…

The deep of the night.

In Lyss City, a dim basement.

In the middle of the room, there was a giant circular wooden table with a Nightstone hanging over it as a chandelier.

The dim light made the entire space mysterious and shadowy.

Twelve people in black robes were gathered around the circular table.

Their cloaks concealed their figures, masks hid their faces.

There were many empty seats around the table, indicating that almost half of the regular attendees were missing.

The figure in black at the head of the table began to speak, “Alright, whoever has completed their tasks can hand them in.”

The people present seemed quite familiar with the process.

Three of them pulled documents from their cloaks, having gathered intelligence, and handed them to the leader.

The figure at the head, the leader, stowed the documents into his clothes, nodding slightly in acknowledgment.

Out of the twelve present, only three had reports.

Again, the leader in black, took out several assignments.

Then he said, “I know everyone has been cautious lately, but our duties still need to be fulfilled. Look at the assignments for this time, and anyone who thinks they can complete one should take it.”

A pile of data was spread out.

Everyone started to pass it on and look through it.

“I should be able to manage the arms factory assignment,” a figure in black robe claimed, speaking thus before directly taking the assignment into their hands.

“I can take on the task of capturing the transmigrator, but I do not have a suitable place for interrogation. If anyone has a secure location, we can cooperate and split the merit equally.”

As soon as this man spoke up, another quickly chimed in.

“I’ve just dealt with a hidden location. We can cooperate there.”

“Alright, tell me the location, and I will detain and escort him there once I catch him,” he replied.

“Agreed.”

The man who offered up the location hastily wrote down an address on a piece of paper and handed it to the one who accepted the task.

Tasks could be taken singularly or completed in cooperation.

Taking them on alone upped both the difficulty and the reward.

Cooperation reduced the risk but also made it easier to investigate one another’s identities, thereby raising a different kind of danger.

It was not as if the lack of a face meant your information became worthless.

…

Shortly, all the tasks were handled and assigned.

The whole room fell into silence once more.

At this point, someone spoke up again.

“The City Lord’s house has been increasingly stringent in their search for us and they also have a highly capable team aiding them. We must solve this problem.”

“Indeed, half of the usual attendees at our circular table are already gone. None of us can be sure if we’ll be the next one. I believe we should prioritize this matter, at least find out the team investigating on her behalf.”

“If anyone has any leads on this team, I can arrange for someone to get rid of them.”

“Or we could just eliminate the City Lord. There wouldn’t be any need for an investigation.”

“You’re being a bit presumptuous. If she could be killed, she would have been dead so many times over already.”

Everyone started speaking up again, each taking a turn to voice their thoughts.

Discussions were mostly revolving around their worry for the City Lord and their fears of being the next to be removed from the round table.

Even if the City Lord wouldn’t kill them, the other faceless ones would.

Once they were caught by the City Lord, the other faceless ones would get rid of them immediately.

Then, when everything seemed chaotic but no solutions were to be found, the leader suddenly spoke up.

“Speaking of this mysterious team, I do have suspicions about someone who fits the profile of a person who might be able to assist her.”

All eyes turned to him.

“Who is it?”

“It’s that newly arrived merchant in the city, Fang Hao!”
