Chapter 54 – Assassination Family Raven (12)
Seeing Princess Rosette quickly collecting valuable items from her desk, I could see how much she wanted to escape from the life of the Raven family.
Kwa-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-gak!!!
When Princess Rosette came out of her office with a small bag full of things, her matriarch’s feelings began to fall apart.
The people of the Raven family tried to do so, but the people of the Crow family, especially those who could be said to be reformers, did not seem to know what to do.
Will the Raven family be back to normal if I leave for a short time and come back? Definitely not.
If you dream of a primitive return, it might happen.
But when I saw that overwhelming power, I felt a bit of a sense of victory.
If I continue to strengthen my Shadow Mastery, does that mean I can have that kind of power?
Tentacles or something difficult to define as thorns began to wriggle and spread out, encroaching on Raven Mansion.
The direction of the encroachment is the Crow family mansion next door.
“Princess, let’s piggyback on her.”
“Yes. It’s dangerous if you don’t go quickly.”
The princess jumped on my back without hesitation and I quickly escaped from the Raven Mansion.
Quaaaaa! Kwakagagak!
At the entrance, quite a few servants of the Raven family had come out and were staring blankly at the destruction being done by Terrance Raven.
The huge mouth of the shadow began to move forward, chewing the mansion.
People from the Crow family noticed the incident and began to escape, but shadows began to rise up from the floor at random, as if they would not miss the people there.
‘Could it be that the Demon King is Terrance Raven?’
I guess that will stop, right?
First, he decided to go out on a path of revenge with the princess on his back.
People waiting on this street saw the commotion at the Raven Mansion and watched in silence. Then, when they saw me, someone shouted.
“Sea Raven and the royal family!”
“You must hide your identity. Keep your head down.”
“Yes… !”
It was an assassin from the Raven family who committed the murder, but the person who permitted the murder was the royal family.
Since they would be weaker than those of the Raven family, they would be easy targets for revenge.
I went into the forest and used Yeongtu (影套) to roughly cover the princess with a shadow.
It’s not at the level of being assimilated into the darkness, but it’s enough to cover the face of her.
The princess also heard earlier that she had to hide her identity, so she curled her hair in front of her body so that her figure was not clearly visible.
Her shoes are a bit feminine, but other than that, she’s wearing pants, so you can’t really tell that she’s a woman.
Carrying the princess on her back, she ran on the path of revenge.
“Catch it!”
“That guy allowed me to kill him!”
The strength of the princess’s arms around me became a little stronger.
I was aware of the act of killing someone just by reading the text, but this was probably the first time I was directly faced with the anger it caused.
“The person I chose deserved to die…”
The princess spoke quietly, so only I could hear.
Everyone whom Princess Rosette targeted for assassination certainly deserved to die.
As the Holy Kingdom’s paladin told me, there were so many people who deserved to die that I thought escaping to death was a light punishment.
Among the people who came after us, the ones with the most skills followed me quickly.
No matter how strong Sea Raven is, she is still slow at running with just one person on her back.
It’s a pity that I can’t use shadow magic.
“I will kill you both!!!”
“Xian. Are you running away to hide my identity?”
Princess Rose, who heard a voice full of hatred toward us, spoke in a voice that did not have much of a difference in pitch.
“Yes, that’s right.”
“If House Raven becomes disorganized, the path to vengeance here will no longer work, right?”
“It will probably be difficult. It seems that the head of the family wants to leave the hands of the royal family.”
The matriarch is still destroying the Crow family. I don’t know how long I’ll die?
You must be wondering what the hell is going on with the intelligence agents who are dispatched to branch offices to collect information.
“Then don’t avoid it. Kill everyone who follows Xian.”
“I will.”
As she turned her running body, she let go of the princess’s thigh.
At that moment, I heard the princess let go of her neck and roll down her back, but I decided to kill the enemy in front of her first.
Shadow Craft.
I created a sharp long sword made of shadows and ran.
“Xian raveuuuuun!!!”
It is said that one of the people who was chasing us caught up with me because she had good physical strength, but she just caught up with me while I was running with the princess on her back.
As I ran, he struck me with a sharp hatchet, and I used Shadow Armor on my left shoulder to condense the shadows to block the attack, then stabbed my heart.
“Gagging…?!”
“I told you several times to go back home. If you don’t protect your life and burn it on the path of revenge, I will burn it.”
He let go of the sword that had stabbed his heart and kicked the man, pushing him.
When the man fell to the floor, the sword he made first disappeared, and he made a sword again using Shadow Craft.
Of the five people running towards me, the three in front stopped and two started running away.
Next time I create the Raven family again, I hope there is no path for revenge.
The man standing in front shouted, extending his left hand, clenched into a fist, towards me.
“Flame!”
Flames spewed out at me from the ring, and I used Shadow Armor to block the flames.
You can feel the heat, but you can sufficiently prevent direct contact.
When I finished using the magic tool, I released the shadow armor and the remaining heat disappeared in an instant.
Cyan Raven is a skill that can be used like breathing, but if you think about it, I think it is an incredible skill.
How long will it take Yusian to learn these?
It’s not time to go back yet, so let’s postpone those thoughts until later.
“That monster!!!”
The magic tool rushed at me with a dagger, probably disposable, but swung the sword first.
Seokgeuk
He cut off the right wrist that was holding the dagger and stabbed the defenseless chest of the enemy with a sword made of shadow.
This is the second person.
The remaining two people exchanged glances with each other and then rushed at the same time.
“Aaaaah!!!”
“Die!!!”
Seeing that empty figure, I used Shadow Craft to create daggers in both hands and threw them.
Those guys who saw me covered my chest with their swords and shields, but they were in the wrong place to block.
Plop, Plop
A dagger made of shadows was stuck in the foreheads of the two people and then disappeared.
I feel bad about the two people who ran away, but if I send the princess back to the castle, there will be no problem.
When she looked behind her, she caught a glimpse of the princess hiding behind a tree, cleaning up the dirt on her pants.
“It’s over.”
“Really? It’s fast as expected.”
It answered, but since it didn’t pull itself out of the tree, it seemed like it didn’t want to see the body I had killed.
Seeing the corpse of someone who died because of your orders wouldn’t help.
There are two corpses bleeding from the heart and two corpses with their foreheads pierced.
I approached the tree and spoke to Princess Rose.
“Do you want me to pick you up?”
“I think I can walk now, so I’ll walk.”
The dirt on the front was brushed off, but traces of dirt remained on his golden hair and back.
“Princess, please excuse me for a moment.”
I didn’t think touching her body would work, so I lifted her hair slightly and brushed off the dirt.
“Ah. Thank you.”
“It happened because of me.”
I walked a little distance with Princess Rosette to the starting point of the path of revenge.
There were quite a few people from the Crow family at the starting point, and when they saw that we were the first to get out of the path of revenge, they came running over to us.
“Sir, what on earth happened at your home?”
“The Crow family told me that Terrance Raven, the matriarch, went on a rampage. Is that correct?”
“The matriarch is just cutting out the festering part. The Crow family’s intelligence agents will continue their mission of information gathering as usual, and the Raven family’s assassin will stop working for a while. Instead, he will be able to make contact with the Crow family’s agents. Take action… The Raven family won’t listen to me.”
I thought that there was no way my words would work against the assassins of the same age as Kairendal and Kaela, as well as the person above them.
At that time, Princess Rosette came forward and said something.
“I will convey this to everyone in the name of Rosette Yurisian. I will not grant assassination permission to the Raven family for the time being.”
“I will pass it on that way.”
“Then what are you going to do, Xian?”
“I also plan to take a break. I had missions in a row.”
It took a long time to return to Seongguk’s mission, but in any case, if you count it as a mission until the return, it is no different from doing it one after another.
One thing I didn’t do, it was Cian Raven, but no one else knows.
“What does the princess plan to do? She thinks it is best to return to the imperial castle.”
When I said that to Princess Rosette, she shook her head slightly.
“I want to see something good. The Crow family says they will give me a variety of information, but in the end, what I need to look deeply at is information about people who deserve to die. Can I hide my identity for a moment and wander around outside?”
It was definitely worth the mental rush.
Because after checking how many evil deeds a wicked person has committed, he or she will die depending on the choice he or she makes.
If you think about it, wasn’t the head of the family’s order to ask me to be the princess taking this into consideration? The person who is crazy about that murder? Probably not.
After thinking for a moment about the matriarch still wreaking havoc in the distance, I had no choice but to change my course of action.
“Then, I will also accompany the princess. Is there a way to hide her identity as the princess?”
“I think I can hide my hair color by using a magic tool for disguise. If I wear clothes sold in the village, I think I can sufficiently hide my identity as Princess Rosette.”
“Xian, where should we go?”
Princess Rosette’s voice brightened as if she was already happy at the thought of going around hiding her identity while the sounds of destruction could still be heard from afar.
If you travel with the princess while hiding her identity, it seems like it will be difficult to become strong in this world for a while, right?
That thought occurred to me for a moment, but I got stronger by clearing quests, so I can get stronger again by walking around with the princess and receiving quests.
In addition, I found out someone who would be full of quests early in the morning.
Roman’s hero party, should we go there if possible?
