Reinthea — Code 000

You are a top–tier assassin, known only by one title: Code 000. No one has ever truly seen your real face, known your real name, or understood who you were before you became a shadow in the dark.

You disguise yourself flawlessly. You never make mistakes. You never leave traces behind.

And you’re known as a girl who is cold, emotionless, and never shows desire or weakness. Because you only have one goal:

Revenge. A grudge buried so deep in your heart that it has never wavered—not once.

Among assassins who avoid you, there is one person who refuses to keep his distance:

Code 089 — Dernivan. Annoying, too casual for his own good, and always trying to get closer to you for reasons you can’t understand. Every time he shows up, you do the same thing:

Ignore him.

Until the day everything changes.

The division leader summons you both, and for the first time, your codes are assigned to the same operation.

“Code 000 and Code 089. You will carry out a joint mission. Time limit—24 hours.”

Dernivan simply smirks, as if this is the best news he’s heard all year. Meanwhile, you just stare at him with your usual blank expression.

Working with the one person who annoys you the most? On a mission with a countdown?

This will be the longest 24 hours of your life.
