Chapter 329 'Ass'assination

"Hearing what Shiro had just said, Keomi widened her eyes in excitement.

"Wait what? We can go assassinate him?" Keomi asked with delight.

"Yup. During the fight, I managed to put a tracker on his body so that we can find him after he leaves. After all, B class adventurers are quite troublesome to kill on the first attempt." Shiro smiled.

"But that being said, I’m not too sure about his location so do you recognise this place?"

Giving the tablet to Keomi, Shiro waited for her response.

"Hmm..... from what I can tell, this should be the watchtower in the northern borders. It’s quite close to the third prince’s camp so we might want to be careful." Keomi furrowed her brows.

"That’s fine. If we do get into a fight with him as well, we might as well take him out in the process." Shiro chuckled.

"Eh? How? Isn’t the third prince supposed to be one of the more annoying ones with his domain magic? With the sheer amount of domains he has, I have to admit that even I might have a hard time dealing with him if he has some help." Keomi shook her head.

"Don’t worry about that. If we are forced to fight him, I can stop his domains with this."

Pulling out the sealing incantation that she had stolen from the god’s pantheon, Shiro showed Keomi its description.

"Wait isn’t that what the God’s Pantheon was supposed to have? Did you steal from them too?"

"*cough* I wouldn’t say ’steal’. It’s just long term borrowing for the bigger picture. After all, they’re enemies with the third prince too." Shiro coughed shamelessly.

Yin rolled her eyes with disdain while making sure that they were out of sight from everyone underneath them. It would be quite problematic if they were spotted.

"Anyways, let’s see where everyone else is. I don’t want them to be near the place when we fight."

Swiping the screen on the tablet, Shiro saw that group 1, Silvia, Chen Yu and Madison, were currently in combat near the auction hall while group 2, Aarim Lyrica and Lisandra, were fleeing one of the main battlefields.

’Seems like they’ve just finished a battle.’ Shiro thought to herself since the earpiece could detect their vitals. It was also able to estimate their mana capacity but that was a slight work in progress so it wasn’t too accurate.

Since group 1 was in combat and they weren’t too far, Shiro decided to have Yin fly them closer. She wanted them to be out of danger before giving them their next orders.

"Are we not going to kill Morthil?" Keomi asked when she noticed that they were moving away from the northern borders.

"Not yet, I’m going to help out group 1 then have them regroup with the other group. The fight’s starting to escalate in danger since the B class adventurers are starting to make a move."

Gesturing for Yin to go towards the auction house, Shiro opened the rift to increase their travel speed.

Once they arrived at the location, they were slightly surprised at how well they were standing up to a level 100.

With Madison as tank and Silvia constantly healing her, they were able to keep the level 100 at bay. Naturally, the enemy tried to get Silvia but Chen Yu would come in and pull her away.

"The situation’s a bit messy but they’re holding their own against the level 100." Shiro muttered while debating on whether or not she should come in and steal the kill. If they managed to finish him off, they’ll be able to get more EXP and it’ll feel more earned. If she came in now and took the kill, it would be less productive.

"Let’s watch for now. I want to see what they can do with the current situation."

"Really? I mean, wouldn’t making sure that they survive be more important?" Keomi asked curiously.

"Yes, but I trust that they can do this. If I don’t help, their growth will be much bigger."

". . . I suppose so." Keomi nodded. While she did agree that gaining experience on the battlefield is good and that the most experience comes from life and death, it was still a risk to have them go through that. Especially when the target is your friend.

"Don’t worry though. I’ll make sure they survive." Shiro smiled since she understood what Keomi was worried about.

As the fight progressed, the amount of healing that Silvia could provide slowly decreased since the level 100 started to take things a little more seriously. From what Shiro could see, there were traces of l.u.s.t on his face as he was clearly intent on taking both Madison and Silvia for himself by whittling their mana down instead of outright killing them.

This caused Shiro to want to make a move but seeing the anger in Chen Yu’s eyes, she held herself back.
