บท 296: Waiting and being on the edge

Next day.

After a day's rest, Lith was back in Duram Tea Peak, spying on the members of the Senzal Clan and preparing himself to attack at any given moment's notice.

It had been a few hours since he had arrived back in Redstone City. He followed the usual route of first going into the Senzal Clan territory, spying on Vaan near the pond until he met with his aunt and cousin.

He followed this usual routine since he didn't want to risk anything even in the slightest. The matter was serious since a Rank 9 was into the play now. He couldn't afford to make mistakes.

He was a mere Rank 3 who was hoping to assassinate a Rank 9, had it been anyone else other than him, it would be nothing but wishful thinking.
