[Killer's Mark] is another effect that was bestowed to all the Assassins of the [Eternal Shadow Guild], similar to the [Soul Whisper].
Although [Killer's Mark] is attached to the body of the cultivator who kills their assassins, Ethan was carrying that [Killer's Mark] for so long that his soul carried the slight traces of it.
Thus, when Ethan revived, these slight traces were transferred back to his body because only when this [Killer's Mark] was on the cultivator's body could the other high-ranked assassins sense it.
'The [Killer's Mark]… it has become extremely thin?'
Ethan's eyes lit up when he came to this conclusion as he guessed, 'It must be because of my death.'
'Phew… dying will remove the [Killer's Mark].'
When Ethan thought of this, he heaved a sigh of relief as it was the main reason he was frustrated and worried.
'With just one death, it has already become so thin, and with another death, there won't be any traces of the [Killer's Mark] on my body.'
