In the shadows, Jino rotated his arm, his face twisted into a grim smile like a malicious demon:
"The 22nd one, quite a number, huh? Last year, I didn't kill as many exemplar-level targets as I did tonight. It's a shame you're much weaker than your boss..."
Jino glanced at the freshly slain Druid clutched in his hand.
Although he was also a level 20 professional, Jino took less than half a minute from initiating to executing.

A Secret Guard dressed in night attire stepped out.
