When dawn broke, Adeline was already up. She set off towards the intelligence guild with a sense of urgency. Every moment counted, she needed to get her hands on that information and get evidence on that man!
When she reached the entrance, she was greeted by that very same man again. She was a VIP she didn't have to keep saying the code. There was only one person in the entire continent with pink hair. And it was the boss's daughter!
Looking around, the shop was empty as ever, she came across the sign again. A secret for a secret... But this time she stayed strong and was prepared. Even though the guilt nagged at her, repeating over and over again that she stole the position of Adeline...
She ignored it and kept her head high.
In the inner chamber, Adeline was handed a thick file containing Alice's entire life story, including an assassination report. She felt a chill run down her spine.
