Xu Shuo couldn't quite understand why this man, after evading so many times, suddenly decided to confront him head-on this time.
But the purpose of his journey was crystal clear.
To assassinate Wald XVIII!
If killing him outright proved impossible, then the plan was to draw blood first and regroup with allies later for another attempt.
After all, Xu Shuo did quite enjoy the Pope's Character Card. If he could obtain it, that would naturally be preferable; it would also be a pity to leave the side quest unfinished.
Thus, Wald XVIII had to die.
But it didn't need to happen tonight.
This was his plan prior to tonight.
Yet after discovering Wald XVIII's methods, Xu Shuo reconsidered. Perhaps it'd be best to figure out a way to eliminate him tonight.
Leaving him alive...
Would be...
Unwise.
He emerged from the Dark Stealth.
The dark golden knightly attire he wore remained pristine, save for the bloodstains on his hand, which betrayed no sign of disarray.
