Bab 140: Chapter 140: The palace infiltration

---

As they approached the palace, Dabi's heart raced with anticipation.

The ornate structure loomed before them, a symbol of the King's power and oppression.

Tall stone walls and fortified gates guarded the entrance, but Dabi knew they had a plan.

"Stay close," Dabi instructed, gesturing to a narrow alley that led into a shadowy courtyard adjacent to the palace.

"We'll enter through the side entrance and disable the guards before they can raise the alarm."

The group moved swiftly, adrenaline coursing through their veins as they crept toward the entrance.

Dabi led the way, his senses heightened as he surveyed the area.

The air was thick with tension, and he could hear the distant sounds of the city awakening merchants shouting....

Children laughing, and the faint clang of metal from the palace guards as they went about their duties.
