Conquering His Cold Heart-Chapter 635 Fierce operation (3)

While Chana flirted with the attractive ronso guard, pressing her strong yet soft body against his and her two youngest sisters started to fight amongst themselves due to their drunken state, Maressa frowned and purged the alcohol from her body.

"Is that?" She saw something that made her blood chill. A human woman with a height of roughly six feet, auburn hair and a scar across her right eye. And though she appeared delicate and thin underneath her cloak Maressa knew that the woman could likely go toe to toe with her when it came to pure physical power.

"Kalia" She spoke the woman's name with an icy chill, her hands instinctually balling into tight fists as she did.

Without a moment's hesitation Maressa charged towards the two ronso guards like a woman on a mission. Her sudden burst of speed and tense expression put the ronsos on alert, both quickly reached for their weapons and readied themselves for battle. Chana who was completely oblivious was blown back several steps almost losing her balance.

"Hey…" Before she could complain however she caught sight of her sister's face and swallowed her words, her instincts screaming that something was very wrong.

"The two of you serve the Lord of this territory, Lord Frost correct?" Maressa wasted no time caring for her drunken sister, she was a big girl a little fall wasn't going to do much to her.

"….Yes we serve Lord Frost." It took the ronsos a second or two to release the grips they had on their weapons and once again relax. The woman before them though intimidating and baring a rather worrisome expression revealed no fighting intent at least towards them.

"Good." Maressa let out a short sigh of relief before telling the two ronso guards what she saw.

" Just now I caught sight of a well-known assassin from the underworld syndicate by the name of Kalia. This woman is wanted in over five kingdoms for mass murder, kidnapping, theft and a whole load of other crimes. She and her colleagues lack a single shred of morality, they'll kill and torture anyone even children if the price is right.

Her presence here can only be bad news." The ronsos only humoured her words in the beginning but by the end of her tale both were frowning and exchanging furtive glances. Maressa's report was actually worth their time.

"Thank you miss we'll inform the Lord of this immediately; he'll decide on how to deal with this problem." The ronso guard on the right replied to Maressa before sending the guard on the left to inform their direct superior who would then inform Frost.

"Good, in the meantime I'll follow after her and try to prevent her from taking any drastic actions." Before the ronso guard could even reject her interference the woman was off, quickly chasing after Kalia's shadow.

"Chana get up off your ass and follow!"

"Urgh what about Myrina and Freya?"

"Leave them, they'll only get in the way in their current state." The two youngest sisters were not only the weakest of the group but were also the most drunk, totally useless for what was about to take place.

Chana quickly dusted herself off, gave the frowning ronso guard a flirtatious wink and chased after her elder sister.

"What are we doing?"

"It's Kalia from the underworld syndicate, she's here in the Camp, likely not alone." Maressa curtly said before picking up the pace, using her senses and tracking skills to follow Kalia who hopefully had no idea that someone recognised her. free𝑤ebnovel.com

"Kalia!" Chana uttered the woman's name with a similar chill as her sister, her face instantly turning savage as fury flowed through her veins. Enjoy new adventures from novelbuddy.com

One of the kingdoms that Kalia was wanted in for her crimes was theirs.

Maressa and her sisters were from a small Queendom in the east that encouraged their women to be strong, more than a match for any man.

Within this small Queendom was the largest and most powerful all female army on the continent. The country may be lacking in size and population in comparison to the Northrend empire but none of its neighbours take it lightly.

Thankfully, though they promote strength in their women they don't seek to belittle men thus diplomatic relationships weren't complicated, with many even being staunch allies with the Queendom.

Several years ago Kalia and her group from the underworld syndicate were hired to retrieve a rare medical herb from one of the imperial warehouses. A crime that by itself may lead to long imprisonment and perhaps even death but it wouldn't galvanise an entire nation in hatred towards you, no, the problem was what Kalia, and her comrades did to get the item and what they did on the side.

All the guards were killed without mercy, several merchant and herbalist families upturned, the elders slaughtered while the children and the women taken out of the country to serve as illegal slaves. They even burned two other warehouses during their escape just to fool their pursuers.

It had been a long time since the Queendom of Ranullia had suffered such a barbaric humiliation. The Queen herself ordered that every single soldier, adventurer and mercenary that called Ranullia home had to keep their eyes peeled for Kalia and her cohorts.

Those with at least C-rank strength were even ordered to kill on sight regardless of the territory they found themselves in, the Queen would accept any diplomatic repercussions.

Both Maressa and Chana were C-rank thus given that they were both loyal citizens of the Ranullia Queendom they had a duty to uphold.

Any remaining alcohol was swiftly purged from Chana's body as she and her sister dashed to and fro following after Kalia's trail.

15 minutes later the two sisters had followed Kalia to what seemed to be her target destination. From their position they could see her and at least two accomplices enter into the Sleeping Fenrir, acting like bog standard D-rank adventurers here to eat a rewarding meal after a long day's work.

Their disguise was rather seamless only Chana and Maressa knew their true identities due to the Ranullia Queen spreading Kalia's appearance and characteristics to each and everyone of her citizens, their nation's anger ran deep.

"This is the Sleeping Fenrir."

"Their target must be inside, what should we do sis, we're not exactly master's of disguise." It was rather hard to go unnoticed when you looked the way they did.

"Put on your heavy cloak, as long as we don't reveal too much skin we'll be able to pass simple glances." Though if Kalia and her team took a few seconds to closely examine them then they'd be screwed but Maressa was hoping that their focus would be on the target and whomever was guarding them as well as the ronsos who patrolled the Camp.

"Alright sis I'll follow your lead." The two sisters were more than prepared for this to turn into a devasting brawl in the middle of the Niflheim Camp. Though this could sink their reputation with Lord Frost their Queen had given her orders and letting Kalia go was just not possible.

'Hopefully the Lord acts quickly, an assassination or worse in his territory wouldn't do him any favours.' Maressa albeit confident in her martial prowess knew that Kalia and her group were no easy targets. Having a B-rank fighter like Lord Frost fighting with them would make the whole takedown much smoother.

"Come on Chana let's go, for Ranullia."

"For Ranullia." With their heavy obscuring cloaks adorned Maressa and Chana entered the Sleeping Fenrir with their weapons at the ready, hidden beneath their cloaks.

"Hi welcome to the Sleeping Fenrir, are you here to stay or just for a meal?" A receptionist asked the two cloaked giants as they crossed the threshold.

"Just a meal please for two."

"A meal for two is it then please find yourself a seat on the western side of the dining room but if there's no seat available you can sit at the southern side." The receptionist handed the two of them a dinner time menu before returning to her duties.

Maressa and Chana nodded to one another before naturally walking into the dinning room with their eyes peeled.

"Sis by the southern side, the large middle window and by the entrance to the kitchen on the western side.

"I see them there's also two more, each at the northern and eastern side." The dining room was clearly guarded in all four directions.

Suddenly Maressa felt a prying gaze over her body but a moment later it was gone.

'Phew that was close.' Their gamble had paid off Kalia and her team weren't focused on those entering the dining room.

"Sis Kalia's in the centre of the room." Chana discretely flicked her chin in Kalia's direction. There the woman was reading through the menu with a pensive look as though struggling to chose what to eat but occasionally her eyes would dart to the kitchen door as well as her colleagues.

Her actions weren't actually much to draw attention to given that this was an adventurer's camp, everyone was a little wary here, a state that helped them keep up their disguises.

"What's the plan sis?"
