As for those who are at the same level as him, unless the other party is completely unprepared, as long as they pass by where he is, they will definitely be able to detect something strange.

Therefore, Raven has never successfully assassinated anyone at the same level as him.

As for those who are higher than him, Raven has not encountered them yet.

Fortunately, Owen did not pass by the corner where Raven was. After observing that the two went to a room and separated, Raven felt that the time had come.

To be on the safe side, Raven waited for another two hours, thinking that Litt and Owen should have fallen asleep anyway before taking action.

He came to Litt's door, followed the shadow of the door crack into the room, and then saw the light on the bedside and Litt lying on the bed and falling asleep.

"Although we have no grudges, your existence is a threat to my future, so please die."

Raven whispered to himself, and then emerged from the shadows, ready to get rid of Litt.

At this moment, the door behind him suddenly opened, and Owen rushed in from inside, stabbing Raven with a sword.

Raven was startled and did not dare to fight for his life. He gave up the assassination of Lit and dodged Owen's attack.

"I knew you would definitely do it at this time!" Owen said, raising his sword to protect Lit.

At this time, Lit also sat up from the bed.

"Sorry, Mr. Raven, it seems that you still can't take my life."

Facing Lit's provocation, Raven sneered.

"Humph, it's okay. If I can't take it this time, I will come again next time. You'd better be able to defend it every time."

After leaving this harsh word, Raven sneaked into the shadows again and left here.

Owen guarded Lit, and after noticing that the dangerous atmosphere around him disappeared, he still did not leave.

"Sure enough, they still sent someone."

Owen said so.

In terms of familiarity with Raven, after Giovanni's death, Owen, who visited Raven every day before, should be the one who knows Raven best.

He knew that Raven had the ability to hide in the shadows, so he deliberately paid attention to the places where Raven could hide. After discovering that this building was full of flaws, Owen was sure that Raven would definitely come in the next two days, so today he deliberately let Lit pretend to sleep for a while, just to trick Raven out.

After this time, Owen was ready to fully strengthen the security here, at least to achieve no blind spot lighting coverage, to ensure that Raven would not attack Lit again.

Of course, even if there is no shadow connected, it is not impossible for Raven to rush in from the side without using his own ability.

Therefore, during this period of time, at least before Raven is caught again, we must not take it lightly.

"Huh, thanks to Mr. Owen, otherwise, I might die under Raven's knife today."

"Thank you Orson, if he hadn't told me about this in advance, I might not have come here."

Owen said.

His current mission, in addition to helping Orson, is to bring Raven to justice again.

After all, Raven is a felon in the empire, and letting him go by mistake was the fault of the public security office.

After this assassination, Owen also knew why Raven was released.

He had completely lost trust in Arthas.

The once righteous and brave prince had changed too much after becoming the emperor.

He was also glad that he saw through Arthas in time and stood on Orson's side, otherwise, he would have helped the evil.

...

On the other side, after escaping in a hurry, Raven was ready to return to the palace and report to Arthas.

The fact that he had been aware of the assassination of Litt in advance proved that there must be an insider next to Arthas who told the intelligence to the coalition in advance, otherwise it would be impossible for Litt to pretend to sleep today.

However, when he walked to an alley again, he stopped.

In front of him, a little blonde girl was standing at the entrance of the alley, with her hands behind her back, her bloody eyes wide open, looking at him curiously.

"Hey, big brother, why are you walking alone in this place so late? Isn't it dangerous?"

Raven looked at him, his eyelids twitching wildly.

This is where he was caught by the people of the Orchid Tavern after he successfully assassinated Francois last time.

At that time, the person who stopped him was the real owner of the Orchid Tavern, a monster known as the "Angel of Killing".

And the little girl he met here today was no coincidence!

Raven instinctively sensed the breath of danger, and just as he was about to run back, a flare suddenly rose in the sky, and a fox half-orc girl with long brown hair also stopped behind him.

"You are the bad guy who wants to kill Brother Lit, right?"

The little girl said this, looking at Raven indignantly.

For some reason, Raven even felt a more terrifying breath from the little girl.

Now the flare illuminates the sky and the nearby area, the shadow has disappeared, and the ability he is proud of can no longer be used.

Raven looked at the scene in front of him, and at this moment he just wanted to cut the person who betrayed the information into pieces.

With wolves in front and tigers behind, Raven had no choice but to fight.

Compared to the orc girl behind him, he chose to rush to the golden-haired vampire in front.

"Huh? You actually chose me?"

Franka pretended to be surprised when she saw the raven rushing toward her, and then laughed.

"Hehe... Then I'll have some fun with you, big brother~"

As she said this, her body disappeared in an instant, and the raven's attack missed her.

"Here~"

Franka's voice came from behind Raven, and he rushed forward, trying to avoid the blow, but his back was still scratched by sharp claws.

"Can't you dodge such a simple move? Sure enough, people who have lived in the shadows for a long time just can't get used to the broad daylight."

Franka didn't know whether she was mocking the raven or alluding to herself. She stretched out boredly, looked at the raven in front of her who was scratched by her, and sighed.

"Assassins are all about winning with one strike. Once you fight with someone far below your own level for a long time, even your thinking about fighting will be changed by them. Am I right, Mr. Raven?"

Raven also turned his head at this time, looked at Franka in front of him, and said with a smile:

"Haha, I didn't expect that the famous 'Killing Angel' would actually be such a little kid."

"Whatever you say~ It's not impossible if you want to see me the way I was for the first time, but I'm in a better mood today and am willing to show my true face."

Franka said this and disappeared again.

At this time, Lena also rushed in front of the raven. Compared to Franka's agility, Lena's tricks were much more direct.

She punched Raven directly in the body.

This punch seemed simple, but Raven felt in his heart that he must not accept this punch, otherwise big problems would definitely occur.

It was at this time that Franka's voice came from behind again.

"I'm sorry~ Big brother, sometimes people have to make choices~"

Franka's move blocked the raven's escape route, leaving the raven not knowing how to act for a moment.

Is it the iron fist in front of me or the sharp claws behind me, I can only choose to avoid one.

The iron fist in front of him was dangerous, but Franka behind him also used a killing move. Raven had no choice but to take one of Lena's moves.

Then, Lena punched Raven's fist firmly. The first thing Raven felt was the pain of almost breaking the bones of his hand, and then his whole body flew out like a cannonball, smashing on the wall.

This move was one that even Orson didn't dare to take casually. Raven itself was not good at strength, so he almost used up all his strength to take this move.

At this time, Franka also came to the raven.

"Ah la~ This won't work~ What a bastard, big brother~"

With that said, she stretched out her hand and lifted the raven's chin.

"Let me see, which hand did you throw the dagger to kill Li Te? There is no way, after all, it is the employer's order, I have to carry it out."

Lena also followed Franka at this time.

"Um...Sister Franka, is it enough to teach him a lesson?"

"Lena, don't be so naive. He wants to harm your benefactor's relatives, so let him go like this? Do you think Orson will be happy?"

"Then...how about giving him a happy one..." Lena suggested.

"Well, that's a good idea." Franka nodded, then looked at the raven.

"Did you hear that, Mr. Raven, she is begging you."

Raven glanced at Lena, then at Franka, and smiled disdainfully.

"I should have died once, as you wish."

"Ouch? I didn't expect you to be quite tough."

Franka said, patting Raven's face.

"However, your life is still of some use, so you can't die yet."

Then, she hit the raven on the back of the head with a knife, causing the raven to faint.

"I'll take you away first, little sister." Franka said as she carried the raven, which was much bigger than her.

"When you go back, remember to tell Lite that you don't have to worry about Raven anymore and let her sleep well."

Orson received the letter from Franka in the student union office. Looking at the contents of the letter, he nodded with satisfaction.

As a good brother, he just wants his sister to have a good night's sleep. Is there anything wrong with that?

"Alsace, it's time to show your trump card."

Orson looked in the direction of the palace and spoke meaningfully.

Three days later, because Alsace had not responded, the coalition troops outside the city began to garrison the city, preparing to launch the final attack on Alsace together with the mercenaries.

Alsace also used these three days to organize and train the forcibly recruited soldiers. This group of citizens was barely trained into recruits who could wield weapons and form a queue.

It had been three full days since Robin was drafted into the army. During these three days, he had met many people who were like him and were recruited as the sole breadwinner of the family.

If they die on the battlefield, it will be a huge blow to their families.

Think about it, if the head of the family falls, it will be no different than the sky falling.

Because Robin was a carpenter, he did a lot of physical work and performed very well during training. He became a mid-level officer in charge of five hundred soldiers.

During the break of the training, Robin brought in a few like-minded people, who were also middle-level sergeants, and together they had more than 3,000 soldiers.

"Today should be the last training. I heard from the superior that the Duke outside has sent troops in, and we have to be the first batch of troops to fight them."

Robin has become the leader of a small group among this group of officers, and he was the first to tell the intelligence he had obtained.

After hearing Robin's words, everyone else showed a timid or fearful look.

"How can we fight that group of people? After all, they are regular troops, they usually get military pay, and they have received much more training than us. I think for the army under our command, it would be good if we can achieve a three-to-one casualty ratio."

An officer spoke directly in a depressing tone.

"In fact, I am more worried that the people under my command will not be able to control and mutiny." Another officer also expressed his concerns.

"Think about it, we were all forced to come here, and we didn't want to fight. Being an officer might be safer. Are those frontline soldiers willing to die?"

"I know there are a group of prisoners released from prison. They should be on the front line. It is said that if the war is won, they will be pardoned."

"Alas... to put it bluntly, they are just cannon fodder..."

Listening to the officers around him talking, Robin suddenly said:

"Then... everyone, I have an idea here, I don't know if you are willing to listen."

"Listen, of course I will listen, as long as we can save our lives, anything is fine."

"That's right, I have three people to support at home."

Seeing Robin speak, the other officers expressed their willingness to listen.

After all, in their current situation, there is really nothing to say about desperate medical treatment.
