However, it is not ruled out that Kress will take it to exchange money with Ramon, Haraus dreams of rebuilding the intelligence network of the Keeper, and if he gets his wish, the first thing the king will do when he returns is to kill the renegade predecessor, and then choose the most astute person from among the professional spies to replace her.

"Oh it's not interesting" The female killer is a little bored with asking the same question every day.

"By the way, don't you think you're better than me, why don't you find clues yourself," Lorna gave her a blank look.

"Well, that's a good idea!"

Kress squinted and thought about it for a moment, then patted his thigh and stood up: "Anyway, that dead old man told me the location of your stronghold, so it shouldn't be anything if I go over and check." ”

"I can't figure it out in my life based on your words," I don't know if it was intentional, the girl said in a tone of exclamation and contempt.

"Well, what if I find out?"

"Hey, you know I've even taken the dagger, what else can I give you," Lorna snapped a dead fish eye.

"I'll you, you're ruthless enough now, even if you complete the task, it's in vain," Kress didn't have any strength at all when he thought about this.

"So you might as well get me out. ”

"No, it's not fun at all. ”

The girl has been trying to convince Kress to help her, but each time she has been rejected by the other party on the grounds that "it doesn't make any sense to do this". The female killer's temperament is temperamental, which makes Lorna feel difficult to grasp.

“”

"With !!"

Suddenly. Kress smirked at Lorna, grimaced, and ran out of the dungeon in two jumps. Hear the hoarse singing all the way. The girl instinctively had a bad premonition

"It's time to go. ”

On this day, Fatis called Alleyne and the others together.

"Where are you going?"

"Suno, we can't leave Lorna there alone. ”

"Forget it," Alleyne's face turned white when he heard such a crazy idea, "Even the sentries guarding the dungeon are full of plate armor, what can we do to save the regimental leader." ”

"How do you know if you don't try it," Bestur said, spreading his hands, "Actually, I know how to forge a knife that can cut through the whole body of plate armor."

"Hey. Now it's not about talking to you about the whole body armor!" Fatis sighed, and looked at Artiman next to him with a look of disdain, as long as Besture paid him on time. You'll be loyal to the mercenary team, but it's hard to communicate with an uneducated nomad.

"All in all, it is not justified for a legion to leave its leader in an enemy dungeon," Artiman had no opinion on this. "Even if you don't have any plans right now. Let's take one step at a time, and we'll figure it out when we get to Suno City. ”

Aryne looked left at Fatis with an expectant look on his face, and at Bestur with a calm face, and it seemed that everyone was waiting for him to make a decision.

"Okay, I don't have an opinion anyway, if you object to you, I want to be a ghost who is afraid of death. ”

Ramon has little time to spare except for the human trafficking business he handles every day.

"Aha~~~"

The old man, who had just signed an account, suddenly had a dagger on his waist, which frightened him into tears.

"Ah!!!h

"Hey~~~ You old guy can still jump so high, it's not easy. Kress shook the weapon in his hand triumphantly.

"Hey. Anyway, I'm an old man, you're going to kill me so much!" Ramon looked back and was furious.

"Well, you extinguish the fire. Mother, I want to come and discuss a good thing with you. ”

"What the hell, can you still have good things??"

For this subordinate, Ramon felt that she was clever on the one hand, and on the other hand, she always liked to cause trouble for him.

"Well, if that little girl says everything that needs to be said, how much can the king give you?"

"The negotiated price is a five-year lease of Elinhada, which should make a lot of money. Although he said this, Ramon didn't pay much attention to it. It should be said that he felt that the money was not very easy to make.

"And how much are you going to give me?"

"Fuck your sister, I pay you every month, and you still have the cheekiness to ask me for more??" Kress said this, which made the old man feel a little annoyed.

"Uh, okay, what if there's something else?" the female killer couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when she looked at her boss with such an attitude.

"What additional benefits can you give me??"

Kress deliberately stared at the ceiling.

"What do you think of that little girl?"

"Of course not!"

As soon as Ramon heard this, his eyes, which were still half-squinted, immediately opened back halfway: "What, do you have a way?"

"Well, I said I was cheeky to blackmail you, what else do I have to talk to you" Kress pretended not to care, ready to raise his feet and leave.

An eerie snicker came from the darkness.

“”

The girl weighed the distance from her opponent - a position where it was too hard to attack with a throwing knife - and slowly moved her pace. There was a rare snow stop at Fort Radogir tonight, but a dark cloud on the horizon obscured the moon that was supposed to show its face.

"Hula-!!"

The other party began to move, and Lorna saw that the man was covered in a black cloak, like a shadow doppelganger, and he was speeding towards her, and a cold light flashed under the sleeve of the cloak.

Enough is enough

Lorna took off the two flying knives in her hand at the moment when she saw the enemy enter the attack distance of her hidden weapon, generally speaking, few people in the world can survive under the hidden weapon of the "secret keeper", but the girl did not expect her to be able to succeed in one blow, and the opponent in front of her did not seem to be so easy to deal with, so at the moment of the flying knife, she stretched out her left hand and held the handle of the handguard sword

At the same time, the girl felt the chill above the front door, and she knew that her opponent had dodged the throwing knife. But this is not worth making her panic, her right hand pulled the fox fur on her shoulder, the whole coat covered the top of herself, the soft fur products easily blocked the hidden weapon thrown at the master's forehead under the action of force, and the long sword that was just half unsheathed blocked the dagger between the lightning and flint!

"Huh~~~"

It's that chilling laughter again. The long sword and the short blade glowed with a demonic sheen—and the moon broke free from the shackles of the clouds

The brim of the cloak was drawn low, and even though Lorna was slightly down, only half of the Assassin's face and a few strands of blonde hair could be seen, and a slender silhouette appeared under the black fabric—it was a woman.

Lorna's hand gripping the hilt of her sword suddenly exerted force, and the two shrewd and capable assassins retreated almost simultaneously, the distance they had to return was roughly the same.

Although I don't know who sent the woman in front of me, the assassin of this technique is also a rare skill in the whole of Calradia. As things stand, Lorna can think of a number of ways to deal with the immediate threat, but the latter may also have a lot to do

"The methods of the keeper of secrets are worthy of their name"

The visitor spoke suddenly, and her voice was a little hoarse for a woman. The sword in Lorna's hand barely had any stance, and the striker hung to the ground. However, this is only a façade, and in the face of a cloaked killer, it is really unknown how many killing weapons are hidden in her wide sleeved robe.

"I don't think you will sue me for your purpose," the girl calmly looked at the shadow under the other party's hood, "So can you sue me by name?"

The female killer grinned, this kind of smile with miserable white teeth that ordinary people must have looked at the hair.

"Kresss. ”

This name, Lorna thought about it in her mind for two seconds, and then excluded it from the familiar list of killers.

"My boss asked me to try your skills, so I came over and had fun. The woman named Kress put her hand back on the cover of her robe and took a few steps back.

"Are you leaving?" Lorna squinted at her.

"What, you're going to let me go?"

"That may not be possible. The girl raised her sword and hid her other hand out of sight of the person opposite.

It was at this time

"What's wrong, Lorna?"

It was the voice of Fatis, a fire was lit from behind the girl, and the middle-aged uncle came out of the tower house with a lantern.

"Get out of there, Fatis!!"

Almost at the same time, Lorna saw Kress raise the crossbow in his hand, and the angle of his hand was a little wider, intending to shoot the people upstairs.

Time didn't leave her much time to think about, and the girl threw the sword in her hand with the fastest technique, aiming at Kress's face, and Fatis, who had just stood on the terrace, had not been able to see the situation in the square clearly, and did not take the slightest precautions.

"This is"

The sound of bones shattering

Lorna's eyes widened in astonishment, and it suddenly occurred to her that Kress's crossbow had been fired once before, and there was not enough space to fill the second arrow from the moment she appeared, that is, the crossbow in her hand had no arrows

It might not have been difficult for her to notice this under normal circumstances, but she hadn't thought about it at all a second before.

The girl's vision suddenly rose, her body falling backwards, and she saw the dart stuck in her left chest, and the white shirt stained with red blood. The pain began to widen, encompassing all the senses, the feeling of the floor in her back, the moment her consciousness faded for a moment, and through the blurred vision Lorna seemed to see her sword embedded in the crossbow in the hands of her enemy, and the distinctive and cruel smile that Kress threw at her
