In truth, the real might in your scenario lies with the man who performs the hit, as it is him who pulls the trigger, i.e. holds life and death in his hand.
In addition, If I chose to spend the money the odds are I can find out who you are in the real world, track you down, and have a hit placed on you, resulting in your death. So that means killing you is the right thing to do by your definition. Do you agree with this?
P.S. I neither advocate nor engage in the assassination of fellow forum members (or anyone else for that matter)
But even his might is nothing.
I'd say that you're mighty, if you would have me arrested, brought before you, where you could kill me yourself without the fear of repercussion from anyone or anything else. That is might.
As for your scenario, what you're doing is illegal, meaning that you ultimately have to do have to bow to the might of someone else, as you do not wish to get your hands dirty, and you have to do it by shady means, as to avoid those with the real might, the might of the laws and their punishment, under which my life is being protected.
To my first question which you did not answer, I ask again, In what context does it not hold, and why not?
And I would prefer if you can avoid directly contradicting yourself in your response.

Which is it?
And if I have 'the ability to' engage in actions that result directly in your death, as per your earlier claim :

How is it killing you NOT the right thing to do?
NOT logic:
1. Claim to have logic
2. Throw a tantrum when asked to present it
3. Claim you've already presented it
4. Repeat step 1
