That night, in the guest room of the tavern, Mike felt as if someone stood above him.

He slowly opened his eyes, and bestowed upon him was Crow’s fair face.

At that moment, Crow’s face was paler than usual. Coupled with her rapid breath, it was obvious that Crow was not in a good condition.

Mike looked at Crow with a puzzled expression and asked, “You… Why aren’t you wearing a hood?”

“… is this question very important right now?” Crow’s face gave off an ugly expression.

“It’s quite important to me, yes.” Mike slowly sat up.

Due to the changed angle of his sight, Mike managed to pick up other details of his surroundings and Crow’s features.

Crow’s left hand was being dragged down, and her arm bled non-stop. On the ground, was a hoodie that had been cut open.

Mike was slightly stunned. He looked at Crow’s ugly expression and revealed a mocking smile. “I say, did you just attack me while I was sleeping?”

“…”

Crow did not answer, but in Mike’s eyes, this was no different from acquiescence. Her silence spoke volumes.

“Let me guess. Although I don’t know what your goal is, you did want to kill me while I was asleep.

“However, your attack was blocked by me, in my sleep.

“Not only did you fail to hurt me, but you were also injured in the process.

“Am I right?”

The smile on Mike’s face turned crooked, and Crow’s face became even more unsightly. Obviously, he had guessed correctly.

“So, what do you plan to do?”

Crow covered the wound on her arm as she panted slightly. She knew that the man in front of her looked very indecent, but he was very ruthless at the crucial moment.

She most likely will not survive in this situation. As she stood in front of this man, she knew she would not be able to escape.

This was because he was too powerful, so powerful that it was incomprehensible.

How could someone block and counterattack while asleep?!

It could be expected for her to wait upon her death now.

However, what she did not expect was that Mike did not care too much about the attack just now. Instead, he asked about another matter.

“How’s the assassination of the Princess going?”

Crow was slightly stunned. His question baffled her again.

Was this man not in rage?

Was he not furious? She had planned to kill him just now!

Why did this guy not care about this matter at all?

Was it perhaps, that the assassination of the princess was very important to him? Of course, although Crow was very confused, she knew what she should say next.

“It’s done.” Crow calmly with her eyes fixed on Mike.

She wanted to know how this man was going to deal with her. After all, she had already done what she had to do for him. She had almost lost her left doing so.

Maybe he would kill her right now to prevent her from leaking out this matter.

However, she expected the unexpected.

“It’s fine as long as you’re done. You can go now.”

Mike lay back on the bed, covered himself with the blanket, and signaled the direction of the door with his eyes closed.

“Close the door for me when you go out. Thanks.”

“…”

Crow fell silent again.
