My first task in pursuing a divorce was to cancel the assassination contract and erase any evidence. After all, I needed to be alive to get divorced.
The guild leader didn’t keep a record book.
He understood that if the commission was exposed, he’d be in grave danger due to the unethical and brutal nature of murder for money.
‘So, erasing his memory would perfectly destroy all evidence.’
I pretended to fiddle with my hand, nudging the decoration on my ring, popping its lid open.
It contained a colorless, odorless substance causing a three-day memory loss, vaporizing into the air.
It was an item I had won at an auction I was taken to by my aunt after my debutante ball. She believed I should experience the underworld culture.
I had already ingested the antidote, so the airborne chemical wouldn’t affect me.
‘Good thing I kept it.’
As I wickedly smiled, dreaming of a perfect crime, a disheveled man who looked like he hadn’t bathed in days entered, sighing heavily.
I was sure he was the guild leader. I had seen him through a blurry haze on the night of my drunkenness.
I smiled secretly.
The moment he breathed in, the vaporized poison would actively stimulate his left hippocampus.
“What’s the urgency, Lady? I’m swamped.”
The rough-looking guild leader, clad in tattered clothes, plopped down on the worn-out sofa, eliciting a hissing sound.
I elegantly presented the teacup.
“Have some tea first, catch your breath. You seem flustered by my sudden visit.”
With impatience, the guild leader downed the cold tea without hesitation, eager to hear my reason for the visit.
“Cough.”
After gulping down the tea, he roughly wiped his glistening lips.
“So, what brings you here?”
“Please cancel the request.”
I calmly put down my teacup.
The guild leader scowled and clicked his tongue, regretting accepting my drunken request.
Muttering to himself, his eyes narrowed, ready to forcefully throw me out if necessary.
“Look, Lady. We rely on these jobs for a living.”
I anticipated this response, looking down pitifully.
‘Though I regret wasting money due to my ex-husband’s control over our finances.’
Raising my gaze, I smiled lightly.
“You don’t have to refund the deposit.”
His eyes widened greedily, his lips curling slyly.
“Well, that changes things.”
“Will you cancel it?”
“Of course, Lady. As you wish.”
He pressed a button under the desk and called, “Come in.”
Bang!
The door swung open, and a buzz-cut boy entered.
Surprised by his quick response, I watched as the guild leader stepped out to converse with the boy.
After a lengthy discussion, just as I was growing impatient, the guild leader peeked through the door, scratching his head awkwardly.
“What’s wrong?”
“Oh… What to do, Lady?”
He revealed his yellowed teeth, smiling sheepishly.
“They’ve already been sent.”
What?! I stood up abruptly, causing the teacup to spill, the tea soaking the table and dripping onto the floor.
‘Sent’ was a euphemism used by the assassination guild.
‘Damn…’
It meant they had already gone to escort someone to the afterlife.
Razbel Road, No. 3.
A woman, groaning, carried a gift box, moving through the square towards Razbel’s popular cafe street. She appeared to be in her early to mid-twenties.
With fine, soft, straight hair loosely tied up and clear, sparkling brown eyes, I had found her. ‘Lirien Mifidian.’
I hid in the alley, smiling triumphantly. The guild leader had informed me of Lirien’s appearance and location.
‘Lady Lirien Mifidian of the Mifidian Earl family, the subject of your inquiry, has silver hair and puppy-like brown eyes. Will you be able to recognize her?’
Absolutely. I would have liked to answer him right then.
As soon as I got the information from the guild leader, I borrowed a horse and rushed here. I was so tense that I didn’t even realize how suffocating the mask felt.
‘Now I just need to find the guild member.’
That’s when it happened.
As I loosened my grip on the reins, absorbed in my thoughts, the horse bolted out of the alley.
‘Oh no…!’
Worse, it was heading straight for Lirien.
“Ah!”
Lirien, approaching the alley, was startled and dropped her box.
As the crowd scattered and the horse reared up on its hind legs towards her, I swiftly scooped Lirien into my arms and into the alley, while the box she was carrying fell near the alley entrance.
The agitated horse reared up again, kicking out.
Outside the alley, someone cursed about a loose horse, and soon the city guards came and took the horse away, calming the commotion.
As the sound of hooves faded, I absentmindedly looked up and saw a flash of light on the roof.
“……!”
An assassin was peering down, licking a dagger ominously.
‘There.’
I pulled out the contract termination document, bearing the guild leader’s scribbled signature, from my embrace.
The lurking assassin hesitated, then sheathed the dagger and disappeared.

“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
