Sitting casually on top of the roof, Reign pondered his next move.


    Cyril had sent him a map and detailed blueprint of the mansion.


    So now, his priority was disabling the rm system and CCTV cameras.


    With them out ofmission, he''d have more time toplete his job beforew enforcement intervened.


    Now came the hardest part of the mission. While killing everyone here was rtively straightforward and easy, the real challenge was the aftermath.


    Located in Summit City''s area of the wealthy, Reign faced a tactical dilemma.


    The mansion''s location meant that if the rm rang,w enforcement backup would arrive fast—a scenario that spelled trouble for Reign.


    He was confident in his ability to fend off any threats, but causing chaos would disrupt his other ns in the city.


    If authorities and the Hunter Association caught wind of an Upper Demon, reinforcements from neighboring cities wouldplicate matters.


    Itwould be like a promation of his existence to the world, weingthe arrival of more powerful hunters bent on killing him.


    Moreover, Reign grappled with the uncertainty of demon-human politics. He pondered the possibility of a powerful demon arriving to restore bnce by eliminating him for disrupting the status quo.


    He knew he had to proceed cautiously, avoiding unnecessary attention to achieve his goals smoothly.


    ''I need to hold back'' he mused silently.


    The ideal oue would be to orchestrate the scene in a manner that suggested the work of a skilled assassin rather than a bloodthirsty demon.


    For that n to seed, the operation had to be executed with precision—clean and silent.


    ''Let see ,''


    Studying the map, hisgaze zeroed in on the CCTV Control Room location in the mansion''s basement floor.


    He also spotted several red dots on the blueprint, indicating the positions of the CCTV cameras.


    His eyes narrowed as he noticed additional markings denoting motion sensors along the venttion system.


    Thankfully, Cyril had foreseen this obstacle and provided him with a device capable of temporarily disabling them.


    Of course, the device had its limitations. It could only block the motion detectors for a mere two seconds.


    However, Reign''s inhumanespeed and agility allowed him to make the most of this brief window of opportunity.


    And that wasn''t the only variable that could help him.


    Reign''s Bone Control Ability also yed an important role. His usual size was too big, but he could shrink his body by half, boosting his stealth to new levels.


    As he use his Bone Control Ability, a subtle transformation took ce. He began to shrink, each bone in his bodypressing. His once broad shoulders narrowed, his towering height diminishing by half.


    His fingers and toes morphed into slender, agile appendages, perfect for gripping onto the uneven surfaces of the ductwork.


    He stopped wearing his mask for now because constantly changing the shape of his bones made it too much of a hassle to keep it on .


    With some adjustments, he could blend seamlessly into his surroundings, streamlining the infiltration process.


    ''This ability surees in handy,''he chuckled to himself, pleased with his reduced size.


    He was confident that he''d find many uses for this ability in the future. If he could shrink by half, it was only logical to assume that he could also growrger when needed.


    Afterpleting his preparations, he crawled toward the window to the attic, where ess to the venttion system was located.


    He was grateful for his decision to upgrade his Night Crawl ability, ensuring that even when he moved quickly, he made minimal noise.


    At times, he encountered dead ends in the venttion system,pelling him to carefully exit the vents and move along the surface of the ceiling.


    With the CCTV cameras constantly monitoring the area, every movement had to be silent until he reach another venttion system entrance .


    From the venttion system, he made his way towards the dumbwaiter.


    This movable frame in a shaft was designed to transport food between floors with ease.


    He took advantage of the moment while everyone was still upied with their meals, knowing that no food deliveries were likely to interrupt his movements.


    After reaching the first floor kitchen, he silently crawled towards another dumbwaiter-like structure.


    However, this one served a different purpose—it transported trash to the garage , which was also connected to the basement.


    Finally, after crawling for a 20 minutes, Reign reached a vantage point above the garage.


    Peering through a gap in the ceiling, he surveyed the area below, plotting his next move.


    He spotted five armed individuals stationed near the room at the end of the row of cars.


    They were armed with rifles, likely stationed there to protect the room housing the CCTV and rm panel.


    Reign raised his hands and began to craft a new type of projectile from his bones. The result was a small, and very thin pointed stick, measuring only four inches in length.


    ''w Bullet,''


    Reign''s precise aim sent the projectile hurtling towards the CCTV camera, shattering it with a resounding crash.


    The noise grabbed the guards'' attention, but before they could discern the source, they copsed to the ground, their throats punctured by the swift and deadly strikes of an unseen attacker.


    SWOOOOOSH!


    Without hesitation, Reign sprang into action, dashing towards the control room before the guards inside could react.


    With a turn of his hand, he shattered the doorknob and quickly dispatched the four guards who was stunned to see him, shing their throats in one fluid motion.


    Blood sttered everywhere , and just like that , the ce was now under his totalcontrol.


    ''That was too easy,'' hethought to himself, a sense of confidence surging within him.


    It was the first time he had put his evolved powers to practical use, and he couldn''t shake the feeling that he had only tapped into a fraction of his total potential.


    ''I need to stay focused on the mission,'' Reign reminded himself, shaking off any distractions.


    He understood that even the strongest could fall if they let their guard down. That''s why he made sure to always stay cautious and alert.


    Reign scanned the room, his eyes seeking out a USB socket. He needed to find a ce to insert the drives-stickCyril had prepared ahead of time.


    ''She really thought this through,'' Reign pondered, considering the implications of Cyril''s meticulous nning.


    The only exnation he could think of was that she had contemted executing the mission herself at some point.


    And he was correct. Cyril hadconsidered taking on this mission as a worst-case scenario n.


    As a divergent herself, she possessed a powerful body, albeit requiring more effort and tools to replicate his effectiveness.


    ''Impressive,'' Reign murmured quietly to himself. He held a deep respect for intelligent individuals who could leverage their intellect like this.


    After a thorough search, Reign finally located the USB socket.


    He quickly inserted the drive stick, causing all the CCTV cameras to blink momentarily. Momentster, he saw that all the images had frozen, indicating that the cameras were now paused.


    But he wasn''t finished yet.


    He retrieved several small devices and strategically ced them around the control room.


    These devices were weak time bombs, designed to destroy all the data in the room. With them in ce, he knew that any trace of his presence would be obliterated after the mission wasplete.
