The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

"Do you feel anything yet?" Anna asked, knowing that it was still the same answer as earlier.

There was no doubt in her mind, that Evelynn had lost access to her mana forever. Maybe that was something that she would be able to work on later, a way to control the duration.

The more she thought about it, the more she thought about it. But, that was only details… she had done it, her potion was usable and Aiden would be able to use it the way he wanted.

Anna had no idea what he wanted to do with it, but she didn't care nor would she ask questions. That potion had given her so many ideas for future projects. In fact, she sort of felt indebted for the ideas that she had given him.

That was also one of the reasons why she hadn't given him the potion because she knew the risks that were involved with that version.

"I don't… I don't feel anything, help me," Evelynn said as she started to cry in front of both Aiden and Anna.

It had been one hour since she had drank the potion and there were still no changes, there was no way for her to use her mana. It was a weird feeling but that was life, it seemed that she would be ending her life unable to cast the slightest spell.

"Aiden, do something. Fix this and I'll forget about the deal that we made beforehand, but please… just fix this," Evelynn muttered with some difficulty as even more tears started to come out of her eyes.

She seemed completely desperate, this was her whole life. There needed to be something that she would be able to do.

However, Aiden couldn't care less about what was happening to Evelynn, her job was done and Aiden would now be able to go and kill the director without the slightest problem.

The fact that there was no time limit attached to the potion was even better all things considered.

It would give Aiden more time and more opportunities if his first try were to fail. Even if that would be something quite surprising since there was no way that Aiden would be losing close range against a mage that had practiced holding a dagger for a few days.

There was no way that such a thing would be happening and if it did… Aiden would be depressed. 

"How do you want me to fix this, just wait a little more and the effects will disappear, right?" Aiden said trying to comfort her.

While saying that, he gave a look toward Evelynn, wanting her to comfort her and confirm what he was saying that way Evelynn would stop panicking.

Aiden knew that it was a valid reason to be stressed, however, he didn't want to deal with this right now. He appreciated the fact that she was the one who had taken the potion and he would try to do something to pay her back in the future.

However, when Aiden looked into Anna's eyes, he noticed that there was something completely different in the look that he was receiving.

"Did I hear that correctly?" She said, wondering what Aiden would be saying, however, the only thing that she received was confusion.

"Hear what correctly?" Aiden asked.

"The name that she uttered, wasn't it Aiden… wasn't your name Gerald?" Anna asked as she knew the identity of a person named Aiden.

Aiden tried acting like he didn't know what she was talking about, however, his attempts didn't seem to be working well at all.

"Um, she just made a mistake… there's no need to worry about it."

Anna frowned and got a little closer to Aiden's face who was currently changed, "Are you the director's disciple?"

However, the more Anna spent time looking at Aiden's face, the more she realized that he looked nothing like the disciple of the director.

But, she remembered that David had told her that she might get a visit from her disciple soon, however, that meeting had never appeared.

Evelynn who was on the ground hearing this, didn't care one bit. In fact, she was wondering why Aiden had become the focus of the conversation… she was the one who needed help at the moment. So, why were they ignoring her?

"Who cares about him? Look at me!" Evelynn shouted with a lot of frustration. "Yes, his name is Aiden and he's trying to trick you into thinking that he is someone completely different."

"Is that true?" Anna asked as she realized that what she was hearing made a little bit of sense.

There were a lot of things that suddenly made sense. First of all, there was the fact that Aiden was only available at night, there was also the fact that the director had told her that she would be meeting her disciple soon.

A lot of things suddenly started clicking in her mind. The person in front of her was in fact the disciple of David, and he came to see her under a new identity. However, she had no idea why he would be doing such a thing.

'Probably a request from the director, trying to take over a new identity for some reason,' Anna thought, not thinking too much about it.

'Should I tell her the truth?' Aiden thought, unsure if this was the good decision in that scenario.

However, the more he thought about it, the more he realized that maybe it wasn't that bad of an idea. Even if she were to tell the director, he wouldn't have any problem since it would be able to tell him that he was trying to create a potion that would be helping his training.

In fact, if the director knew about it, it would become a positive thing as he might feel even more indebted toward Aiden.

"Uh…" Aiden muttered, acting like he wasn't sure if he could tell her. "Yeah, I am… I'm the director's disciple, Aiden Nightshade."

As he said that, his black hair and the color of his eyes changed to the usual white and red.
