Chapter 1436 Failed Operation
1:15 A.M.
Most people had already begun snoring in dreamland while some were at work, planning to work till dawn.
And for others, they were either watching tv or hanging out with friends, seeing that they were free the following day.
Off days were managed to be enjoyed. And they planned to spend every hour gifted to them in bliss.
The night was hot and stagnant.
Damn. This heat was enough to cause a heat stroke even at night.
The only comfort they had was that the sea breeze, though very low, gave comfort to many.
Their windows were opened, their fans and air conditioners turned on without delay.
Some also had water nearby ready to quench their dry throats.
The night sky was filled with uncountable stars but no clouds at sight.
It was indeed beautiful.
The moon was so bright and large, illuminating the world below.
The many foreigners star-gazing in their hotel rooms with wine in their hands, couldn't help feeling blessed for being in this moment of absolute peace.
They gulped down their drinks and stared above in bliss.
Beautiful.
What a beautiful night!
Yes... It was indeed a sight to see.
But for others, they were having an even more difficult time.
In a hotel room, 2 men were sweating buckets after escaping for their lives.
.
Bang!
They fell on their beds with grim expressions.
"Brother, we were almost caught! One of them exclaimed. They had underestimated these Baymardians.
"... Yes... " replied the other in a daze.
Tonight's fiasco had left a chill in his heart.
And for the first time, a strange dream gnawed at his insides.
Too brutal!
He felt like they had passed some terrible tribulation out here.
In the darkroom, the men stared at one another in silence.
Before taking action, they thought it would be a simple operation.
But who can tell them why these Baymardians seemed to have eyes at the back of their heads?
Could these people's skills have advanced through leaps and bounds since last they came into this desolate continent?
Shocking!
Both men were blown out of their shoes with several thoughts racing through their minds.
But before one can understand their predicament, one first has to understand their identities.
Bone and Claw.
Those were their names given to them by their master. They were twins, always working alongside each other.
It was hard to see one of them and not see the other.
So... Who was their master, and who were they really? Forces from Veinitta sent on a private mission to find out the whereabouts of Prince Skye.
They were hidden guards from Alexander's direct team.
Yes... They worked for Dafaren's monarch.
Prince Skye had been missing for too long. And those initially sent had also turned up missing. So obviously, some lowly Pyno bastard was taking them out one by one.
And that's where they came in.
Their journey first took them to Carona, where they heard of Prince Skye's defeat. But from the information they bought off the Guilds, it was speculated that Prince Skye wasn't dead but locked up somewhere.
And after a few more weeks of snooping around, they found that these Caronians and Baymardians weren't hiding this fact that Skye was indeed locked up in Baymard.
Even more insulting was that they wanted Alexander to discuss his release and prisoner transfer with them.
But before that, Skye must serve at least 1/3rd of his prison sentence in Pyno before any right of transfer can be agreed upon.
They probably feared that if they let things go, Alexander wouldn't punish his son... Which should rightly be!
Why the hell would he punish Prince Skye?
As far as they could see, these people's actions were slapping their faces, as though saying: Pyno is stronger than Veinitta.
Such a thing was a trigger for war!
.
Finding his whereabouts, they then headed here to Baymard to confirm these facts.
But it should be noted that they weren't here to rescue Skye but to gather any possible information that could help Alexander fight back.
And where were they targeting? District B, the lower region, and everything concerning the Coastal region.
They planned to stay here for a while, sneaking into these many places.
They couldn't lie.
Greed also flashed within their eyes.
Just look at the hotel they were staying in.
If they could get the manufacturing processes and information, wouldn't Alexander promote them to the sky?
That is... Such a feat is enough to shake the entire Dafaren and make it stand above any empire in Morgany!
Who knew that Pyno would birth such a genius?
Initially, they thought of kidnapping his majesty Landon. But after thinking about it, they calmed down greatly.
Though his majesty Landon moved about freely without any guards around, who knew if the few passerbys were his hidden men?
Such a risk was too heavy to take now.
If they get caught or killed, their master will never know all they discovered.
That's why they strictly curbed their chaotic thoughts and stuck to infiltrating these private regions.
Get in, steal information, get out and leave Baymard.
Such a simple layout. But now, who can tell them why it all seemed so difficult all of a sudden?
.
Claw looked at Bone, using his elbows to drag his numb body.
"Brother, I think we should forget about gathering information on this district B and focus on the others," Claw said, catching his breath.
He didn't know if it was that the vigilance skills of these people in Pyno had gone through heavenly changes or that they were lucky.
But tonight, every time they wanted to continue advancing, they would hear the nearby guards yell out: Who's there! I think I heard something! Who? Is anyone there? Show yourselves!
Though these Baymardians didn't have great fighting abilities, they were so alert that they seemed to have heard their every little move.
If he moved a finger, they would talk about their guesses on whether someone was intruding or not.
Honestly, if not that he, a human, knew the limits of humanity, he could be sworn their eyes could see as clear as day in the dark.
