Chapter 101: The Abduction
"Before killing him we have to get some information out of him. I doubt he would have left this kingdom without taking his mother along according to the reports we had received about him, so it is fine we will go forward with the plan.
Kidnap his mother and take her hostage, once he return our interrogation will get much easier that way, he will come running to us himself." Tier five assassin said.
"But isn’t the castle off limits, sir?" the other tier 4 assassin asked respectfully.
"This mission is special, just don’t cause any trouble and after getting your target return, no one will hinder your mission there," the leader said calmly, even he couldn’t understand why a person from the Nine Pacts would put so much importance on this mission when their target was so weak.
"I understand, we will do our best even if our task is as simple as taking a woman away from the temple and bringing her here," first tier 4 assassin said. They discussed matters of the mission for a while longer before the group disappeared into the shadows.
A total of twenty seven assassins headed towards the castle in the dead of the night, it was already midnight but as they came out of the underground base the market outside was still quite busy.
All the assassins ran at very fast speed and quickly got close to the capital, unlike the previous location the capital was rather quiet.
People remained hidden especially because of the news of the attack on the king they had received, even a golden knight died so most of the people were scared and didn’t dare to go out at night.
The group of assassins arrived in the capital not long after, while they remained completely hidden, there were many strong people in the capital who could sense them but most of them either worked for the king or just wouldn’t get involved in anything unnecessary.
