Basang looked at the giant wolf shadow beneath Ivita's feet and gave a bitter smile. "So that's how it is."
"I was overthinking it."
Hearthstone Grand Witch said to Ivita: "Your Majesty, his energy is gradually declining because his strength is dissipating."
"He's about to fall from the ranks of second-grade official assassins and become a trainee assassin."
"Moreover, he's essentially betrayed the Little Brotherhood, his former colleagues will hunt him."
"However, Your Highness, the Little Brotherhood has a rule that they never assassinate a target more than once."
"Unless they change employers."
"Your Majesty, you do not need to worry about dealing with the people from the Little Brotherhood in the short term."
Ivita nodded, then turned to look at Basang, whose movements had slowed considerably, and abruptly said, "Because you didn't attack me, you shattered your own beliefs."
