Chapter 143: Chapter 137 – Preparations before the night

Chapter 137 - Preparations before the night

Shaman knocked on the door to Clara’s room to inform her of the mission. 

“Who is it?” Clara called out wondering if it was a maid. 

“It’s me Shaman, sorry to bother you so soon but Freja gave us a mission.” Shaman slipped the piece of paper under the door that had the details of the mission and list of people to kill. 

Clara got up and picked up the paper reading through the details. 

“What time?” Clara slipped the piece of paper back under the door. It was also only noon, so she wanted to know how much time she had before they went out. 

“Just as the sun is setting, come to my room.” Shaman picked up the piece of paper and put it in her inventory.

“Take care, I will be going now” Knowing that Clara still needed space, Shaman quickly left. 

“Yep.” Clara quietly responded and went back to bed.

Shaman walked back into her room to find Kiruya had come to visit. 

“Hey Shaman, I have got some things to give you for your mission. Freja realised you haven't stepped outside the mansion so you will need a map.” Kiruya let out an awkward chuckle. 

“If you hadn’t realised we would have ended up running in circles so thank you Kiruya.” Shaman only just realised that they would be lost and was grateful for Kiruya. 

“No worries, although it wouldn't be too hard to find since they live in small mansions. Also, please try and avoid collateral damage, not all nobles are bad and not all servants are complicit.” Kiruya laid out the map of the city on the coffee table. 

“I also took the liberty to mark the map for you, so you know which places to go to.” Kiruya pointed at different red markings on the map. 

Elysia sat down to Kiruya’s side while Shaman jumped over the couch, sitting down on her other side. 

Shaman and Kiruya did not think much of it, but Elysia was trying her best to keep calm. 

‘Don’t get angry, don’t get angry Elysiaaaa, everything is fine, we are just looking at a map.’ Elysia was now concentrating more on not exploding rather than the map itself. 

“Is that everything you need to give us?” Shaman was wondering if there was more since personally coming over to give them a map sounded time consuming. 

“Nope, I have these crystals which will allow you to instantly teleport back here.” Kiruya pulled out a grey crystal and handed them to Elysia and Shaman. 

“Oh, well that reduces the stakes of the mission quite a bit.” Shaman felt now that they were given a free get out of jail card, the mission was going to be easy. 

“Well this will be the only one you will ever get since they take a year to make and only in batches of 4. Also if you’re wondering why only 4, we do not have enough mana to make any more than that.” Kiruya gave a short explanation as these return stones were a one time use and scarce. 

“I see, so we can use this anywhere in the world then?” Shaman was rather impressed with the hearthstone as she didn’t expect they would exist. Although they were one time use, it was nice to know they had a way to instantly return if they ever needed to. 

“You could be in a different universe and it will return you back here so use it wisely. I already gave one to Clara so don’t worry about not having enough.” 

“I understand, is there anything else we should know?” Shaman was eager to plan their assassinations as she could only imagine how cool it would be to silently kill a target.

“Only that Freja has put a mark on you to allow you to bypass all the magic alarms. You do not worry about tripping magic alarms unless you are spotted. Although it's an invasion of privacy, Freja made this mark so she could pay a visit to some noble women undetected, but don’t tell her I said that.” Kiruya looked around for a moment just to make sure Freja wasn’t listening in

Shaman had no words as it sounded like something Freja would do.  

“Freja has tried to make this as safe as possible to see how capable you are so don’t disappoint.” Kiruya stood up and went to their door before turning around. 

“Good luck on your first mission, I don’t want to see my new friends die so quickly.” 

“Aha, we are not that hopeless, don’t worry, we will be back in one piece.” Shaman waved and Kiruya exited the room while waving back. 

Once Kiruya had left Elysia fell back in her seat in relief. 

“Finally!” Elysia was already mentally exhausted from trying to fight the urge to strangle Kiruya. 

“You did great, sorry I didn’t realise sitting next to her would cause you to stress out that much.” Shaman realised she was rather physically close to Kiruya which probably meant Elysia was focusing on controlling herself instead of what was being said.

“It’s so hard to control these emotions, it's basically become an instinct for me to feel this way.” Elysia was frustrated at herself, since she wanted to improve herself but it was such a difficult task. 

“Well since we have a mission tonight I won't be able to reward you, but whenever we have a free night you can cash in.” Shaman felt bad for Elysia. They haven’t been able to do anything and when they were about to, it got interrupted. 

Elysia’s mood got better as she was wondering what was going to happen tonight and was glad to hear it will still happen when they are free. 

“Don’t get your hopes up too much, never know we may be killing these nobles for a few nights.” Shaman did not want Elysia to get her hopes up as it may be a week till they get to do something. 

“T-true, there are about 20 people on that list and we have no idea how long each kill will take.” Elysia was a little disappointed but nonetheless still looked forward to that night.

“Speaking of which, they are all tier 6 - 7 but their level is lower than ours.” Shaman found it odd that the nobles were high tier but were at such a pitiful level. 

“Well, high tier does not necessitate high level. Remember how Wolfy started as level 1 but tier 4. Perhaps tier represents innate talent and levels represent actual combat experience?” Elysia guessed since they were nobles they might have higher innate talents. 

“I guess, but you would think they would have to be somewhat strong to hold up as a noble. Wait nevermind, the guys in the human cities were rather trash.” Shaman thought back to their time in Cholden and Victoria city. It dawned on her that they were rather low levels and power wasn’t the only merit to become a noble. 

“But that would be weird, Because Freja seems rather strict and yet she lets them into her Empire?” Elysia saw Freja as someone who would be rather picky and wouldn’t let anyone who didn’t have a good character in. 

“Well, as the acting queen of the Fox realm, she can’t just ignore pressing issues and shut out all the nobles in the absence of the true queen. Also, assuming it’s the nobles who leaked that the queen is missing, perhaps Freja wants them where she can keep tabs on them. That way it’s easier to fill the list of who must be taken care of…”

“I wonder why no one is making a big deal that Freja has taken over for the Queen, perhaps she’s been increasing her influence even before these events and people simply assumed this is just her consolidating her power.” Elysia started getting annoyed at the political mess they’ve been dragged into. 

“Let's try to go the stealth route. If we kill them before they see us we won’t have to listen to their excuses.” Shaman could already see the headache if they let them go on a monologue.

“Anyway let’s see if we can get some dark clothes because I'm not sure about this bright red shirt and my other white shirt is not ideal for stealth either.” Shaman knew she had her shadow skills but wanted to dress the part as she found it rather cool. 

Elysia nodded and they both got up to get some clothes, leaving Wolfy behind. 

‘Wish I could evolve already.’ Wolfy had dozed off thinking about his evolution while Shaman and Elysia talked about the nobles. He hadn’t even realised they left the room before falling asleep peacefully on the bed.
