Charlotte Meklen had crossed into the Fars Empire, seeking only to become a civil servant in a different continent. She wasn't a combatant... But who would have thought that even clerical staff would end up on the battlefield!
Charles thought to himself, "Who the heck said we're on the same side?"
The assassin spread his arms wide, resembling a huge bat, as he soared into the air and rushed out of the military camp in an instant, without even disturbing the Westwind Knights on night watch.
Charles hesitated for a moment before activating the Wings of the Hatchling Dragon to follow.
From their brief exchange, Charles had roughly assessed that this Blood Clan assassin was of a higher Transcendent rank than him, but his understanding of the Angel's Thorn swordsmanship was not as profound—the assassin had only grasped the Fourth Movement: Wings of the Hatchling Dragon. As for how many of the Asiluo Clan's Special Abilities he had mastered, the assassin hadn't used them, so it was impossible to tell.
