After a brief trial, Adam realized that the other party was definitely not an innkeeper.
And Kasumi also realized that Adam did not realize that he was Yae Kasumi.
There are still some obstacles between the two of them.
"Tell me, who are you?"
Adam pointed his sword at Xia in front of him at this time. Because he was just testing her, he did not use his full strength to kill her.
But if the other party still doesn't tell him the reason, then Adam won't let him go so easily.
"That's right, I'm not an innkeeper. In fact, I was following the orders of the Prime Minister and was planning to take Master Guanxing back with me."
"The Prime Minister's order?"
Adam remembered that in the fight for the throne, the one who supported stargazing was the prime minister of this empire.
If it was the other party's people, why would they give such an order?
Could it be that... even Rita didn't tell Guanxing that he wanted to go to the underwater ruins?
"The Prime Minister is fully aware of what Master Guanxing intends to do. However, the Second Prince and his faction have been sending assassins to kill Master Guanxing. Therefore, this is a necessary measure. The Prime Minister does not want Master Guanxing to put himself in danger."
Adam now understood what Xia said.
It's basically like this: Guanxing wants to save the world, but Rita doesn't want Guanxing to come out.
So Guanxing probably slipped out secretly, and the person in front of him was here to take Guanxing back.
But Adam always felt that this person seemed to be hiding some information.
Is it true, as the other party said, that she is actually the prime minister's person?
Just when Adam was confused about Xia's identity, suddenly, the two seemed to hear some noise.
"What is that sound?"
"It seems like someone is coming!"
After hearing the noise, the two of them jumped out of the window without any hesitation. However, at this time, they saw an unexpected person standing outside.
........................
Raven, a mercenary who believes that money is everything.
During the recent period of strange beast attacks and the emperor's sudden death, Raven has been doing very little business.
After all, in the current situation, it is not easy to get a big order.
However, what Raven did not expect was that just a few days ago, she suddenly received a task.
Moreover, this task was commissioned by the famous Second Prince.
Regarding this commission, Raven swore that it was definitely the most shocking thing for her.
After all, the person she wanted to kill this time was the emperor's granddaughter and the designated heir to the empire.
Judging from this incident, I'm afraid the rumors are true.
However, even though the mission was so shocking, Raven had no intention of giving up.
There was no way. The money given by the Second Prince was too much. Raven had no way to refuse.
So, after going through a lot of things, Raven finally came to the outside of the inn, intending to complete the mission directly.
However, what she didn't expect was that she was discovered immediately after she used the grappling hook to climb onto the roof.
"bump!"
As the sound of windows being smashed was heard, Adam and Xia immediately surrounded Raven.
"It seems like today is quite lively. Not only the Prime Minister's people are here, but even the Second Prince's people are here."
Adam's expression turned interesting as he looked at the arriving raven.
But why did Adam know about ravens?
"you again!?"
After seeing Adam, Raven looked as if he had seen a ghost.
After seeing the situation of Raven and Adam, Xia couldn't help but start to wonder.
What's going on? Why does Adam know Raven? Normally, shouldn't these two have any connection?
However, what Xia didn't know was that Adam had actually seen the crow on the first night in the forest.
At that time, Raven was sneaking around and wanted to kill Guanxing directly.
But what she didn't expect was that Adam was not asleep at all at that time, and he beat her up as if she was a thief.
After a round of torture, Adam finally let Raven go.
Adam originally thought that Raven would never come again.
What was unexpected was that Raven actually started to make a comeback.
What a guy who is not afraid of death.
At this time, Adam's side who was guarding the stargazing, the Prime Minister's side, or Xia's side of the ferryman, and the second prince's mercenaries, all gathered above this inn.
There is a feeling that a storm is about to come.
Chapter 404: The Decision of Stargazing
Raven's eyes were filled with anger and determination. The fire in her heart burned fiercely, and she refused to be trampled under Adam's feet again. The last battle had been a huge blow to her, and she didn't want to repeat the same mistake.
She held the dagger tightly in her hand, the blade flashing with a cold light, as if to tear apart anything that dared to stand in her way of revenge. She had only one goal in mind, and that was to destroy Adam.
Adam faced the raven's glare without a trace of fear. He raised the sword in his hand, the patterns on the blade gleaming, as if proclaiming his strength and confidence.
Although the raven is powerful, for Adam, it is only worth watching.
The two men stared at each other, and a tense and oppressive atmosphere filled the air. The surrounding environment seemed to sense the impending fierce battle. The wind died down, and the leaves froze in mid-air, as if time had also been frozen at this moment.
Raven's black cloak fluttered in the breeze, her short gray hair flowing in the air. The aura she exuded made people dare not look directly at her, as if a terrifying beast lurked within her.
For Raven, he must not be easily defeated by Adam like last time.
As a top mercenary, the last battle was something difficult for her to talk about.
This stain on her combat record could only be washed away by Adam's blood.
Although the raven looks murderous, it is actually quite calm.
In Raven's eyes, all of Adam's movements became clearly visible.
"We can win! This time, we will definitely win!"
The raven thought so, and the next moment it pounced on Adam.
However, at this moment, what surprised Raven was that Adam didn't even make any move in the face of his attack.
Obviously, her murderous intent was so direct, but Adam's expression did not change at all. No, there was even a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Why on earth is this happening?"
Raven looked at Adam and suddenly felt that he seemed to have forgotten something.
Suddenly, Raven felt something hit the back of his head.
The next moment, his eyes were plunged into darkness.
"solved."
At this time, Xia said to Adam lightly.
It seemed that he didn't take the raven seriously at all.
Xia could be said to have seen everything that happened between Raven and Adam just now.
To be honest, she didn't expect that Raven would just stare at Adam and completely ignore her.
Even when he had already walked behind the other party, Raven still didn't notice anything. Adam's hatred was too high.
After finding a rope from somewhere, Xia quickly tied up Raven.
"That's it."
Looking at the tied-up Raven, Adam and Xia both felt for some reason that this guy was there to liven up the atmosphere.
"I say, boat driver, what on earth are you doing? Why is it making such a big noise?"
At this time, Xiaote and Guanxing also walked to the window sill and noticed Adam and Xia.
"It happened!"
The moment she saw the stargazing, Xia instinctively wanted to leave.
But if I run away now, it will be difficult to continue what I am doing later.
"It seems that someone didn't go to sleep at all."
At this time, Adam was looking at Guanxing, who had no trace of sleepiness on his face, and said so.
"Someone is fighting so fiercely here. Even if I want to sleep, there's no chance."
Guanxing responded to Adam's teasing in the same way.
But just as Adam said, Stargazing didn't actually go to sleep in the room.
In fact, stargazing is not just about not sleeping, it is about continuing to work hard.
During this time, she has already prepared the route to take tomorrow and the work to be done afterwards.
He pretended to be going to sleep before, probably because he also noticed Xia's problem.
"Master Stargazer, how could you..."
Xia pretended to be very surprised at this time and looked at the stars.
At this moment, she had to pretend to be very surprised.
Now her identity has changed to a spy arranged by Rita here. Of course, this identity is not completely fake.
"I already know everything that happened. I didn't expect that Rita would actually call someone like you and plan to take me back."
Guanxing was looking at Xia coldly at this time, and the aura on his body was completely different from the impression he gave people before.
Now she truly exudes the aura of a king.
Xia still looked very scared at this time, but as to what she was thinking, perhaps only she herself knew.
"I'm sorry, Master Guanxing, this matter was ordered by the Prime Minister..."
"I know Rita has never approved of me coming here, and I understand her."
Guanxing understood Xia's explanation very well.
After all, I escaped.
It's normal for Rita to be worried.
"Go back, and take this assassin with you."
"Hey?"
At this time, Guanxing actually said this directly to Xia, which surprised Xia very much.
Not only did they want me to go back like this, but they even wanted me to bring Raven with me?!
Isn't this noisy?
If he really took Raven back to Prime Minister Rita, his real mission would be completely ruined.
But should we refuse stargazing?
Xia felt that if she refused now, she would definitely be suspected.
If I arouse suspicion now, I'm afraid Adam will really chop me to death.
"Well then, Master Stargazer, I will obey your will."
After Xia finished speaking, she immediately picked up the unconscious Raven and disappeared into the darkness.
