Chapter 121: The Mission [1]

Amon jumped down, landing silently on the balcony.

Unfortunately, the guard was sharp and quickly looked to his right.

But to his dismay, there was no one.

And in the next second, his eyes widened.

He swerved back but wasn't quick enough as the sharp edge of a crimson dagger thrust in his eye.

His hands shot to the neck of the attacker.

But they limped down as the dagger passed through his brain, ending his life.

The guard's lifeless body was about to slump down but Amon quickly grabbed him.

Then he silently set him down into a dark corner.

As he looked into the distance from the balcony, he saw Alya doing a thumbs up at him.

She was currently looking at him from a window in the second floor of the building they were previously standing at.

He peered down below from the balcony.

And as he expected, two lifeless bodies of the guards rested against the wall, a single arrow embedded in each forehead.
