Assassin's Creed Shadows: All Betrayer Locations & Rewards
Assassin's Creed Shadows allows you to complete missions as either Yasuke or Naoe throughout your journey. One mission you'll come across is "The Betrayers" quest, where you must hunt and defeat all seven traitors for Hori Hidemasa in honor of Lord Nobunaga.
Hidemasa's master has died, and he now seeks vengeance against those involved in Oda Nobunaga's death. It is up to you to find all seven and bring justice to Hidemasa's fallen master. Luckily, considering AC Shadows is a dual protagonist game, you can utilize both characters to complete this quest.
Every Betrayer's Location In AC Shadows
Rewards Given For Each Betrayer You Defeat
You can initiate this quest by having Yasuke speak with Hori Hidemasa. He will be located in Omi, just north of the Mouth of Seta Jizo Statue. After speaking with him, go to your objectives page and you should see the Betrayers board. You will have a total of seven targets to eliminate.

Assassin's Creed Shadows: All Iron Hand Guild Locations & Rewards
There are five Iron Hand Guild targets in Assassin's Creed Shadows, but this target board isn't quite like the others - will you spare the merchants?
Two will give a clue to their location, one will have a marker on AC Shadows' map, and the final four will be revealed as the quest progresses. Even though you began this quest with Yasuke, you can choose to switch to Naoe to utilize her skills for the kills. However, you must switch back to Yasuke when you complete the mission and go to hand in the quest to Hidemasa.

Once all seven of the Betrayers are taken care of, you must return to Omi and speak with Hori Hidemasa. If you are still playing as Naoe, you will notice the interaction button will tell you to speak to Hidemasa as Yasuke. After you change characters and interact with him, Yasuke will tell Hori Hidemasa that his late master's soul, Lord Nobunaga's soul, can rest easier now that his traitors have earned their final rewards.
You will notice that you have two options to respond to Hidemasa with. You can choose either, "I am the grateful one," or, "meeting you was my reward." If you choose the second option, this will give you the chance to romance him. Once your interaction with Hidemasa is complete, you will receive your final reward for completing this Assassin's Creed Shadows quest: 5,000 XP, Hori Hidemasa's Epic Helmet, and Gold Crafting Material.
