Reincarnation Paradise: Passion Leads to Greatest Success

Chapter 126 Blue Rose

"This is Princess Lana's request. What are your thoughts?"

After recounting the entire process of reaching an agreement with Lana, Lajus's gaze swept over each team member sitting at the round table, and she carefully considered every suggestion that followed.

For a moment, no one spoke, but everyone's attitude was clearly visible.

As twin assassins, Tia and Tina share almost identical personalities; both are rather taciturn and have always trusted Lahas since joining Blue Rose.

Although the commission Lajus accepted this time was related to the kingdom's reforms, they knew that Lajus had her own considerations. Adventurers made a living by accepting commissions, so they all remained silent, their stance of having no opinion was very clear.

The same goes for Gagran. In her, you can clearly see the shadow of a warrior: muscular, bold, but not good at thinking.

She had fought alongside her teammates in the Blue Rose for many years, developing a deep friendship. Moreover, she cared deeply about her teammates and always entrusted them with tasks.

Lajus glanced at the screen and quickly came to her answer, her gaze settling on the strongest member, "Evilue."

Ibiruai was petite and wore a long red robe. Because she wore a mask, her attitude was unclear.

"I acknowledge Princess Lana's wisdom, but with just a few of us, it will be difficult to completely eradicate all of Eight Fingers' strongholds. If we cannot eliminate this underground force in one fell swoop, we may find it difficult to move an inch when they make a comeback."

Evilue was somewhat worried about this. She wasn't worried about her own safety; as a vampire who had lived for over 250 years, her strength was enough to destroy a country.

She joined "Blue Rose" because she lost a bet with former Blue Rose member Riguri Belz Golan, and she was more worried about the situation of the other Blue Rose members. It wasn't that she doubted her teammates' abilities, but rather that the enemy was in the shadows while she was in the open, and she feared that if the elimination wasn't thorough, it would invite even stronger retaliation.

Lahoz nodded seriously.

"Princess Lana and I have indeed considered this point, so to avoid alerting them, we need to investigate all of Eight Fingers' strongholds in the capital first."

Once the intelligence gathered is complete, the warrior captain will lead his troops to join us. There will also be quite a few Orichalcum and Mithril-level adventurers. In short, our forces are absolutely capable of wiping out this underground force in one fell swoop.

"In that case, I'm fine."

With Evilue's approval, Lajus breathed a sigh of relief. With the approval of this powerful ally, the extermination operation would be much easier.

"Since everyone is okay with it, our first priority is to investigate the possible strongholds of Eight Fingers based on the information provided by Princess Lana. We need to be careful and not let them discover our plan."

Lahoz took out a map, spread it out on the table, and began to explain the contents of the plan in detail.

The unfolded map was very detailed, covering every detail of the capital and its surroundings, and people had already marked various locations on it, including villages outside the capital and buildings within the capital.

dong dong dong ——

Just as the members of the Blue Rose were discussing their respective tasks, a rhythmic knocking on the door caught everyone's attention.

Lajus frowned, wondering who would come looking for them at this hour. Could it be that Princess Lana had new information? But they had just discussed it this morning, so it seemed unlikely.

Judging from the hint of doubt in the eyes of the other team members, Lahoz guessed that the visitor was most likely a hotel waiter or owner. Although she didn't know their purpose, she still stepped forward and opened the door.

"Young lady, who are you looking for?"

Lahoz looked at the girl in front of her, dressed as a maid, with a delicate face and a lovely smile, with a puzzled expression. Although she was a little confused, she still smiled and patiently asked what she wanted.

"We've come to find you."

Mia blinked, a smile in her eyes.

"us?"

Lahoz accurately found the keywords inside, and then glanced at the man in black beside her out of the corner of her eye.

At that moment, Laju felt her heart stop beating. She was filled with shock. The man was less than a meter away from her, and she hadn't noticed him at all. Did this mean that if the man in black wanted to attack her, she might not even have a chance to react?

"Lagus, who's outside?"

From inside came Gegrand's question, tinged with worry, wondering why Lajus hadn't made a sound after opening the door.

"It's nothing, they probably knocked on the wrong door."

Laju turned her head and responded to the voice inside the house before looking at the man in black who was clearly in charge.

"Who are you looking for?"

Fang Yu nodded.

"Yes, we're looking for the Blue Rose."

"Oh, I'm Lahagi, the captain of Blue Rose. What can I do for you?"

Lajus's eyes flashed with surprise as her gaze swept over Fang Yu and Mia. She felt that this outfit and combination was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what made it familiar, as if she had heard of it somewhere before.

In short, she could inexplicably sense the other person's kindness, and that gentle attitude made her feel very comfortable, so much so that she subconsciously didn't think about it in any other way.

"You can call me Black Knife, at least that's what people outside call me."

"The black knife? Is it the black knife I was thinking of?"

"I think I'm probably the only one named Black Knife."

"This...this—"

Lajus was caught off guard. Of course, she knew that Black Knife was in the capital, and that Black Knife and Steel Princess had been wandering around the capital for several days.

He even considered meeting the legendary Black Knife after discussing the plan with his teammates, hoping to get him to join the operation against Eight Fingers. With the combined strength of two Steel-level adventurers, even if Eight Fingers were stronger, they would be powerless to turn the tide.

And now, before she could even make any plans, Black Knife has come knocking on her door wanting to see them.

Lajus's mouth gaped slightly in surprise as she looked at the two people's attire again. The all-black style matched the black sword, the beautiful steel princess in the maid outfit matched, and even the handsome and gentle image matched.

"Won't you invite us in for a seat?"

Seeing Layu's girlish demeanor, Fang Yu chuckled, knowing that his exceptionally high charm was beginning to take effect.

"But----."

Lajus suppressed the turmoil in her heart, caught in a dilemma. She wanted to recruit Black Knife, but she was also afraid that if Black Knife heard about the plan, he would not join, leading to the exposure of the intelligence.

The flutter in her heart wasn't for love or affection for anyone else. Although she was young, she was a seasoned warrior, and falling in love at first sight was almost impossible for her.

This feeling of excitement is more like a reaction of surprise.

"I have information about the eight fingers."
