Episode 9

"Compensation of Assassination" is the 9th episode of the "Sekai Saikou no Ansatsusha, Isekai Kizoku ni Tensei Suru" Anime adaptation.

Short Summary
Lugh receives a request for assassination. He takes Tarte with him and goes to a commercial city, Pisaal. He decides to gather information beforehand to justify whether the target needs to be assassinated. Once there, Lugh saw the suffering of the people that was caused by his target. It's a tragic sight as a young child is forced to sell drugs while her mother was emaciated and was also addicted to it. Thus, Lugh formulates an assassination plan based on the information that Maha had collected. He was successful in killing for the first time in this life, though he soon felt the weight of his action and became emotional after witnessing the wife of the target grieving.

Summary
Lugh's first target as a fully trained assassin is Count Azba Venkaur, an aristocrat who has been selling military secrets to neighboring kingdoms in exchange for vizein, a drug that he distributes throughout the kingdom. Using Maha's information network, Lugh decides to investigate the count by himself and determine whether or not the target truly deserves assassination. Lugh and Tarte visit Piseaal, the second-largest merchant town in the kingdom, and take down a criminal group selling vizein, but not before seeing the effects of the drug on a poor girl's mother. Sometime later, Lugh and Maha travel to the count's mansion in the Venkaur region under the pretense of selling Orna's products, which proves to be a success for Orna. As night falls, Lugh silently assassinates Count Venkaur with his newest weapon, a sniper rifle, but takes the time to watch the grieving wife's reaction. While Lugh does not regret taking the count's life, he promises never to forget this particular mission, as it was the first assassination he performed as a free man rather than as an unfeeling tool.
