Chapter 329 'Ass'assination

"Hearing what Shiro had just said, Keomi widened her eyes in excitement.

"Wait what? We can go assassinate him?" Keomi asked with delight.

"Yup. During the fight, I managed to put a tracker on his body so that we can find him after he leaves. After all, B class adventurers are quite troublesome to kill on the first attempt." Shiro smiled.

"But that being said, I'm not too sure about his location so do you recognise this place?"

Giving the tablet to Keomi, Shiro waited for her response.

"Hmm….. from what I can tell, this should be the watchtower in the northern borders. It's quite close to the third prince's camp so we might want to be careful." Keomi furrowed her brows.

"That's fine. If we do get into a fight with him as well, we might as well take him out in the process." Shiro chuckled.

"Eh? How? Isn't the third prince supposed to be one of the more annoying ones with his domain magic? With the sheer amount of domains he has, I have to admit that even I might have a hard time dealing with him if he has some help." Keomi shook her head.

"Don't worry about that. If we are forced to fight him, I can stop his domains with this."

Pulling out the sealing incantation that she had stolen from the god's pantheon, Shiro showed Keomi its description.

"Wait isn't that what the God's Pantheon was supposed to have? Did you steal from them too?"

"*cough* I wouldn't say 'steal'. It's just long term borrowing for the bigger picture. After all, they're enemies with the third prince too." Shiro coughed shamelessly.

Yin rolled her eyes with disdain while making sure that they were out of sight from everyone underneath them. It would be quite problematic if they were spotted.

"Anyways, let's see where everyone else is. I don't want them to be near the place when we fight."

Swiping the screen on the tablet, Shiro saw that group 1, Silvia, Chen Yu and Madison, were currently in combat near the auction hall while group 2, Aarim Lyrica and Lisandra, were fleeing one of the main battlefields.

'Seems like they've just finished a battle.' Shiro thought to herself since the earpiece could detect their vitals. It was also able to estimate their mana capacity but that was a slight work in progress so it wasn't too accurate.

Since group 1 was in combat and they weren't too far, Shiro decided to have Yin fly them closer. She wanted them to be out of danger before giving them their next orders.

"Are we not going to kill Morthil?" Keomi asked when she noticed that they were moving away from the northern borders.

"Not yet, I'm going to help out group 1 then have them regroup with the other group. The fight's starting to escalate in danger since the B class adventurers are starting to make a move."

Gesturing for Yin to go towards the auction house, Shiro opened the rift to increase their travel speed.

Once they arrived at the location, they were slightly surprised at how well they were standing up to a level 100.

With Madison as tank and Silvia constantly healing her, they were able to keep the level 100 at bay. Naturally, the enemy tried to get Silvia but Chen Yu would come in and pull her away.

"The situation's a bit messy but they're holding their own against the level 100." Shiro muttered while debating on whether or not she should come in and steal the kill. If they managed to finish him off, they'll be able to get more EXP and it'll feel more earned. If she came in now and took the kill, it would be less productive.

"Let's watch for now. I want to see what they can do with the current situation."

"Really? I mean, wouldn't making sure that they survive be more important?" Keomi asked curiously.

"Yes, but I trust that they can do this. If I don't help, their growth will be much bigger."

". . . I suppose so." Keomi nodded. While she did agree that gaining experience on the battlefield is good and that the most experience comes from life and death, it was still a risk to have them go through that. Especially when the target is your friend.

"Don't worry though. I'll make sure they survive." Shiro smiled since she understood what Keomi was worried about.

As the fight progressed, the amount of healing that Silvia could provide slowly decreased since the level 100 started to take things a little more seriously. From what Shiro could see, there were traces of l.u.s.t on his face as he was clearly intent on taking both Madison and Silvia for himself by whittling their mana down instead of outright killing them.

This caused Shiro to want to make a move but seeing the anger in Chen Yu's eyes, she held herself back.

###

"Silvi, this isn't looking too good. I want you to give me every buff you can before running away with Madison. I'll keep him occupied. In that time, try to find Shiro." Chen Yu whispered in seriousness.

"Eh? What do you mean! If you dare take him on alone I swear to god I'll make your life a living hell!" Silvia replied through gritted teeth.

She wasn't stupid. She knew what he was implying and that was the last thing that she wanted.

"Trust me Silvi, I wish I can do something else but as it stands, none of us will have a good ending if this continues. We can't send a message to Shiro either since she never told us on how to use the earpiece. If I take him on alone, there's a good chance that you two might be able to escape and even find Shiro if we're lucky."

"I don't give a sh*t! I will bludgeon him to death if I need to. I've already had to sit through my party being killed in front of me. I will not sit through that again." Silvia glared at him.

Pushing him aside, Silvia pulled out an item that she had been saving for a while.

This item would temporarily allow her to break past her limits and have power equivalent to a level 100. However, since she was a healer, this would only prolong their survival for a while.

Once the backlash kicked in, they would be good as dead.

'I would die anyways if I don't use this. Might as well go out with a bang.' She thought to herself.

{Silvia, can you hear me? Don't speak. I saw the description of your item, don't use it since I'm nearby. Are you able to handle it? If you want me to come in and end everything, nod your head. If you want me to watch for a little longer and see if Madison and Chen Yu can break their limits, shake your head. Just know that I'm nearby so I won't let any of you die.} Shiro said over a private channel.

Hearing what she said, Silvia hesitated for a moment before shaking her head.

There will be moments where they'll be in danger and Shiro can't come to help. They should get used to not having someone insanely powerful as Shiro so that they can develop themselves more.

{If that's what you want. But remember, try not to use the item if you can and fight without the help of external sources. Since I'm here, your safety is guaranteed.}

Nodding her head in appreciation, Silvia stored the item away.

"Yu." She called out.

"Yeah?"

"Remember what Shiro said? How one doesn't tense their a** in a fight? Go for that weak point and don't give him a chance. Now that he has his guard down, we need to finish him off." She whispered as Chen Yu paused in mild shock.

Taking a deep breath, he nodded.

"How much are you able to buff me? I'll try to finish him off."

Slamming her staff down, several tier 3 magic circles flashed around Silvia and wrapped around Chen Yu.

"Mark of the Saint!" Silvia commanded. This was her secondary berserk buff that would increase a targets stats by 20% along with several boosts such as crit chance, crit damage and armour penetration.

Feeling the power flowing through his body, Chen Yu flickered into the shadows and dashed towards the enemy.

"Heh? You trying the same tactic?" The man smirked since Chen Yu had tried to stab him in the back and neck several times but to no avail.

Setting up a barrier around his neck once more, he continued to focus on whittling Madison's health and mana down.

However, he wasn't prepared for Chen Yu to go for something else.

"This makes the word 'ass'assination way to literal." He muttered.

Twirling his dagger, he used all of his skills and stabbed towards the level 100's rear.
