Axel stood near a small mountain range about 5 kilometers away from Ravin City. He had obtained all the branch locations of the Hand of Umbra, along with crucial operational information, secret codes, communication methods, and internal structures from Count Halden.
Inside the largest brown mountain was the branch of the assassin sect. There should be an entrance inside through the western bottom corner. He was wearing an attire typical of an unassuming assassin of that sect. The first thing he needed to do was enter.
It had been exactly 30 hours since the ambush. For a highly capable assassination sect like the Hand of Umbra, some news must have reached it. The Duchess must also have received some news.
