"Why not? I can easily kill them," Emily said. "I just need a well-planted shot."
"There is no need. The missing patrols will already raise some alarms. If we also kill the barrier masters' guards, things will become messier. Let's give them the illusion the barrier masters are safe..."
A Chimaeric Demon nodded. "They will realize only after we destroy the barriers' generators."
That was what Amber was thinking. If they killed the guards, they would need to hide them, which meant increasing the chances they could be found out. There were already too many bodies around left by Emily. Adding some more would just be detrimental.
Besides, each person they killed was a person less that answered to the radio.
The group pressed forward until they arrived a couple of buildings from the target. More bodies marked their path, which they then hid. However, Amber's unease increased.
"In position," she said.
