Valentino
67
7- Heading towards the forest to search for his target, the path was further away from Mystic Castle than he thought — only being lit up by moonlight shining through fogged night skies. Crows cawed in the distance, almost as if the ominous atmosphere itself was a warning. — It didn’t take long before Valentino spotted his target; An old man with ripped clothes and scratched up skin, seemingly drunk judging by the way he walked. His face discreetly covered by a dark helmet made out of metal with devilish horns attached to each side of the head. Sceptical but nonetheless wanting to seem innocent, Valentino waved politely at the man and took a few steps towards him. All the while hiding the sharpened dagger behind his back.
“Why hello, good sir. May I just ask; what exactly are you doing here at this hour? This path isn’t the most safest route to take. Especially in the middle of the night.”
The man turned around and waved his arms in the air like he owned the place. “Who’re you? You formal bastards don’t know shite about me! I’m THE Bulfasar!” Valentino snorted. “Ah. The mighty dark knight of Mystic Castle. The king must’ve gotten cold feet when he threw your arse out. A shame, really.” Bulfasar cursed, clearly offended. “YOU SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOU-“ Without much effort Val pulled out the dagger behind his back and lunged at the man — holding his head in place while aiming the blade at his neck.“HAHGH-! HEY!—!YOU-SON-OF-A-BITCH! GET TE HELL OFF M-“ Wet sounds and violent gurgling filled the air as he slit the man’s throat. “Shhhh~. Don’t struggle. It’s pointless.” Silence, followed by a thud. He hacked off his head and carried it under his arm, discarding the dagger in a rose bush before walking back towards the castle. But he stopped at the sight of a beautiful woman, Kitt; A lady his age. She was very pale, slim, had white long straight hair and wore a black knee length silk dress with black heels. Her red eyes fixed on the corpse. Smirking.
