Chapitre 138: 136: The first leg

"I'm not nervous. I'm not nervous and I know I can do this'' Maria watched Trisha pump herself up. The decisive day was already upon them and everything had been planned by the resistance.

The task sounded simple but it had many layers to them. Their enemy was not a one-time villain from a novel but a whole organization that had the nation behind them. Things could turn violent at any given time if they were not careful.

"You'll do just fine. You know the castle inside-out right? So lead us to the place where you think they kept Kagemori'' Maria assured the princess in a gentle voice. She did understand the hesitation and doubt the princess would be feeling right now. She had felt all that at one point as well.

In fact, Maria was still nervous since their plan had a good chance of going off the rails from the very start but she also had hope. There was still time for them to be able to do everything right.
