Heading out the village, it wouldnt take him entirely too long to get to where he was going. He was dressed in his very best garments. Disguised as a citizen without any jutsu training or anything. A knapsack and his donkey at his side... he could almost be mistaken as a Merchant. Either way, Souji's snakes would come along as always. one wrapped around his neck like some sort of odd jewelry. Taking this mission, he knew that with how low his family was getting on funds he would have to pick up the slack more and more. He had to opt into taking more solo missions for better rewards just to get by. It was a stressful life to live. He didnt let people know his personal struggle but it was something he had to do living day by day like he often found himself doing. Now with Oyochi going to school, and him being the sole provider for his parents and his siblings... it weighed heavily on his heart and mind.
This task was simple, but it was S Rank because of the fact that this guy didnt like to ride alone. He had a number of very tough individuals that he had with him at all times. How did Souji know this? Souji knew the guy. He dealt to him many of the weapons he was using. He broke the number one rule. Use the weapons against Iwa citizens. It was not going to end up like this, and Souji hopped on this quickly. So the money he got for dealing the weapons would pile on with the money he would get for taking this guy down. Double pay. All day.
Continuing on his way out, he'd meet the men outside the village walls, in a small camp. The sack had weapons for the man. Souji was going to make another 'deal' with him. So, with how he was going about this... he could get close to him with the minimal amount of people finding out and he'd be able to slip out with little thought as to what happened or not.
They made it too easy, he was allowed to walk into the camp... even get in the room with the guy with one man guarding him. One of the weaker fellows at that. Aye... Souji's plan was coming quickly into play and he was going to be able to take him out quickly. It didnt take much... a few lies about the Guardians in the village and the ANBU potentially not coming after him. He'd get his sum of the money on the spot. He was... 'trustworthy' but little did they know it was not what they all had seemed. Souji prepped the weapons with a special poison that entered through the skin and entered into the blood stream to slowly stop numb the senses and slow the reaction speed. The only person that touched the weapon was... Taki. The man of interest.
Great, so now was his chance... it would take a few minutes. Their shadows seemed to whisk from under them and immediately a shadow clone would appear behind the guard and slit the man's neck before muffling his mouth with a cloth so shunt his screaming. Souji'd take care of Taki with a quick flash he'd be on him with his hand placed firmly on his forehead. He'd channel all the malicious energy into him cutting his chakra and sucking everything from him dry... locking it into the seal and the Malevolence of it all... was that Souji didnt blink through this entire ordeal.
Leaving quietly, Souji'd reappear at the head of Titan's keep tapping his headset, "Hazuki Taki is dead.", holding the scroll from shich he had sealed the man's body away he'd head back into his home for his reward.
