Chapter 462: Assassination


    Wings of Darkness.


    This is the most powerful assassin group active in Hermann''s dark world. To be honest, Cleolev never thought of using the power of these assassins, but now, he seems to have no other choice.


    “This is your task.”


    Looking at the woman wearing a mask in front of her, Cleolev whispered. In front of him at this moment was the leader of the Dark Wings Group - Black Swan. Of course, he was also Hermann''s strongest assassin, Cleolev. If anyone else had it, it would have been impossible for him to know who this person was.


    "Do you want me to kill that great judge?"


    The black swan''s voice was very calm.


    "But isn''t the order of the Council capturing him alive?"


    “If you can do it, then you might as well give it a try.”


    Cryolev shook his head.


    "Whether it is killed, injured or captured alive, you can do whatever you want. In any case, they must feel threatened. We can help you with whatever help you need."


    "No, I''ll go alone."


    "You go alone?"


    Hearing the black swan''s answer, Cleolev was stunned for a moment, while the black swan nodded.


    "Of course, the other party''s methods are changeable, and more people will increase variables. If I go alone, I can escape even if I encounter danger."


    “…Okay, you can do whatever you want.”


    Creolev didn''t care much, and he actually didn''t expect the Black Swan to succeed. Indeed, the other party is quite famous in Hermann, but how could the judge be easy to mess with? He killed the ruthless man from the former Demon King and several demons. No matter how powerful you are, is it better than the demon or the former Demon King?


    But no matter what, Cleolev can only use this method. The army''s attack seems to be not worth the cost at present, and the morale of the First Legion is also declining. However, open guns are easy to avoid hidden arrows, and since the opponent can easily deal with his frontal attack, he will send an assassin to assassinate him so that the opponent will become nervous and maybe he can seize the opportunity.


    As for how much this black swan can do...it depends on herself.


    Soon, when night fell again, the black swan quietly came under the walls of Bonn Fortress.


    What unexpectedly was that there were no guards on the fortress at the moment, and there were only a few lonely torches there, and there was no warning at all.


    What is this situation?


    Black Swan was confused, and at the same time she was also alert. She also knew that the Inquisition had very magical spells, so she did not sneak into the fortress according to the established route, but climbed over the mountain next to her and quietly came to the side of the fortress. Then the black swan climbed up the city wall with a rope and came to the inside of the fortress.


    After all, the walls of Fortress Bonn are only three meters high, and they are really not very high. For a top killer like Black Swan, it is naturally not a problem.


    But when the black swan stepped onto the city wall, the first thing that came to him was a... fragrance!


    That’s right, it smells so good!


    What does this taste?


    Out of curiosity, the black swan poked his head out in confusion and looked carefully in the direction where the smell came out.


    Then, she was stunned.


    I saw that in the square in the center of the fortress, a huge bonfire was burning, and next to the bonfire was a dining table with various delicacies on it. There are desserts, roasted chicken, and even a lot of bright and beautiful fruits... Well, even if the black swan saw it, he couldn''t help but want to drool.


    At present, those girls are holding wine glasses at the dining table, eating, drinking and laughing, giving people the feeling that they are not on the battlefield, but in a banquet dance hall!


    Is it so comfortable?


    Seeing this scene, thinking about the tragic situation of the First Legion below, the Black Swan was speechless. I really don’t know what it would be if Cleolev knew that the enemy he racked his brains to deal with was holding a banquet here. By the way, this is too disrespectful to people. They are in a state of enthusiasm, and are you eating, drinking and having fun on it?


    If the First Legion hadn''t been defeated by the opponent several times in a row, the Black Swan would have even thought that this group of girls was simply a ignorant waste!


    But now... people have proved their strength, and eating and drinking is a manifestation of their strength.


    But that''s good.


    At least for the moment, the other party does not seem to have found his infiltration, and there will be a lot of information collected in this kind of situation. Although she certainly couldn''t come forward, the black swan still quietly sneaked into the shadow of the corridor, listening to the girls'' chat content not far from the banquet hall.


    "The First Legion is not attacking? What should we do with our graduation assessment?"


    "Don''t worry, I heard that the Second Legion will arrive soon, and the Council seems to be very dissatisfied with General Cleolev. It will definitely launch an attack again. We will have a chance to perform at that time."


    "I hope I can win..."


    "You don''t have to worry about this, I think it''s definitely okay."


    "But Hermann''s soldiers couldn''t help but fight. They fell down before we could use our strength. I heard that the soldiers in this country were very tough, and I thought it would be a tough battle..."


    “………………”


    Listening to the girls'' discussion, the black swan had a black line on his face. Fortunately, General Cleolev was not here, otherwise he would have been vomited blood and died of anger.


    However, from the girls, the Black Swan also learned another information.


    The Second Corps is about to arrive, and the Council is very dissatisfied with General Cleolev and is likely to take away his command!


    You must know that you don’t even know this information, but how does the enemy know it?


    Moreover, from the casual words of the girls attending the banquet, it can be seen that this does not seem to be particularly important to them, and the information required to be kept confidential...


    Originally, the Black Swan had the idea to go to the warehouse to light a fire and put the entire fortress into chaos, but...


    "After that being said, everyone is here to attend the banquet, is there any safety problem?"


    "No problem, there are those soldiers in charge of guarding, and I also summoned several mud and dust statues to guard, there will be no problem."


    "………………” Hearing this, the Black Swan decisively gave up. She would not worry if it was just a soldier, but she had seen the giant mud and dust statue on the battlefield and had no weakness at all. The only way was to smash it into rags. It was obvious that for an assassin like herself, this requirement was too high.


    However, at this moment, suddenly, a news caught the attention of the Black Swan.


    "By the way, where is Lord Duanmu?"


    "He went back to his room to rest."


    "So early?"


    "Does they have other entertainment activities..."


    As they spoke, the girls started to laugh. Hearing this, a light flashed in the Black Swan''s eyes. As a top assassin, she certainly knew what the girls meant. In other words, Duanmu Huai was not prepared now, and it was a good time to do it yourself!


    As for where Duanmuhuai is, this may be a problem for a rookie, but for a sophisticated assassin, this is not a problem. After all, a qualified commander, even a place to rest, must follow certain rules. Otherwise, when the enemy starts war, you sleep tightly in a corner, and wait until the enemy catches you before waking up... Wouldn''t it be too late?


    So soon, the Black Swan came to the command center located in the center of the fortress. According to her experience, the general commander room should be nearby, and in fact, the Black Swan was not wrong.


    “Woo…ah…uh…uh…!”


    When the black swan quietly approached a window from the wall, she immediately heard the humming sound coming from inside, like a beast. Hearing this sound, the black swan''s face slightly condensed. Then she reached out her hand, quietly held the short blade on her waist, quietly approached the window, and looked inside.


    Immediately afterwards, the black swan saw a strong and extremely tall man standing there at the moment, while his hands were holding a petite purple-haired girl, who...


    “Ah…ahhhhh!!”


    The purple-haired girl screamed suddenly...


    “…………”


    Looking at this scene, the black swan calmed down his emotions, held the short sword coated with poison, and slowly approached the window. However, just as she came to the window, suddenly, a voice sounded.


    "Hehe, it''s not a good thing to peek at this time?"


    “!?”


    Hearing the sound coming from behind, the black swan suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He hurriedly pulled out the poisonous blade and swung it backwards. However, the poisonous blade, which was blood-sealed, swung it in vain. Then the Black Swan felt someone pushing her behind her and pushing her directly into the room. At the same time, her arm that was waving backward was also flipped and grabbed by the other party. After dislocating with a "click", she turned around and aimed at her neck.


    "I''ve caught the little mouse."


    "Thank you for your hard work, bell girl."


    Duanmu Huai nodded to the bell girl behind the black swan, and then stared at the black swan, while the latter''s expression remained unchanged, and he looked at Duanmu Huai in front of him coldly.


    "Are you the assassin sent by Cleolev to kill me?"


    “………………”


    "Forget it, it doesn''t matter whether you want to say it or not. I don''t plan to kill you. Let me tell you something to General Cleolev for me."


    Duanmu Huai didn''t care about his current appearance. He first carried the unconscious Kanami to the bed, covered her with a quilt, and then looked at the black swan.


    "Hermann''s change is necessary, and it also requires his strength. Perhaps escaping is indeed a simple thing for him. But I hope he can truly face all this, not just be a deserter who escapes. The positive reality may be cruel, but this is his mission. If he wants to fight for Hermann''s tomorrow, then we still hope that he can stand on our side... Okay, you can convey this to General Cleolev. By the way, tell him that this is ultimately a problem within Hermann. If he is Hermann''s most famous general and never willing to face and change this country, it is his own choice. The Inquisition will no longer care about these messy things."


    After saying this, Duanmu Huai made a gesture, and then the bell girl exerted a little force. With a "click" sound, the black swan''s dislocated arm was taken back again, while she moved her arm and looked at Duanmu Huai.


    "You are so sure I will pass the message? General Cleolev is not an easy person to be convinced."


    "It''s my business if I say it or not, it''s your business if you spread it or not, it''s his business if he listens or not."


    Duanmu Huai waved his hand.


    "You can leave now."


    “………………”


    After hearing Duanmu Huai''s words, the black swan stared at him carefully for a moment, then without saying a word, he directly looked out of the window and left.


    "Huh... it''s really troublesome."


    Watching the other party leave, Duanmu Huai breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time the bell girl also came over with a smile.


    "How? The bell girl did a great job, right?"


    "certainly."


    Hearing the bell girl’s words, Duanmu Huai smiled and reached out to hold the bell girl into her arms.


    "I will give you a reward."


    He spoke.
