章 113: Evermoor city

"What the hell happened back there?" A brown haired, curvy woman in her twenties asked.

"Our plans have been found out, Hera. That Alex kid is much more terrifying than he had originally thought. You'll be out of the loop because you were in covert ops, busy setting up the entrapment formation, but the Count sent a Mutant class E+ rank assassin after the kid, and Alex came back to town the next day dragging his lifeless, headless corpse through the streets." Kilian gave a short recount of events to the woman as he lay still on her back.

Because of how injured he was, missing a leg, an arm and all of his fingers on his last remaining arm, he couldn't even look after himself, let alone move.

What Alex had done to him had been truly messed up, but well deserved considering the stakes.

So, the woman, Hera, had to carry him on her back the whole trip back to Evermoor.
