Night fell.
Arendelle's port area was still bustling with activity. Since the opening of the southern route, the kingdom's trade had increased by at least 30%. As one of the few kingdoms that had not been invaded, Arendelle had become the first choice of many merchants. Some had even secretly moved their family properties to settle down here. Princess Royal's powerful strength was a form of protection. As long as Arendelle had Princess Royal, no one would dare to provoke Arendelle.
In a dark alley.
Two sneaky figures were approaching. They showed each other something and then quickly went into the alley next to them.
"The eldest son of the Thorned Flower Grand Duke is on his way here."
A gloomy looking man leaned forward and slowly said, "Our undercover agent is among his group. We can get their movements at any time."
"What is Second Prince's plan?"
The other person was a middle-aged aristocrat with a scholarly look. However, his expression was somewhat gloomy. He reached out with his hand and made a throat-slitting gesture. He said in a deep voice, "Can we kill him?"
The gloomy looking man hesitated and slowly said, "It will be difficult. The eldest son of the Thorned Flower Grand Duke has a very powerful wizard beside him. "
"If we kill him, I'm afraid we will have to suffer a lot of casualties."
"Besides …"
"If we do that, won't we anger Princess Royal of Arendelle? Her strength is unfathomable. Even the Shadow Thieves do not dare to offend her! "
The middle-aged aristocrat glanced at him and said in a deep voice, "As long as we kill him before he arrives in Arendelle, there will be no problems."
"Once he arrives in Arendelle, he will naturally be under the protection of Princess Royal. Princess Royal will not allow others to assassinate her guests in her territory. This is a provocation to her dignity. However, if he is killed before he arrives in Arendelle, it will have nothing to do with her. "
"The second son of the Thorned Flower Grand Duke has died. The third son is a good-for-nothing. The fourth son is still quite young."
"If we can kill his eldest son! Then … "
At this point, he couldn't help but chuckle. Clearly, the other party already knew the result.
The gloomy man hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, "I can contact the Assassins, but I'm not sure if I'll succeed. They're asking for a high price! "
The middle-aged noble nodded and said, "No problem. I'll transfer the funds to you immediately. "
The night gradually deepened.
The two of them chatted for a long time before leaving in different directions. One of them entered the tavern, while the other returned to the residence of the second prince of the Falcon Kingdom.
…
Southern Duchy, Wind Spear Hills Territory.
In an exquisitely decorated mansion, a group of young noble men and women were holding a banquet.
Exquisite pastries were placed on the long table, and the bards of the tavern were invited to perform here. The focus of the audience was a beautiful woman with long blonde hair. The young nobles were trying their best to show off their strengths in front of her like peacocks courting a mate. From time to time, the other noblewomen would look at her with envy and jealousy. However, when they saw her beauty and the incomparably expensive jewelry she wore, they couldn't help but reveal a trace of frustration.
Young, beautiful, rich.
With a noble birth and excellent bloodline, the woman in front of them had become the target of the nobles of the Southern Duchy since she appeared.
Arendelle was Princess Anna's best friend, a distinguished guest of the royal court, and had her own chamber of commerce.
Adele Isabella looked at everything in front of her with boredom. In her opinion, the flaunting of these nobles was so ridiculous. Apart from the gifts left by their fathers, many of them were ignorant and incompetent people. Especially those who wanted to show off their martial arts in front of her. She could even easily deal with them all with one hand. At this moment, her appearance was very different from before. She was a woman who was good at learning and smart enough.
With simple training, she had grasped everything a noble woman should know.
Her hair had turned a beautiful golden color, and her expression was always graceful and elegant with a decent smile. Occasionally, her gaze would fall on a noble, and they would immediately become excited. No one could guess what she was thinking. Although she had been in and out of various banquets during this time, she had maintained a good relationship with everyone.
There were many noble children who wanted to win her heart, but no one knew that all of this was a joke in her eyes.
"My dear sister."
Rafis Isabella, who should be her cousin in name, came over. He was a young and handsome man with long blond hair. He had inherited the excellent bloodline left by his father, but his face was pale and he seemed to have drunk too much. Ever since she returned to the Southern Duchy, her nominal cousin had started to crazily pursue her, not only because of her beauty, but also because of her astonishing wealth.
Adele Isabella showed an elegant smile and avoided the other party's hand without leaving a trace. When the other party's expression was a little surprised, she smiled at the right time and said slowly, "Cousin Raffaele. It seems a little boring here. Why don't we go out for a walk? "
The young noble children cast envious eyes, and Rafis nodded with surprise and a little pride.
Adele Isabella watched all this with a tranquil gaze.
Probably no one knew that in her heart, this cheap cousin in front of her was already a half-dead man, and the nature of a pirate had been left in her bones. According to the original plan and her mission, her cheap cousin would die in an accident not long after. He might die in the hands of bandits, or he might die for other reasons.
The process was not important, what was important was that he must die!
As a descendant of Isabella, she would also be eligible for inheritance. This would be a large territory near the south coast.
The mission had begun.
All the plans were working normally. Although nominally controlling a chamber of commerce, Adele Isabella was actually controlling an army behind the curtain.
Including the elite troops disguised as caravan guards, as well as the assassins from Mordor City.
Recently.
Some small accidents had happened in the Southern Duchy, and some nobles had died. No one knew who was behind the scenes, and it was estimated that no one would be willing to investigate at this time.
After all, these accidents did not seem to have any problems!
Before leaving, Adele quietly winked to the side, and soon a Rogue disguised as a servant quietly left. No one knew where he went, but Adele knew that the time was ripe.
The mission given by His Excellency Søren.
Soon!
She could complete it beautifully, and presumably this would be rewarded by His Excellency.
