As always, King Hassan was either being mobbed or on his way to being mobbed.

Although, in truth, as long as he moved stealthily in earnest, he could easily cut down his opponents before they even realized what was happening.

This was actually related to King Hassan's faith.

Originally, the so-called Assassins were based in Persia, but in reality, when King Hassan went to Cairo, Egypt, he received religious training from the Ismaili missionary organization and recognized Mustansir, the caliph of the Fatimid Dynasty, as the sect's imam.

He later returned to Persia as a missionary of the Fatimid Dynasty, preaching openly and developing followers.

Then, if this was a "normal" worldview, the Assassins founded by King Hassan were a sect dedicated entirely to brainwashing people and assassinating for the sake of assassination.

It was more or less about treating someone, such as a "benefactor," as a chosen one, after which everyone in the Assassins had to obey that chosen one's commands and impose "divine punishment" on anyone who defied them.

That was how the Assassins were described in Lin Yun's world.

However, in this world, who knew whether it had something to do with a certain mushroom, or perhaps with Jin Yong?

In any case, the doctrines of the Assassins in this world leaned more toward Zoroastrianism.

It should be noted that this Zoroastrianism was not, in the truest sense, a sect that simply worshipped fire.

Strictly speaking, it was Zoroastrianism, which had been the state religion of Persia at the time.

Therefore, King Hassan had a reason to incorporate part of Zoroastrianism's doctrines into his own Assassins.

And that was where the problem lay.

There was no need to mention the Zoroastrian doctrine of worshipping a single god and so on.

The important part came later.
