I raise elves in Florian

Chapter 292 The Empire's Plan 6

"emmm~"

Although Shi Yichen gave Frilian an identical genuine item, Frilian was still unhappy because she had been deceived.

"Indeed, Frilian has never had good taste, and I think junk has its advantages too."

Jane picked up the fake goods that Frilian had bought with her hair, looked at them, and said that ever since she saw Frilian being eaten by the mimic monster, she had begun to doubt Frilian's judgment.

"Your hair smells of blood, and don't be afraid of that pot."

Frilian glanced at Jian Ze's hair with slight disdain and said.

"Oh! That's not true. I washed it thoroughly, it should still smell nice."

Jian Ze looked at her hair and said that she took great care of it. Although she used her hair to kill enemies, she always washed it clean.

"We can cancel it later."

"But there's a high chance we can't get a refund," Philon said, looking at the unhappy Frilian. "The stall owner might have already left by now. After all, it's a fake, so it's no wonder the stall owner would run away."

"What do you think?"

Frilian looked at Shi Yichen and asked if she remembered that Shi Yichen had cast a tracking spell on the coins he gave out, which might be able to find the enemy's lair.

"Of course you can."

Shi Yichen smiled and nodded. She could clearly sense that the person named Gazela had left the original spot and was moving.

“Philan, Shutark, let’s go return the goods now.”

Having received Shi Yichen's affirmative answer, Frilian suddenly stood up and looked at Philon and Shutark.

"Lord Shi Yichen..."

Jian Ze looked at Shi Yichen beside him, hoping that she could keep an eye on Frilian.

"It's okay, we'll be right back."

Shi Yichen reached out and gently ruffled Jian Ze's hair, saying, "Let's go see who the Shadow Warriors are."

"Oh well."

Jian Ze nodded. Since Shi Yichen had said so, she could only nod in agreement. There was nothing she could do, since Shi Yichen was her superior and far more capable than her.

. . . . . .

the other side.

Eight people gathered somewhere in the forest.

"Everyone's here now, let's confirm the details of this mission one last time."

Mercenary Shulite looked at the seven people around her and said that everyone present was a Shadow Warrior, meaning they were there to assassinate Seria at the ball.

The eight people present were:

Wolf, the tavern manager.

Mercenary, Shulite.

Lutine, the librarian.

Iris, a waitress at the liquor store.

Nun, Lorelei.

Father Clementis.

Street vendor, Gazela.

Varos, a homeless man.

"Shulit, one person is missing."

Father Clementis said from the side.

"Old Master Levi must have gone to deal with the guys who are getting in our way. I heard he can move around freely, so it doesn't matter if he's not around."

"Sherlock said to Father Clementis."

"No, I mean the blacksmith didn't come."

The street vendor looked at Shulite speechlessly and reminded her.

Your brother is not here.

Sister Lorelei said with a hint of helplessness, "Can't they see it even though there are only a few of them here?"

"I forgot... I'll contact him later."

Mercenary Shulette waved her hand and said.

. . . . . .

the other side.

Shi Yichen followed the magic she left on the coin, leading Frilian and the others to catch up.

"It seems we've discovered something extraordinary."

Shi Yichen could sense eight slightly stronger auras not far from the forest, and guessed that those people were all Shadow Warriors.

"What's wrong? Did you find them?"

Frillie immediately guessed what Shi Yichen had discovered.

"Yes, there were other gains as well."

Shi Yichen smiled and nodded. He had only come to find the vendor from before, but he hadn't expected them all to gather together.

"Really? Then we'll have to go check it out."

. . . . . .

in the forest.

The eight shadow warriors were still discussing.

"There are eight guards. The hero's mage, Frilian, and Jian Ze are both formidable enemies."

Librarian Lutine looked at the list of eight people in her hand. At the very front were Frilian, Janze, and Falshu, the three strongest guards.

Next are Yubel, Lanto, Philon, and Shutark, and finally Shi Yichen.

"However, I feel like I've seen the name Shi Yichen in a book somewhere before, but I can't remember where I'm from."

The librarian looked at Shi Yichen's portrait and pondered.

"I remember there was a person named Shi Yichen in the hero's group, but more than eighty years have passed and he may be dead."

The vagabond Varos recalled some things from the past, things that others might not know, but he, as a dwarf, certainly did.

The reason he believed Shi Yichen was dead was because human lifespan is very short. Even the hero Simmel had died of old age, so Shi Yichen would naturally be no exception and would also die of old age.

"I saw Frilian and this person named Shi Yichen this morning. They happened to come to my shop to buy something. Luckily, I saw them before I saw the list, otherwise I would have been executed for deserting my post."

"Otherwise, I would have been killed by these people working together," said Gazela, a street vendor, with a look of relief.

"Hey! Are they really that strong?"

The waitress at the liquor store, Iris, asked Gazela with a smile.

"Although he didn't make a move, the person named Shi Yichen gave me the feeling of being an ordinary person."

The street vendor recalled his encounter with Shi Yichen and had an indescribable feeling, but no matter how you looked at him, he was just an ordinary person.

"Is he an ordinary person? It's best to be careful."

Mercenary Shulite believed Gazela's words, but she still thought it best to be careful regardless of the strength of her opponent.

“That’s true, but the key issue is Celia. She said that the magicians who have existed since the age of mythology, that Lord Levi, can really deal with those monsters? I don’t want to die for someone else’s daydream.”

Street vendor Gazela expressed skepticism, because he couldn't imagine how they could do this to solve Celia's problem.

"I didn't believe it at first either."

Mercenary Shulite took something out of her pocket and threw it at Gazela.

"what?"

Gazera caught it instinctively.

"The master left it here with me, and I couldn't believe it until I saw this."

"Shulit said to Gazela."

"The Scepter of Holy Authority".

Gazela recognized the pendant immediately; it was exactly the same as Frilian's Holy Staff.

"You usually run a business of swindling magicians, so you should know whose stuff this is without even needing to know."

Shulite believed that Gazela knew who the Holy Staff belonged to.

"Great Magician, Minus."
