It was a shocking conclusion, but he didn't see any other truth. This was clearly a professional assassin targeting him instead of a thug, that was for sure. Which certainly meant that there was a commission or hit out on him as professional assassins only worked for money.
'How long has it even been since I got here?' Rui frowned. 'Why would there be a hit out on me so quick?'
He wasn't sure. However, he had a few guesses.
'Maybe someone saw me kill that man.' Rui mused.
After all, the man did have some wealth, maybe Rui pissed off someone who wanted to teach him a lesson. Rui hadn't used his Martial Heart since it was a waste to use it against a normal human.
This meant that a Martial Squire would be able to perceive what happened. Perhaps that information wound up in the arms of some third party that decided they wanted to get rid of him.
