As title say, will an assassin with dark venom upgrade and popping the egg have killing blow on the breath weapon?

I think empire witch hunters using ruby ring of ruin have killing blow on their attacks, which could a similar comparisation

No.
BRB FAQ:
Q: Do Breath Weapon hits benefit from any other special rules,
equipment or magic items of the model that inflicts the hits? (p67)
A: No.


Note that Witch Hunter's case is specific, not similar:
Empire AB Official Update Version 1.2, p2:
Q: If a Witch Hunter is equipped with a magic item such as the Ring of Volans or the Ruby Ring of Ruin, will any bound spell effects/magic missiles retain the Killing Blow special rule against the target of the Witch Hunter’s Accusation rule? (p37)
A: Yes.

The difference comes from the wording in WH rules.
