Zilyana and Zirion had snuck in thanks to their shadow bending skills during the conversation and were just waiting to strike The thieves guild was so they had visited before and even taken souild leader It was easy to evade detection thanks to their previous knowledge and advanced hiding skills that were rarely seen

“What do ant? For starters, you could tell us who ordered you to attack that warehouse in Southtown tonight”

The guildto the woht on fast and realized why this person was here and also who they orking for

“You really want to start a fight with the guild over sonoh Reinald was considered a bloodthirsty brute he was a lot ave him credit He knehat that team of four had done today and by who they were hired He also kneho the warehouse belonged to, it was one of Exeor’s assets Thus he ca these people here The other option would be a third party

“Do you? You don’t even kno big our couild disappear…”

The woman approached with her weapons drawn, apparently, the threat didn’t work The woman didn’t even try to keep her boss’ identity secret It looked as if they were couild over this matter

Reinald wasn’t sos done Still, he wasn’t sure that he would get out of this alive if he fought now His two bodyguards eaker than him and this woman was close to him in levels The problem was that she wasn’t alone and he knew that they were the types that could kill him before any reinforcements came

“Wait!”

He moved his hand out and the woainst this person, they were clearly seasoned killers There was a sical contract sined when he was hired The curse that the thief guild master would receive was quite h

“You knoorks, I can’t say anything, I’d as well just kill ht now… but…”

Theon the wall that was to the side This gave the woh info for the next step She walked over andto the side, underneath was a medium-sized safe with a combination lock

“8752309567”

He said the couards were surprised that their leader didn’t give him the order to attack yet Their buddies were dead but the wo towards his personal safe Before she put in the code she turned to face the cat man

“You, enter the couildco explode or fire off some poison mist instead They were the ones with the upper hand as the thieves were below their skills Reinald just gave out a sigh and nodded to his henchht code is 8752309569, hey don’t blalad that the woer and just let this slide The beast up in his face or destroying any evidence She also realized why he wouldn’t really be willing to blow it up as there were a lot of gold coins and costly docuh them she found a certain black book with the na, she found what she was looking for The thieves guild kept a record of everyone they orking with and for They did it e of ood…”

She looked at the name of the person that ordered the hit The name was also visible on other missions like the ones that used poison in the restaurants or the ones that targeted the caravans of other council members Reinald couldn’t disclose the information himself but if someone found any evidence theed to have a backdoor in the contract as he orking with people that weren’t very fas worked in the shadows

“Now you know, not like you’ll be able to do e Now fuck off!”

Zilyana took a est the information that she received It was true, the person responsible would be hard to go against if what the book said was true

“If you send any more of your er in your back”

Zilyana threw the book back at the guildSoon the two assassins faded into the shadows to e and smashed his desk in half with his fist The two intruders wouldn’t witness his

Zirion eed fro

“That was boring, wouldn’t it have been better to just finish them off?”

Zilyana looked at her partner in cri at an idiot There was a line that you shouldn’t cross If they assassinated the guild leader, the other guilds et involved It was unknown if they would but they had some powerful individuals on their payroll, it was better to leave theuilds would reo overboard they won’t either, we sent aany uild master would probably cease any operations for a while as the whole council of merchants will noho was behind this The probleular people could touch

“So, who is it? You got awfully quiet after reading those notes”

Zilyana stopped in her tracks and looked at the moon elf coo do my report and then check up on the kid, I’ll call you when I need you”

The woed while also disappearing He didn’t really care who it was they were going against; he was only interested in ot too tiresoive him money There were many rich people in this world happy to hire soht was finally co wasn’t as bloody as expected as Zilyana handled it with only two people getting killed She sped towards the er’s house to do her report

The person that was entangled in this whole ainst a cold stone wall He was cold and couldn’t sleep, the guards had pushed him inside one of the prison cells like a co someone that would be here at 8 ao back to his workshop

He needed to also contact his boss as he had a sinking suspicion that the coet of this attack and not he He would still need to wait a few hours as it was only four in the h this head, ainst forced entry in the future

He felt like he could have done better but it wasn’t a total disaster He lar He had also gained a title that he would rather not have, na a hu the fencer that was after him that one time but he wasn’t the one that performed the last hit He wasn't sure if it was because of hioblins that he wasn't feeling bad about it Did he get used to killing already?

After thinking about new contingencies and rong he finally h to doze off What transpired in the shadoould remain unknown to him for some time
