It materialized so abruptly that Aiden blinked in surprise.
"A quest…?" he muttered.
This was the first time it had happened since he was reincarnated in this world.
Slowly, he focused his eyes on the message.

Aiden stared at the screen in silence.
The words lingered in front of him, glowing faintly in the dimming light of sunset.
Kill all the townspeople.
There were easily over a thousand people living here.
Men.
Women.
Children.
For a brief moment, Aiden didn't move. The wind blew across the rooftop, carrying the distant crackling of fire from the Dustwind clan compound behind him.
His eyes slowly swept across the town.
Every house had its doors shut. Every window was closed, and they were hiding. Also, afraid.
They knew something terrible had happened.
