Walking, the usual clicks and clacks of his lace up boots, made no noise. Though it was rather hard to accomplish this, with the amount of training that this young man has had, it's in his nature to walk with no sound. It was was actually in his nature to be silent, it was weird for him to want to make noise, unless he was trying to get someone's attention like earlier in his mission. He saw someone down and out the window, walking around, he crouched down under the window. Though it was unlikely the man would look up, he did so anyways, just in case. Making his way down the halls, he heard the voice of a guard, most likely just talking to themselves, but this would be trouble. Hugging the wall, he peeked past the edge of the wall, a young woman was talking on the phone. Most likely a new guard, Lucius thought, letting out a soundless sigh. When the girl was turned, he snuck up behind her, having his knife in hand he stabbed her in the back. Though shocked, the security guard had great reflexes, whipping around and hitting him with a taser the the arm. This made the assassin jump backwards, ripping the blade out of the young female's back. Yelping she fell to the ground, the teenager held his arm which was still twitching slightly. Falling made the guard drop her taser, which the green haired mage then kicked away. Leaning down he grabbed her by her hair, lifted her, whimpering as he sliced his switchblade across her neck. As she drowned in her own blood, he picked her up, peering out the window to see if anybody was around. He unlocked it, then hopped out with the now corpse in his arms. Landing with his knees bent, he dropped the body in the bush that he was currently sitting in. Then he proceeded to make his way out by squat walking through the bushes that rested up next to the outside wall of the mansion.

Slowly but surely the green haired assassin was making his way off of the property, no bodies have been found yet, so that was good for him. Though he was making slow progress he seemed to be running into every single enemy that there was, and his arm was still a bit twitchy and tingly due to the taser that hit it in his fight with the guard. Folding his knife he placed it back into his pocket, though he still gripped his flute tightly in his other hand. The veins around his eyes decided to pulse again, but in a more painful manner, which caused the boy's face to contort in pain. It was useful having this magic, but really, as he found as he continued to learn how to use the cursed flute, that it wasn't really worth it. It cause to much pain to the caster, and had way to many weaknesses, and as much as Lucius wants to stop using this magic, he can't. Forced, cursed even, to play this dreaded flute until he died, which was a fate that he wasn't looking forward to. Continuing his way through the garden area, a guard was standing in a lit gazebo, letting out a large yawn as he turned the other direction. Bringing the flute up to his soft and lightly colored lips, he blew, summoning a sword from his own shadow. Letting out a sigh after finishing the short song, the sword did the work for Lucius, hovering over and impaling the man. The assassin rubbed his head as he snuck over to the guard who was busy fight the wielderless sword. He came up behind him, and got the man in a choke hold.
Snap, and the man was dead, the green haired boy let out a large yawn as he dragged the man off of the gazebo. Dropping him, Lucius pulled some loose skirting boards off the bottom of the gazebo. He then shoved the passes guard underneath the pavilion, and leaned the wooden boards back up again the bottom. The sword retreated back into the young man's shadow, and he continued on.

Sneaking through the garden, ducking behind bushes, he needed to get out of here before he got into some major trouble. He has already been there longer then he planned, and he was getting tired of using his magic. Literally, he was just getting worn out, this happened when he used his magic to long. Like I have already said before, this magic isn't really worth all the torture that it gives him, but really they don't have a choice. Descended from a family that has always served the god, Inanis, though Lucius is the first to actually be personally be trained and raised by him. Though to be honest, you would rather not want to be, he is very harsh in his training and punishments, and is not a good parental figure to have. And even though he acted as a parent to the green haired mage, he wasn't ever able to take physical form on earth, most he could do was possess somebody. Even then not for long, due to people not being able to handle the power that the god of darkness has. Lucius even had a hard time containing his power when his mentor possessed him on occasions. So due to him not being able to actually act like a father, not that the evil god would, but this made it so the young man had to grow up fast. Getting his thoughts interrupted by the incoming patrol, great, now he needed to deal with three people at once. Sneaking up behind on of them, he hopped up, grabbing him and holding him in a choke hold before snapping his neck. The other two noticed and got their tasers ready, which was something Lucius didn't want to deal with again, his arm just stopped tingling from his last shock. Extending his switchblade into a scythe he engaged the two in combat. Swinging it in one large stroke, hoping to at least it one of them, but to no avail. One ran behind the assassin and attempted to hit him in the back with the defensive weapon, though the green haired mage manage to plant his weapon into the ground, and use it as a post to let himself spin and kick the guard. Which actually hit this time, this spin attack made the guard fall over, making just enough time for Lucius to continue and attack the other guard. Hoping to actually finish this guy off, before the other one fully recovered from the shock that the assassin's kick gave him. Transforming the scythe back into a knife, and started to lunge and swing at the guard with ineradicable speed. He got over seven cuts and stabs on them, the last one being next to the heart. The guard collapsed, suffering now because of all of the deep cuts, especially the one that just barely grazed their heart.
Seeing this opponent was no longer a thread he turned to see the other one lunging at him, in this moment he just barely manged to dodge. Grabbing the wrist of his attacker, the dark mage flipped them over onto their back, and continued by sitting on their stomach. Grinning, finally this fight was over, slitting his throat, the man started to drown in his own blood. By this time the other one with the stab wound next to the heart was already dead. Now to dispose of the bodies before anybody came by to see what had happened. Getting up he grabbed the body that he had just killed, and dragged them by their ankles, shoving them in some thick bushes. Doing the same with the other two bodies, he moved along, he would've almost been out, if it wasn't for even more people. Jeez how much more people did they have working here?

Another guard was posted silently, yawning, probably had been up for a while. He wasn't going to waste any more time with these idiots, simply disposing him by throwing his switch blade at his forehead like a throwing knife. With no time to react, the body fell to the ground, landing rather silently in the grass. Walking over he picked up the body and looked around, where o where would he put this damn corpse. He surveyed his surroundings, searching for a place to hide this body for the time being. There, a shed, most likely a place to keep all of the garden supplies, I mean they had to have some place to put it. And they definitely had to have some sort of supplies, that was obvious, for how stupidly large the garden was. Silently making his way over, placing himself in front of the door, he dropped the body. Kneeling down he quickly picked the padlock, once it clicked open he pushed open the door. Grabbing the body by the shirt collar, he tossed it in, then he closed the door and placed the lock back onto the door. Taking a deep breath, the young man made his way back over to the back part of the gate. Then he made a encounter, with another, damn, patrol. Lucius was getting really irritated, but he had to keep his aura under wraps, otherwise he might not get out unnoticed. As much as it seemed he has gone noticed, he hasn't, the green haired boy had just been disposing of the people so they don't notice him. Also, killing all of these people was rather enjoyable, helping the world out by removing all of the stupid people. Yes, that is a very hard thing to do, due to there being a lot of stupid people on this earth. But he was trying, trying his hardest. Letting out a quiet sigh, he brought his knife and he came out, lunging at one of the guards. Stabbing his knife, right into the heart of that said guard, of course causing instant death for them. Quickly yanking out the knife and turning it into it's true form, swinging it towards the other two. The two other guards, both woman, didn't have enough time to react. And without another moment passing, both of their heads fell to the grass, there necks down soon followed. Huffing he grabbed their heads and tossed it in bushes surrounding a tree, then, just to make himself laugh, but all of the bodies in thick branches in the tree. Not easy to notice, but would be quite the shock to whoever would find them.

This should be the last patrol, then he was out of here, but he had a plan this time. A plan to actually enjoy himself, at least a little, before heading back to his client and giving him the artifact. He waltz right up to them, a smile on his pale face "Hello, how are you?" he said, extending his arm out, putting the end of a barrel to one of their foreheads. "Now tie you friend up with these rope, or I shoot, and I guarantee you" he paused, his bright green blue eyes glaring at the other two, his voice dropping a few octaves. Though his, innocent looking smile, was still plastered on his snow colored face. After what felt like minutes to the guards, but was only a good thirty seconds, he finished what he was saying. "I can kill you all in three seconds flat" though it didn't sound believable, the way he said it made it seem like he could, which, was true. The one guard grabbed the rope and tied up their coworker, before they could do anything else, he shot the guard that he had at gunpoint. Though it didn't make to much noise, do to a silencer being on the end of it. The green haired mage then shot the other guard of which was not tied up "Well that's that" Lucius said as he tucked the gun into the back of his pants, before the tied up guard could scream, the green haired teen shoved some cloth in their mouth. Also tightening the ropes, so it was more painful for the poor guard. Giggling he grabbed the two bodies and tossed them into a thick leaved tree, walking back over the the young female guard, he pulled out his knife from his pocket. Flicking it open the dark mage squatted in front of the young woman who was sitting, he eyes wide with shock and fear. He grazed his knife across her cheek, his innocent smile forming into a psychotic grin. Pulling this silver blade away from her face, he licked the blood off "Delicious" he said, snickering slightly. The girl whimpered, trying to hide her fear and pain, though was failing miserably. Tears streamed down her face, and she let out a muffled yelp as the blade of the knife was inserted harshly into her stomach. Doing this a repetitive amount of times, the blood splattering and pouring out. Each stab making a disturbing squishing sound of the blood, all of it either gushing down her shirt or splattering onto his own shirt. Letting the girl fall to her side and cry, trying to curl up and cover her stomach. As much as she wanted to scream she couldn't, or at least not be heard, they where in the way back of the property. She also had some type of cloth in her mouth, muffing almost everything she tried to say and or project through her vocal chords. Closing her eyes tight, she whimpered as he continued to torture her through stabbings and occasionally dragging the knife when he did stab.
Though finally out of her misery, death cause by, bleeding to death. The elder teen giggled giddily, he rather enjoyed that. Yes it was a very stereotypical type of torture, but still just as enjoyable. Picking up the limp and petite body of the passed guard, setting her gently in the tree with the rest of her trio. Letting out a satisfied sigh, he quick checked if he had everything. Lex Ruptor? Check. Hanc Maledictionem? Check. And lastly, client's artifact? Check. Now after checking if he had all of his belongings, he pulled himself over the wall that was around the property, and was also a bit taller then himself. Hopping down on the other side, he landed with a squat. Standing up straight, his long green hair that was in a high ponytail, was now in a more normal loose one. Walking down the dark back streets of the Capital, his eyes pulse again, though he had been ignoring it this whole time and almost forgot about the pain. This one was more intense, showing him that he had been using his magic for to long. Though he tried to continue and ignore it, for he had to give this treasure to his client.
Arriving at the drop zone, he looked around with his whiteless eyes "Oh thank the heavens your finally here" said the man. He was eager, and the exchange was quick, which was good for Lucius, he was eager to leave too. After receiving his said amount of jewels he left, he went onto a train and headed back to the port city. Where Black Rose was located, and where his home was.
