บท 299: The Intelligence and The Messenger

Garden Mansion of Inner City in the Kingdom of Graycastle.

Today was the scheduled information exchange day. Theo was sitting on a couch in the living room waiting for the arrival of the members of the "Dove and Hat" acrobatic troupe. The inner city's door closed early in the evening after autumn so that the secret party had to be changed to the afternoon.

Hill Fawkes was always the first to reach the mansion.

He was wearing a blue velvet open-collar jacket with a pair of light gray tights and moccasins along with a white tie around his neck, just like a noble. After paying his respect, he passed the "History of the Kingdom's Customs" to Theo whom later took the book and glanced through with great interest. "You've finished reading?"

"Yes," Hill nodded and said with hesitation, "Will you teach me some sword fighting... or assassination skills?"

"What for?"
