Chapter 621: Chapter 460 Assassination_2 Chapter 621: Chapter 460 Assassination_2 “……………..”
Hearing the young girls’ discussion, the Black Swan’s face fell. Luckily, General Kriolleiv wasn’t here, or he might have been angered to his death.
Nevertheless, Black Swan learned another piece from the girls’ conversation.
The Second Legion was about to arrive, and the Congress was very dissatisfied with General Kriolleiv. They might take away his command!
They should know that she herself didn’t know this information, but how did the enemy know?
Moreover, it seed that for the girls attending the banquet, this was not a piece of specially important information that needed keeping secret……
Black Swan originally planned to set fire to the warehouse, causing chaos throughout the fortress, but…
“Speaking of which, everyone is here attending the banquet, is security alright?”
“No problem, the soldiers are guarding, I have also summoned several Dust Golems as guards, there will be no problems.”
“……………..”
After hearing this, Black Swan decisively dismissed her plan. She wouldn’t worry about the soldiers, but she had seen those Dust Golems on the battlefield. They had no weaknesses at all, and the only way was to smash them to pieces, which was, clearly, too much to ask from an assassin like herself.
However, just then, a piece of news caught Black Swan’s attention.
“By the way, where’s Lord Duanmu?”
“He’s gone to rest in his room.”
“So early?”
“He has other recreational activities……”
While speaking, the girls giggled. Hearing this, Black Swan’s eyes flashed. As a top assassin, she understood the girls’ implication. In other words, there were no guards around Duanmu Huai now – it was the perfect ti to make her move!
As for the location of Duanmu Huai, maybe this is an issue for rookies, but not for a seasoned assassin. After all, a qualified commander should follow certain rules, even when they rest. Otherwise, if the enemy starts a war and you are sleeping in a corner, and you wake up only after you are captured by the enemy…… isn’t it too late?
So, Black Swan quickly reached the headquarters located in the center of the fortress. According to her experience, the commander’s room should be nearby. And indeed, Black Swan did not guess wrong.
“Ugh… ah… er…!!”
As Black Swan silently approached a window from the side of the wall, she heard animal-like grunting sounds from inside the room. Upon hearing these sounds, Black Swan’s face slightly changed. She reached out and quietly held the short blade at her waist, and silently approached the window, peering inside.
Next, Black Swan saw a brawny, tall man standing there, holding a petite purple-haired girl in his hands. The girl’s mouth was wide open, and she was making so indistinct howling noises. The next mont….
“Ah… ah, ah!!”
The purple-haired girl suddenly scread, and her body tensely stiffened, her eyes rolled back, and drool slipped from the corner of her mouth. Her previous smooth and delicate stomach began to swell like a balloon. The next mont, she lied down like a puppet whose strings had been cut, and a sticky liquid that gave off an unusual sll sprayed out, forming a small puddle on the ground….
“…………”
Watching this scene, Black Swan steadied her emotions, held the blade sared with poison, and slowly approached the window. However, as she reached the window, suddenly, a voice sounded.
“Hehe, it’s not good to peep at such a ti, you know?”
“!?”
Hearing the voice coming from behind her, Black Swan’s heart sank. She quickly drew out her poisoned blade and swung it back. But the deadly poisoned blade missed. Then she felt soone push her from behind and directly into the room. At the sa ti, the arm she had swung back was caught by soone with a twist and turned dislocated. It was imdiately snapped back, pointed right at her neck.
“Caught a mouse, huh.”
“Thanks for your hard work, Ling’Nu.”
Duanmu Huai nodded at Ling’Nu behind the Black Swan, then stared at the Black Swan, who in return, looked back at Duanmu Huai with an unwavering face.
“So you’re the assassin sent by Kriolleiv to kill ?”
“………..”
“Nevermind, whether you want to talk or not doesn’t matter, I don’t plan to kill you either. Please pass a ssage to General Kriolleiv for .”
Duanmu Huai was nonchalant about his current appearance, first, he carried Kana, who had lost consciousness, onto the bed and covered her with a blanket, then turned to Black Swan.
“Herman’s change is necessary, and his strength is needed. Perhaps running away is a simple thing for him. But what I wish for is him to face everything directly, and not simply be a deserter on the battlefield. Facing reality may be cruel, but it’s his task. If he wishes to fight for Herman’s tomorrow, then we hope he will stand with us… Alright, pass these words to General Kriolleiv. Also, tell him, this is ultimately an internal problem within Herman. If he, as the most prestigious general of Herman, doesn’t want to face and change this country, that is his choice. The Tribunal will stop concerning themselves with these troubleso matters.”
After saying this, Duanmu Huai gestured, and Ling’Nu slightly exerted force. Along with a “crack” sound, Black Swan’s dislocated arm was connected back. She moved her arm and looked at Duanmu Huai.
“Are you sure I will pass your ssage? General Kriolleiv isn’t an easy man to convince.”
“Whether I say it or not is my business, whether you pass it or not is your business, and whether he hears it or not is his business.”
Duanmu Huai waved his hand.
“You can go now.”
“………..”
After listening to Duanmu Huai, Black Swan stared at him carefully for a while, then she left without a word by jumping out of the window.
“Phew…what a nuisance.”
Watching her leave, Duanmu Huai sighs and at the sa mont, Ling’Nu ca closer giggling.
“So, how was Ling’Nu’s performance?”
“Of course.”
Hearing Ling’Nu’s words, Duanmu Huai laughed before extending his hand to hold Ling’Nu in his arms.
“I’ll give you a reward too.”
He said.
