Chapter 688: Snake and Rat

As night fell, the brother and sister left the inn and returned to the inn to rest.

"Brother, someone is deliberately guiding those adventurers. Should we stop them?" The silver-haired girl took off her cloak, revealing her delicate face, sat on the bed, tilted her head, and asked curiously.

The black-haired boy sat next to the silver-haired girl, reached out and gently touched her head, and said in a gentle tone: "Shira, we can't get involved in this matter."

"Brother, why is this?"

Shira blinked and looked at her brother with a silly face, as if puzzled by his answer.

Looking at his sister's silly expression, the black-haired boy couldn't help laughing, but did not answer her question directly, but comforted her lovingly: "Be good, don't think too much, I'll take you to eat roasted popcorn later."

"Really."

When it comes to this issue, the silver-haired girl's eyes shined, and she couldn't wait to look at her brother.

...

In a small town outside the city of Obra, a three-tailed cat jumped onto a tree with a mouse in its mouth, ready to enjoy the food.

A black shadow broke away from the shadow of the three-tailed cat, entered the courtyard, and sneaked underground.

In a cave a hundred meters below the courtyard, a shadow assassin wearing a cat-faced mask closed his eyes to rest and restore his magic power.

Feeling the fluctuations coming from above the cave, the shadow assassin wearing a cat-faced mask suddenly opened his eyes, pulled out a short blade with his right hand, and captured the man with his bare hands.

"Captain, it's me."

Hearing the familiar voice, the shadow assassin with a cat-faced mask did not put down the short blade in his hand. With suspicion in his eyes, he asked: "Tomorrow afternoon is the agreed time, why are you back now?"

"Captain, I found important information, so I came back early." Looking at the short blade against his neck, the shadow assassin swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Tell me, what have you found out?"

"Captain, this morning, when I was attached to the shadow of a crow and landed on the wall of a small courtyard, I accidentally discovered that the daughter of Count Obra was secretly meeting her lover. When the two were doing it, they accidentally revealed an important piece of information."

The cat-faced masked shadow assassin retracted the short blade, but did not let down his guard. He sat sideways on the wooden chair and asked, "Go ahead."

Seeing this, the shadow assassin came to sit opposite the captain, poured a cup of hot tea to calm his nerves, and then began to report: "Captain, the daughter of Count Obra was... well, it should be after the work was done. She was lying in the arms of that man and accidentally mentioned that the Beast God Church sent a beast-making force that was good at hiding to sneak into the Stovia region to assassinate the master and Lord Kyle. "

Hearing this, the cat-faced masked shadow assassin narrowed his eyes and said, "Do you know the strength of those assassins?"

"I don't know."

Thinking for a while, the cat-faced masked shadow assassin finally gave up going back to report in person, looked up at his subordinate, and ordered: "You will immediately return to Solomon Province in the Stovia Region to report to Lord Kyle."

"Yes, Captain."

...

In a manor north of Obra City, a woman dressed in seductive clothes entered the study, looked at the middle-aged man sitting on the upper seat, bowed her head and saluted, and said: "Father, the news has spread."

"Have you dealt with your lover?" Earl Coleridge Obra looked at his illegitimate daughter and asked expressionlessly.

The seductive woman smiled gently and said softly: "It has been handled. It should be digested by the Obra bear now."

"Finish it well. Once this matter is exposed, the Beast God Church will not let our Obra family go." Coleridge's expression eased a little, looking at his daughter and said.

"Father, don't worry. In Obra City, apart from the spy, only you and your daughter know about this matter." The seductive woman replied respectfully.

Thinking of the succubus blood in his illegitimate daughter, Coleridge hesitated and said: "More and more adventurers are pouring into the border. You should restrain yourself in the near future."

"I know, father."

Looking at his daughter's back as she left, Coleridge looked down at the administrative plan of Obra City on the desk, and his thoughts drifted away.

Unlike the nobles who were drunk and dreaming in the inland of the kingdom, the Obra family always maintained a sense of crisis at the border.

Recalling the power of the sky city five months ago, Coleridge's body couldn't help trembling.

Fighting against such an army, he thought there was no chance of winning.

He could either surrender to the enemy openly or secretly, but he didn't dare to gamble the lives of thousands of people in his family on whether the Beast God Church would find out.

After thinking it over again and again, he came up with this method.

In Obra City, no one didn't know about his daughter's affairs, so he would make a fuss about it, and even if he was discovered, he could push her out.

In addition, for the stability of the Earldom of Obra City, he believed that the Beast God Church would not touch him casually.

"After all, I have become the person I hate the most."

When he was young, he hated people who played both sides and bet on both sides.

More than a hundred years later, he slowly understood why those people did this.

...

At nine o'clock the next morning, the sun shone through the gaps in the tent and fell on the ground, forming patches of mottled light and shadow.

Kyle sat in a chair with a calm face, listening to the report of the shadow assassin.

When the shadow assassin finished the last sentence, Kyle narrowed his eyes slightly, a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he murmured to himself: "Interesting, he can actually release kindness in this way, I have learned something new."

The shadow assassin who was kneeling in the tent was very confused when he heard Kyle's words, but he did not dare to ask the reason.

"Tell Cat Face when you go back and let her tentatively contact the Earl of Obra City."

"Yes, Lord Kyle."

Kyle took out three low-level magic crystals and sent them to the shadow assassin, saying: "This is your reward."

The shadow assassin stretched out his hands to catch the three low-level magic crystals, and was very excited. He thanked respectfully: "Thank you, Lord."

"You can go down."

"Yes, Lord."

After the shadow assassin left, Kyle left the tent and went to the tent where his master was to report the matter.

Inside the tent, Weilin leaned back in the chair and said with interest: "It's really interesting. I'm looking forward to where the assassins sent by the Beast God Church are hiding."

"My Lord, I think there are only three possible places to get close to you." Kyle said after hearing this.

"Tell me about it."

"First, the vassal soldiers."

"Second, the hard labor manager."

"Third, the spy."

"Hahaha, you're right. If you want to get close to me, there are only three most likely ways." Weilin looked at Kyle and laughed, "You arrange this matter. Try to capture them alive if you can."

"Yes, my Lord."
