Chapter 438: Chapter 245: A Sword to Restrain Killing - Rakshasa, Luo Xinfu_1
[...]
[You remain invisible, stealthily open the window, and make your way into the bedroom.]
[On the bed, the two maids are still in deep sleep...]
[You possess the body of the ’Knowledge-Seeking Direct View Association’s President’!]
After his ninja master leaves, Lin Xun rushes back to Yiye Palace at full speed.
He doesn’t know whether his ninja master has reached the palace city, nor where his ninja master would hide once he arrives.
But to participate in the operation to assassinate the Deputy Chief of Yiye Palace, it’s not that hard.
[You approach the bed and pat the two sleeping maids in an attempt to wake them up.]
[Perhaps due to their exertion from the previous intense battle, the two maids murmur unconsciously and roll over to continue sleeping soundly.]
[You shake your head, walk straight to the entrance of the bedroom, and push open the door...]
[The on-duty Yin Yang Master outside the door is immediately alert and respectfully asks what the foreign mage needs.]
[You claim to have been awakened suddenly in the middle of the night, with a sudden inspiration about a spell, and urgently need to discuss it with the Deputy Chief.]
[Without hesitating, the Yin Yang Master responds that the Deputy Chief has already gone to sleep, suggesting that it would be better to discuss the matter with him the next morning...]
[Halfway through his sentence, you suddenly become furious, rebuking him loudly, pointing out that the inspiration for a spell is fleeting, not something that can be postponed at will!]
[By tomorrow morning, when the inspiration has all but disappeared, you will tell the Deputy Chief the truth.]
[Due to the delay caused by these two guards, a great opportunity to discuss a powerful spell has been missed, causing a loss for not only Yiye Palace but the whole Sakura Fall... Can these two bear this responsibility?!]
[Instead of getting angry at your scolding, the two Yin Yang Masters humble themselves, bowing again and again in apology.]
[They exchange glances, and one of them rushes off right away, claiming to report to the Deputy Chief in person and asking you to wait for a short while...]
[...]
[Soon, the Yin Yang Master returns, bowing respectfully and inviting you to move to the main palace.]
[The two Yin Yang Masters lead the way, indicating for you to follow them to the main palace...]
Lin Xun smirks, choosing to stay where he is.
[You stand still, looking gloomy, and the two Yin Yang Masters, noticing you haven’t moved and seeing the expression on your face, know they’re in trouble.]
[Both hurriedly kneel down and bow repeatedly, asking you to forgive their past mistakes...]
[But you coldly smile, stride back into the bedroom, and leave a sentence: tell the Deputy Chief to come here to see you.]
[You close the bedroom door, ignoring the people outside the door anymore.]
Of course, Lin Xun didn’t mean to embarrass the two little Yin Yang Masters.
His aim was to create assassination conditions for his ’ninja master’.
The master’s residence, the Guardian of the Ten Directions’ Absolute Realm was being guarded. Even a ninja master would need to expend a lot of energy to break through the ultimate protective barrier.
He remembered that his ninja master had an old injury and was likely to drain much power in the process of breaking the barrier. There would probably be many difficulties in defeating the Deputy Chief.
Now that he has lured the Deputy Chief into the bedroom, the greatest defense of the Deputy Chief has been eliminated.
He didn’t believe that a brittle Summoner would be able to withstand the assassination of a top ninja master.
"With the help of a powerful ally, I must be a god-like teammate, and can’t just stand by..."
[...]
[Soon, there is a knock at the bedroom door, and the ’Fire Worshiping Deputy Chief of Yiye Palace’ comes in.]
[His clothes are neat, his makeup is exquisite on his old face; it’s clear that he hasn’t slept yet.]
[A red monster, the Shikigami ’Black Heavenly Dog’, follows the Deputy Chief closely!]
[The ’Fire Worshiping Deputy Chief of Yiye Palace’ doesn’t look displeased at all.]
[When he sees the sleeping maids on the bed, their bodies marked with bruises, he even chuckles: Foreign mage, you’re in high spirits!]
[You lead the Deputy Chief to the desk, point out the spell you wrote during the day, and explain to him the ’inspiration’ you just thought of...]
[The Deputy Chief listens very attentively, showing great interest in your spell which turns knowledge into complex characters, then imparts them into another person’s mind to cause an attack.]
[He listens with fascination, and the red ’Black Heavenly Dog’ continues standing guard by his side...]
[...]
"Can he have the ’Black Heavenly Dog’ away?"
"No, it’s too conspicuous and might raise suspicion."
Lin Xun has been dragging the Deputy Chief, waiting for a long time, yet his ninja master still hasn’t shown up.
"Was he delayed by something?"
Even the Medium Ninja’s body had arrived at Yiye Palace early; his ninja master couldn’t be slower than the Medium Ninja.
He hasn’t shown up yet, and it’s not clear what accident may have happened.
[You have had an in-depth discussion with the Deputy Chief and passed on all your inspiration.]
[The Deputy Chief is very satisfied with the new spell you created, but now that the conversation is over, he suggests that you should get some rest, as he also needs to go back to his palace to sleep...]
[Would you like to hold back the ’Fire Worshiping Deputy Chief of Yiye Palace’?]
At this point, the ’ninja master’ was nowhere to be found, and the plan of a two-man battle against the Deputy Chief couldn’t be carried out.
Lin Xun had no choice but to click ’yes,’ to continue to hold back the Deputy Chief and delay time.
[Having wracked your brain, you cannot come up with other ’inspirations,’ and you don’t know how to make an excuse to keep the Deputy Chief.]
