The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Chapter 229 229 - Hint



‘How can I see?’ questioned Aiden to himself as he didn’t have any clear answer since he, himself, ignored how he was able to in the first place.

His best bet was because of his past life where he had trained his eyes in the dark to a crazy degree, but even then he couldn’t really reveal that information to Isolde as his past life was his most important secret.

Instead of saying something completely unrelated or stupid, Aiden decided to say the truth.

“No idea, I just can,” he responded back out loud facing the direction where the voice of Isolde had resounded.

This time, there had been no actions being taken from Evelynn as she simply stood still listening to that conversation.

The reason why she hadn’t acted or restricted their conversation was extremely simple, she was also interested in the answers that Aiden would be giving.

After all, that was what she was trying to figure out, why could he see when there was an enchantment which was currently restricting such a thing?

Did he have past training?

‘No, there’s no way he has some, Melinda told me that he came from the Slums, so there’s simply no way. But, then how…’ thought Evelynn, racking her mind, trying to find an answer to the anomaly that was the Reaper.

In the first place, she had been surprised to hear that someone from a middle-level family had won.

Actually, surprised wasn’t the right word, she had been completely shocked by that information because in her mind it simply made no sense at all.

“You have no idea why you can see, huh?” muttered Evelynn as she slowly approached Aiden who could obviously not see her at the moment since she was a little too far away.

“I don’t,” replied Aiden as he knew that he was actually telling the truth. 

Well, he had an idea but he wasn’t sure.

“Then, I guess we have no choice but to make the enchantment a little stronger,” exclaimed Evelynn as she realized that her challenge wasn’t hard enough.

If Aiden were to find a way to succeed in this challenge just as fast as he did in the first then it would be somewhat of a problem since he would have way too much time for the rest of the challenges.

That’s why she needed to make sure that both Isolde and Aiden would be struggling this time.

Then, after a couple of seconds, the usual beeping sound resounded in both Isolde’s and Aiden’s minds.

BEEP

However, even if Aiden wanted to see what the message that had just appeared was, he couldn’t.

He was now truly blind, he was not able to see even a little bit in front of him.

Nonetheless, Aiden still didn’t panic as he had already expected such a thing to happen earlier when he had heard Evelynn say that she was going to strengthen the enchantment.I think you should take a look at

‘But is all this darkness really artificial?’ thought Aiden as he couldn’t imagine how such a thing was even possible.

Could enchantments really affect the real world?

Well, Aiden hadn’t been sure before, but seeing what was happening right now he had no choice but to acknowledge it.𝗇𝗈𝓋𝑒𝓛𝚗𝓮xt.𝒸𝒐𝓶

“Since the challenge is now a lot harder than before, I’ll give you a hint on how to gain your vision once again,” exclaimed Evelynn, knowing that it wouldn’t be fair if she just left without saying anything.

Before it would have been fine but with the increase in the difficulty she had no choice but to give them an idea of how to accomplish this challenge.

However, she would soon realize that it wasn’t a good idea to give a hint as Aiden probably wouldn’t have needed it in the first place.

‘I wonder what it would be?’ thought Aiden as he made sure to listen to every word that would be coming out of Evelynn’s mouth next.

If this hint could make this challenge easier for him, then there was absolutely no reason but to listen to her.

“I’ll give you the hint in a second, but before that, I will accept the two of you to help each other since the enchantment I just put up is quite frankly way too high of a level for the likes of you to break through. However, it wasn’t like I had a choice,” she said as she looked at the now-blind Reaper who wasn’t moving a single muscle.

This look that she was giving was simply because Aiden was the reason why she had to increase the difficulty.

However, to be completely honest, she didn’t mind it one bit. In fact, she found it a lot more intriguing to see how the two of them would work together to beat this enchantment and gain their sight back.

“But, the increase isn’t necessarily a bad thing since the skill which you will develop if you beat this enchantment will be much stronger than the one which you would have gotten before,” explained Evelynn, letting them know that this increase in difficulty wasn’t a bad thing at all and could be considered good.

“But, enough about that, it’s time to talk about that hint,” continued Evelynn, seemingly excited to reveal it.

‘Well, I won’t make it too easy or else it wouldn’t be fun,’ she thought as she was about to reveal.

“The key to seeing once again isn’t in your eyes,” she muttered, not saying anything else afterwards.

Aiden who just heard that was somewhat confused as this hint didn’t make any sort of sense.

‘How does this even make sense?’ he thought, unsure if he could trust this hint.

However, he quickly dismissed those thoughts as he heard the feminine voice of Isolde which wasn’t too far away from him.

“Where are you?” she shouted as loud as she could, making sure that Aiden would be able to hear it.

“Just stay where you are, I’m coming,” responded Aiden as he started heading in the direction where Isolde’s voice had just resounded.
