Ellie sat in front of a jade table, and there was a palm-size rectangular white sheet placed on it. She held a long thin brush which was shimmering in a purplish hue as she elegantly made strokes on the white paper.

With every stroke, a purplish line would appear on the paper despite there wasn't any sort of ink, and thereby it turned into a rune symbol. With every successfully carved rune symbol, the white paper seemed to be pulsing.

When the fifth rune symbol was done, her hand stopped moving before the white paper suddenly encased in a purple brilliance. Thereupon, the brightness fades away, and what is left is the white paper with a purple line pattern all over it. The runes have vanished somehow.

Ellie doesn't seem to be surprised by it as she places the white brush, which now looks like a normal paintbrush, on the jade table and then picks up a small crystal stamp beside it.

It also shimmered in a purple hue before she turned the white paper around and stamped its empty size with her stamp, and when she removed it, a beautiful symbol of a purple eagle which looked extremely vivid, appeared on it.

She muttered with a hint of satisfaction, "I can finally create an Intermediate-Type-2 Talisman on my first try. I am getting closer to reaching the intermediate stage of the Rune Artificer Elder Grandmaster Rank."

At this moment, she suddenly frowned as she looked at her wrist before a projection appeared, and the next moment a hint of shock flashed past her eyes when she was a message, and there was a video file attached to it.

"Faceless Ancient Sent Mail: I have killed 682 people today, and I don't know who was who since they all came after me. But I'm pretty sure over half of them were universal mercenaries.

"I have no way to confirm their identities, but I do record their appearances, and there is also the exact moment of me killing these guys, so this video is legit. There were also some other guys, but their appearances weren't 'presentable' or 'intact.'

"Anyway, I don't know how you're going to confirm their identities since it would be a hassle, so Vice President, you can just send me 150,000 ZC for this service, and we'll consider the trade between us a success."

"682?! Does he think I'm an idiot?" Ellie muttered in disbelief, but still, she opened the video file.

The video file was an hour long, and as she played it, she was instantly captivated by it when she saw the starting scene was of some black-clad guy who was seemed to hiding in a tree, but almost instantly, that guy's head started rolling down, it was simply too fast, and then the scene changed.

"What?" Ellie was bewildered as her disbelief expression turned solemn. She then activates the 360-degree video mode as any video recorded by a type-1 Star Watch was a 360-degree video by default.

Furthermore, the video quality was like a movie, and everything was clear as day. There was even a 50X slow motion option in the videos recorded in advance type-1 Star Watches.

But Ellie's start watch can go to 1000X slow motion, and she used it without hesitation to watch the first scene frame by frame, and she watched Jacob, not the dead guy.

In the end, her eyes were filled with disbelief and a hint of appalling, "Just what kind of monster is he?"

She then watched the next scene, and there was the same result. Toward the end, there were just recording of dead bodies. There were only 40 scenes where Jacob was seen beading people like he was cutting chickens, and those scenes were all recorded at the exact moment he was going to deliver the killing blow, not the entire process.

Still, just this much was enough to reveal his capabilities in the assassination, and not only that, but Ellie also noticed some dead bodies at the end were completely charred and missing limbs, as if they were at the center of a terrifying explosion.

Ellie took a deep breath before her lips curled up in an icy smile, "We only wanted to test his capabilities by giving him this mission, but he's out of our expectations. Even Dad might've never thought that he was capable of this kind of feat.

"When he suggested that he would be capable of coming in here without us interfering. He only said there were over 30% chances of us winning, and even if Lucy ended up breaking the bet or we did, we won't lose a thing.

"On the other hand, Lucy would've suffered losses to take the champion of the rare plains down. But just this much loss to the bank is enough to get Lucy to bleed like the old bitch she is.

"It seemed our 30% chances have increased to 55%, and if we can interfere with Lucy's interference and stop her from killing him to void the bet, those chances will rise to 80%!

"I need to tell Dad. Soon Lucy would start to take it even more seriously!" Ellie's eyes shimmered in excitement, but she stopped all of a sudden and then opened another application which was the bank application.

"I should reward my dog first to keep him happy. He wanted 150K ZC. I'll give him 200K to make him even more obedient!" With a dark smile, she transferred 200k ZC to Jacob's account.

Then she instantly contacted the Guild President, Nelsen!

While Ellie was gloating at her good luck, someone else was going to suffer from bad luck.

Lucy was looking at the projection of an elegant elf male as her usually aloof eye were filled with disbelief as she asked, "So, you're saying you lost all contact with our hunting group over an hour ago? What about the team members?"

"I've already tried multiple times, but none of them is responding. I've already sent another small team to investigate the situation!" The elf respectfully replied with a hint of trepidation in his voice.

"Inform me as soon you receive any news!" Lucy cut the call with a frown.

"What is going on?" She muttered.

However, at this moment, she received a message from Ellie, and when she read it, she knew something was extremely wrong,

'Amiable Monk Fish (Reply): Sending your men to die, how sad. I wonder how the Bank will react!'
