Chapter 93: 93: Diversion

While Jayna was trying hard to make the thread entering the needle, an employee inside the royal palace hurried out towards the capital city. Then, after walking around for a while the employee went back to the royal palace.

During that moment, someone sees this employee and writes a letter to others. After a series of moving around through many different people, the letter arrives at the Lefty Coin base. 

Looking at the letter, "Finally, it's time." said Victor inside his underground base.

"Boss, are you sure about this?" asked one of Victor's subordinates.

"Don't worry about this, we even managed to hire a Bloody Star member for this job. Just do exactly as the plan and we will be rich soon." replied Victor.

"B-Bloody star?! That famous assassin group." commented on the people before getting a nod from Victor.

"Alright, boss." said the other Victor's subordinate while feeling relieved that Bloody Star also joined their operation.

"Then, start preparing everything. We will move tonight." said Victor.

"Yes, Boss." replied the people inside the underground room."

"Kukuku… Just a little bit. You will be free again, my lord." muttered Victor.

Soon, the night is approaching. During this time, half of the royal guard accompanied King Leon towards Black Fortress. Although there are only half left the security is still tight as the Royal guard consists of the high-grade combatant.

At this time, Angus lamented his condition. He could go back to his manor a few hours ago. However, Jayna keeps pestering him about the technique to control a thread entering the small needle hole.

Despite a few hours of trying, the Princess didn't want to give up. Finally, left with no choice, Angus obliged to accompany the princess. Furthermore, Darius suggests for he to have dinner together with Jayna.

He feels that the old butler must have some planning. But, it didn't matter for Angus. He also feels that it is safer inside the royal palace than his townhouse during this time. 

Although the king and half the royal guard are out at the moment, there are still many defense mechanisms and a lot of guards inside the royal palace. So, if there is chaos inside the capital city, the safest place will be the Royal Palace.

Fortunately for Angus, the dinner will be held privately. It seems it's quite normal for the other royalties to not have dinner together in everyday life. Especially at this time where the king is going out to fight against monsters.

They are not in the mood to eat together since whenever they eat together, the meal will become like a small party. No one in their right mind has a small party during this tense situation, it will be a good thing if not being executed on the spot.

Now, Jayna and Angus follow the old butler Darius towards the small dining area. Inside the room, there is already Master Ban who is starting to eat first.

Unlike both Angus and Jayna, Ban is not born as noble so he only knows a little about noble etiquette where people wait for the host before they start eating. Still, none of the people in the room find having issues with Ban's behavior.

Angus himself never likes formal etiquette while Jayna is too busy playing with the thread and needle to notice this. As for Darius, he didn't say anything since no one protested about it. 

Moreover, Ban is a strong swordmaster with a lot of prestige and connection. So, it is not worth getting into trouble over this simple matter. Soon, the other food also came but Jayna is still busy by herself. 

Noticing this, "Jayna, why do you keep playing with that thread and needle? I found you keep busy with those things since entering this room." asked Ban.

"Ahh.. Master Ban, this is infuriating." grumble Jayna who just realized Ban's presence.

Then, Jayna begins to talk about Angus's challenge to Ban. Hearing Jayna's explanation, Ban immediately laughing very hard.

"Hahahaha… You got pranked by Angus. To control mana in such a way for you is like trying to do a long run without learning how to walk first. It's an impossible feat for the current you." explained Ban.

"Ehh.. then, how come Angus could do it easily?" asked Jayna.

"Ehh.. Angus could do it??" asked Ban back while looking at Angus who is engrossing himself to eat the food but still in a noble manner.

'Hmm.. This monster meat is delicious. As expected of royalty, their dinner is different.' thought Angus before he noticed that everyone was staring at him.

"Err.. Is something wrong?" asked Angus innocently.

"Jayna told me you could manipulate the thread and needle perfectly." said Ban.

"Yeah, it's easy. What's wrong with that??" As Angus took another needle and thread to demonstrate it.

Looking at Angus's demonstration, "Kid, did you know what you are doing is completely absurd?? especially for you who are still not forming your core." said Ban.

"Err…" as Angus tried to find some excuse.

*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* Before Angus could answer, everyone heard an explosion sound from far away. Although the explosion is far away, it still causes some tremors inside the royal palace.

After the tremor ended, a guard shouted from the outside, "The capital city is on fire!!"

Hearing this, everyone immediately looked toward the balcony where they could see that there was some big wildfire and chaos inside the capital city.

"Tch… You guys wait here. I will check the current situation." said Ban before jumping out.

During this time, "Fourth Princess, please return to your room first. I smell something fishy about…" *BOOM* Then, a huge explosion comes out from the Royal Palace entrance.

The explosion is quite big and causes the entire Royal Palace. Some of the guards are burned alive.

"Young master Victory, please move with the fourth princess to her room along with the guards. I will check the situation." said Darius before getting a nod from Angus.

Then, Jayna and Angus move back towards the royal palace. Angus notices that Jayna is still quite shocked and keeps silent during this incident.

'She must be shocked as this is the first time she feels this way.' thought Angus.

While they keep moving, through a big hall Angus feels a dreadful sensation all over his body.

"Everyone, Duck!!" shouted Angus as he pushed Jayna's back.

Before the other guard could respond, a series of flying dagger imbued mana came towards all of them in the blink of an eye.

The knife easily hit the vital spot of the guard and instantly killed them despite wearing enchanted armor.

"Ohhh.. My.. How come I missed it??" a hoarse voice heard in the air.

During this time, Jayna looking at the guards getting easily killed, "I.. I am going to die. I am going to die. I am going to die" muttered Jayna as her mana became erratic.

At this moment, she gets hit by Angus in the neck before falling unconscious. Then, Angus put Jayna in the corner before summoning his Sky Thorn.

Looking at Angus trying to fight back, "Kekeke… what a futile effort?" another hoarse voice heard in the air.

Angus puts on a serious face and silently uses [Mana Echolocation] to detect the hidden assassin. After locating the assassin, "For an assassin you talk too much." said Angus.

Then, he threw several flying daggers towards the assassin's location. The assassin is surprised at this, but still reacts and dodge all the daggers. 

Knowing his cover was already blown, the assassin approached Angus from the front. During this time, Angus ready his Sky Thorn and fires the hidden mechanism inside the weapon. *BAM*

Didn't expect that the weapon could be launched at fast speed, the assassin received the blade ends at point-blank range and flew over towards the nearby wall.

As for Angus, he used [Yin Yang Balance] to reduce the recoil. But still feeling hurt from his hand. Looking at the embedded assassin in the wall, Angus feels relieved.

'Fiuhh.. Fortunately, he underestimated me."

Suddenly, Angus feels a mana fluctuation from the assassin's direction. Angus immediately shot the other end of Sky Thorn towards him. *BAM* *Blarr* The attack missed and only cracked the wall.

"Brat… That hurts!! I'll kill you!!" Shouted the assassin as his body became bigger.

Soon, his body changes into something similar to a beast. Angus recognizes the shape is similar to the werewolf from his past life.

'Great… A beastkin… Damn it!!' cursed Angus inwardly.

*AWOOO* shouted the assassin before disappearing from Angus's vision. Using his instinct, Angus managed to avoid the assassin's attack but still got hit.

Scratches, bruises, light wounds begin to appear on Angus's body as he gets attacked from all directions. During this time, Angus could only defend himself using Sky Thorn.

Despite the huge difference in strength, the assassin still does not target Angus's vital area as he wants to toy Angus to death.

Soon, Angus was bleeding all over his body. During this moment, the assassin feels a dreadful chill when he approaches Angus. Thrusting his instinct, the assassin moved back away.

Right now, the assassin feels like being glared at by a bloodthirsty abomination. His instinct tells him to run far away from the kid in front of him.

Looking at the assassin's reaction, "Come, little dog."
