Chapter 447: Ambush

Anna frowned when she saw Noel entering the mansion. At first, she thought Noel would be outside, so she planned to lure the enemy outside, specifically when she ambushed the Count.

However, it seemed that the plan had changed. Looking at the current situation, it was clear that Noel was planning to buy some time for Anna to infiltrate the mansion and get the important documents.

Anna muttered, "So, should I go inside right now? But…"

Anna couldn't enter easily. After all, she was still tailing the mysterious Spirit Master that came out from the Count's mansion.

If she let her guard down even for a second, the enemy would be able to pick up her presence.

But when she looked at the guy, she realized he was observing Noel's movement as well. His identity was clear since he had shown his Demon Banner Army badge.

And there was a reaction from this mysterious guy as if he wanted to kill Noel as well.

'I wonder what I should do right now. I want to infiltrate the Count's mansion right now, but it doesn't seem to be wise to move my eyes away from this guy.' Anna gulped down. Noel must be expecting her to do something. But there was no way to inform Noel about it.

Noel, on the other hand, was walking next to the Count as he went into his bedroom, gathering a few clothes and documents.

Noel didn't say anything this whole time as if he wasn't interested in the Count's matter. The Count also kept glancing at Noel as if he wanted to make sure of Noel's intention.

But it seemed that Noel didn't plan to say anything. This was good since he could easily pack up all the documents and Noel would simply think it was the noble's documents.

With that thought in mind, he gathered all the documents within ten minutes. During that time, the butler informed the other maids and butlers to spread the news.

In that instant, the mansion and the town were lively again. It was clear that the Count was planning to leave together with them.

The Count would have good protection, so this was their chance to leave. Everyone started packing up their luggage, ready to go.

"Are you still here?" The Count asked Noel while walking outside his office, ready to move to his carriage.

"Yes. After you enter your carriage, I'll immediately go to the gate to check the situation. That way, when you arrive, I'll be able to give you the answer." Noel nodded. He looked professional since he completely escorted the Count.

But Noel was actually the Count's judgment. He had already seen a few red marks, starting from how the guards reacted.

The fact that they could easily be pressured by a person from the Demon Banner Army was huge. If he was an assassin, the Count would have been dead by now.

Then, the Count allowed him to follow him everywhere. He might not give any expression away, but it was clear Noel could easily get all the necessary information about the Count.

Last but not least, Noel could escort the Count all the time. It looked like the Count couldn't judge the situation himself and pushed him away when necessary. These three points made Noel understand what he should do next.

While walking toward the carriage, Noel also noticed something wrong. 'Still, has Anna infiltrated the mansion? There won't be many documents left, but it's clear that there are still some important documents. There might be clues here and there.

'After getting that information, she could easily ambush the Count later since she knows where he's going. I don't understand.

'From the looks of it, Anna has improved so much that I don't need to explain the plan all the time. So, she should be aware of my intention to come here. If she hasn't gone to the mansion yet, does that mean…

'No, wait. What if there is actually a problem?' Noel frowned. He knew Anna must be watching somewhere, but the reason why she couldn't come out must be somewhere around him too.

Noel thought for a moment before raising his head, watching the building around. There were some buildings whose roofs were above the mansion's wall. He could also see a few rooms that were higher than the wall.

When he checked the situation, he noticed something.

'Hmm?' Noel narrowed his eyes, focusing all his attention on one of the roofs. He noticed there was a shadow on top of the roof.

And that shadow actually came out of the hands. In that instant, he recognized that hand.

'Anna?'

That was right. It was Anna's hand. Of course, it wasn't that Anna planned to give her position away.

But since Noel had noticed her, Anna was showing her hand and pointing in a certain direction.

And that direction was the lead to her trouble.

'So, there is a problem in that direction. From the looks of it, I should help her.' Noel contemplated, gathering all the clues he had.

After a while, he came up with a plan. The Count seemed to have reached his carriage as well.

"Then, I'll go ahead." Noel politely talked to the Count.

Satisfied with Noel's performance, the Count nodded. "Go."

As soon as he received permission, Noel turned around and ran toward the exit. The Count only knew that his destination was the gate, but Noel had another plan.

As expected, the moment he came out of the Count's mansion, the one that caused trouble for Anna followed him from above.

Noel didn't turn his head the whole time, making his opponent think he hadn't noticed him yet.

'It seems he's heading to the gate.' The mysterious guy thought while following him on top of the roof. He kept focusing on Noel, but more and more people flooded the street since they wanted to escape together with the Count.

And that was when Noel took the opportunity to disappear inside the crowd.

'Huh?' The guy widened his eyes, shocked. He tried to find Noel but to no avail.

Suddenly, Noel climbed the roof while unsheathing his sword.

"Got him."
