Ferderick arrived at the Black Shadow headquarters and there Stev and Josep had been waiting for him in a huff, they immediately approached Ferderick who had just opened the door.
"Thank God you look good" Stev said.
"Have you managed to kill the Crown Princess?" joseph asked doubtfully.
"What you're saying is, of course, Ferderick killed him because he managed to come out healthy" Stev's team guessed because Ferderick didn't say anything.
"What will happen to all of us if I fail to kill the Crown Princess?"
The two men were silent for a moment after hearing Ferderick's words.
"Is the Princess still alive?" ask Joseph.
"Right, my neck was almost slashed by it"
"What's? In seriously? Is the Crown Princess that strong?"
"That's because I'm unfocused, forgive me" Ferderick bowed languidly.
"Eyyy.. Don't apologize, you've tried so hard, but how did you escape? You said the Princess almost slashed your neck?"
"He let me go"
"How can you?" Joseph and Stev seem to distrust the Crown Princess for allowing the life of the one who was about to kill her.
"Yes, that's how it is, so what will Duke Verano do if we fail?"
"Oh, it seems like he will continue to ask us to attack the Crown Princess, but since we are already not going to take the job of a hit man then it should be fine right?" stev hesitantly said.
**************
In Duke's castle, Duke Verano had just gotten word from his eyes that the Sword master's assassin had failed to kill his nephew.
"Basic brash, useless, really bad, did they really send a sword master?" said the Duke in a high tone of voice, gritting his teeth.
"True Master, they really sent him but I saw him come out with a body that was fine and the Crown Princess looked unharmed" replied the black-robed Man.
"Are you sure?"
"Surely Sir"
"Alright, the boy turned out to be very strong, he really got in my way, let's think of another way to get rid of him next time" Duke smiled cunningly.
"What happened Dad?" jasson Verano said as he approached his father and sat down before him.
"You're home yet?"
"Yes Dad, I just attended a party at Marques Johnston's residence like you wanted"
"Good Jasson, you must be able to take the heart of his daughter and the Marquees will be our supporters because the old man has abundant connections and wealth that will ease our steps towards us seizing the throne of the king"
"I understand Dad"
"And, one more task, go near Rubia and find an opportunity to take her out of the palace so that we can more easily eliminate her"
"Good idea Jasson" Duke smiled sumringah with his son's idea.
