The dark Elves have already come, Dayan saw Ebony and Dara then he gestured them to come and sit beside him. But Dara went and stood behind him like guard, her back was straight and her gaze piercing.
" Lelenia. I need you and your men to go to the armory to equip your self and come back with her armor..." said Dayan while pointing at Dara. "... do it stealthily, tonight we will destroy this town. Do you have an opinion." It wasn't a question judging by his tone.
" No my lord." Lelenia said with while gritting her teeth. She didn't fear the slaver mark killing her because it has already disappeared when she vowed, a personne without crux can't be enslaved. The fact of giving away her crux was a way for her to break her chains.
" Oh I forgot to tell you, depending of this operation, I will decide if I will ad you to my knight corps or just keep you as disposable tools." said Dayan with a mocking grin but his eyes stayed cold.
" We won't disappoint you my lord." Lelenia hated this man even more but she could do nothing so she just grit her teeth even harder. She never felt this vulnerable before.
" Go take equipment, only useful ones. and report in 20 minutes." " Aye!!" the dark elves all disappeared in a whoosh, they were agile while using all their strength but only wind could be heard and not their steps.
This made Dayan think about his shortcomings. His body was like a clean white peace of paper and he needed to print on it his skills. Because even a great sword in the hands of a child is very less dangerous than a toothpick in the hands of an expert.
He had decided that after this operation he needed time to train in his skills. this was an headache.
" Dara tell me why are those Dark elves here." " My lord they are a suicide squad that the Magus tower sent to assist Baron Sermon to defend this region against the attacks of beast and Elves." Dara didn't say it but you could read it in her eyes that she was impressed to see those unyielding dark elves obeying her lord and master.
" Hmm tell me about the situation here." " My lord this is military city created as base to assist the exploration of the uncharted lands but we are not the only kingdom, there is also the kingdom of elves that have their base a hundred kilometers from here. Those despicable elves."
I had already figured it out, in this city there are only adventurers and soldier although you can see some merchant but due to the undeveloped road system and danger on the way they are not that much. My plan of massacring everyone won't work because 90% of the population are fighters unless I poison all of them, but I don't have that much poison.
I think I should just kill the officials and take as much wealth as possible, do I have an inventory? yes, the orc corps is even there. After that I will go(run away) in another kingdom and establish my organisation. Seems like a plan.
Ebony was curled beside me and seemed very comfortable. then the dark elves came back. They wore black light armor and looked like real assassins, it seems like the Magus tower sent them with their armor to maximize the efficiency.
" My lord, Lelenia and team reports back ." Lelenia was kneeling she had a different atmosphere around her, she seemed devoid of emotion and she was not swayed by her emotions.
" Good Lelenia, Tell me, who are you not able to kill in this town?". she seemed to ponder then she respond. " You my lord, you are the only person I can't kill."
" Good I will give you and your team 5 hour to kill all the officials of this city and make sure to leave evidence, and I want you t mislead the investigation that it is elves who did it." Dayan wanted to test the efficiency of this group.
" As you wish my lord." Then they disappeared in a whoosh.
" Dara I think that you brokethrough , use this time to stabilize your energie flow."
" My lord is very thoughtful, I will do so right away."
now it was time to navigate the 'knowledge of the world' .
Dayan sat on the bed in the lotus position and began to concentrate, little by little he felt his consciousness and strangely he felt a connection to a place. Like a little tread. He strengthened his connection little by little and he felt a 'plop' and he felt like a flow of information entered his consciousness, those information concerned how to better his manipulation over his consciousness.
He began to digest those informations and after a while his consciousness was well collected, before it looked like a fog but now it was more like little orb of gas.
Now he understood the consciousness better and he could faintly perceive his surrounding. He felt something beside him, he felt it faintly. He decided to approach it when he made contact with it a new flow of information entered his consciousness but this time he felt overwhelmed and was forced to exist.
He opened his eyes and he was sweating. he seemed exhausted and drained. ' this is pretty difficult...' the system interrupted his flow of thought with a notification.
" *Ding* Envoy of the faceless god entered the pool of knowledge, due to it being your first time you can chose any knowledge you want but from the second time it will all depend on the strength of your soul structure...You gained knowledge on ' art of perfect secretary'...This art was created by the man who was the strongest, he was not pleased with the performance of his secretary so he created this art and in the end his secretary became the second strongest person in the continent. the contents are do it into..." Dayan didn't pay any attention to the rest of the notification, at first he thought that he wasted his chance when he hear what this art did to the secretary, an idea popped into his head. And if he nurtured his own secretary, He wanted to create an organisation so it was normal that he needed a secretary.
But who should he take. After a little thinking he decided to give this art to Ebony, because she lacked in many thing that this art will complete for her.
He called Ebony and told her to sit before him then he put his hand on her forehead and they both closed their eyes. He was using his consciousness to transfer knowledge. Before he could do it in a few hours but now he can do it in a dozen of minutes.
After he finished the assassins came back and kneeled before Dayan and waited for him to finish.
Dayan was a little surprise before he didn't think they would finish this soon it has only been 2 hours.
"You did well, Next I am going to buy a carriage and we will meet outside the town. we are heading to the south today." It was still afternoon. so he had time to prepare. Dayan used the money the Lelenia team brought back and ordered them to go buying the necessities, he wasn't afraid of them being noticed because he knew assassins could always find ways.
He decided to change his blood stained shirt into a black loose one. He didn't have a weapon and didn't intend to have one for the time being. Dara wore he armor and put on the helmet to cover her face. she was pretty famous in this town and had quite a pretty face.
