.

'I hope this world is related to magic or something like that,' Aiden thought, as he knew that this would be the best-case scenario for him since it would make his task of learning magic a little bit easier.

Well, the tasks of learning illusions and other things which are related to that.

Then, a few minutes later, Aiden was right under the ramparts of the city, looking up toward two guards who were on top of them.

The two guards were at the moment shouting at Aiden.

"Who are you and why are you coming to the Magic City?" One of the guards exclaimed, seemingly not pleased with Aiden's arrival.

'Why are they talking to me like that?'

'And did they just say Magic City, what sort of shitty name is that?' Aiden thought, unsure as to why someone would name a city that way.

However, he didn't think too much about that as he needed to respond to the two guards who were just above him.

"My name is Aiden, Aiden Nightshade and I come from far away," Aiden said, feeling somewhat weirded out by actually saying his real name.

He was so used to hiding it that he had to admit that it was extremely weird for him to reveal it to some random people.

Well, who cares if it was weird, it felt great to do so.

"And why are you coming to the Magic City?" The guard repeated, seemingly not convinced by what Aiden had just said.

Right after saying that, Aiden came up with an answer on the spot without thinking for even a moment.

"To learn magic, isn't it obvious?"
