1241: Scarface's Confidence

Scarface's Confidence

~Rambles. Rambles. Rambles~~

Amidst the street noise and festivities, numerous men could be seen walking through and blending in the artistically decorated streets.

They gave each other the eye from time to time as if checking themselves by.

The atmosphere was that of merry for many. But for these men, the tension was all they could feel.

And subconsciously, they gripped their bags harder while glancing around the crowd with warm smiles on their faces.

Blend in. Blend in... That was their job.

~Crunch~

Poison Blade bit into the juicy apple in his hands, enjoying its hearty taste. The juice from the apple was indeed superbly rich, and its taste was delightful as well.

No doubt about it, this apple had taken in all the good summer moisture and nutrients it could.

But rather than enjoying the apple, Poison Blade was more focused on observing their surroundings just in case someone found them suspicious or were tailing them.

Their primary focus was still these police people.

Staying clear from their sight before infiltration was the best thing that they could hope for.

At present, they were indeed in District C... And had gotten here from District D, they had used the train.

Yes! While hiring several cabs to take them around seemed like a good idea, it was far more suspicious than having a train transport them and maybe hundreds of others at once.

Additionally, the trains were faster and wouldn't get stuck in any traffic. So this alone would ensure that they got to their targeted destination before scheduled.

Scarface looked at his watch deeply.

Time! Time... They were 10 minutes behind schedule.

Dammit!

They only had half an hour or a little more before the wedding procession bypassed around their point of infiltration in District B.

  .

You see, one might think that it wasn't a problem.

But once the bride or her entourage of people passed by there, they would undoubtedly do so with a massive crowd of people.

Some people would decide to trail behind the celebration, while others might choose to drive their vehicles behind too, since they wanted to watch the wedding in the palace.

Meaning that there should probably be a ton of guards stationed across the main roads of District B, stopping them from going into the District.

Poison Blade threw his apple into one of the public trash bins and picked up his speed even more while walking beside Scarface: "Boss! As discussed, the guards have been stationed across the main roads all day long in preparation for the big day."

Scarface nodded his head in agreement: "Hmhm... So this also means that their primary focus should be the main roads. Without a doubt, these weaklings will gather more guards across the roads rather than within the woods. And this alone is what will give us an advantage!"

Poison Blade smiled cruelly: "Yes, boss. But we need to get there before the procession passes by. Because when that happens, these guards will be at their highest pique of vigilance!"

Scarface nodded his head in agreement. 

Throughout their time here, he had a thorough understanding of how incompetent these guards were.

They had scouted around and even observed how the guards within several buildings and establishments acted.

And truth be told, he was too disappointed, to say the least.

These guards weren't scary and would smile with others or even help old ladies and men carry their things or open doors for them.

Shameful! Shameful! Shameful!

He had never been so embarrassed for anyone in his life, until now.

As men with power, shouldn't they be the ones opposing people here and there?

Where was their dignity?

.

Scarface distorted his face in disgust 

Well, what would they expect from Baymard that was also kept as a hostage for the other big empires?

They reckoned that the real powerful guards from the other empires should be around the prisons. And this was probably why district B was off-limits to everyone except those visiting the prisons.

It could be said that the Morg genius would definitely be in that place.

But... No matter how scary these people think they were, they were certainly no match for them who got trained by the T.O.E.P.

Yes! Scarface was sure that with their skills, they would be able to infiltrate the perimeters of District B with no problems... But before that, they also needed to ensure that they did so before the procession passed by.

It was human nature to subconsciously give in to 'laxity' a few moments before a big event.

If one said, they were about to welcome the greatest Monarch into their palace. 

Then at that moment before the Monarch's arrival, even though they were all gathered at the front of the waiting place, their entire lives would be to look ahead.

At that moment, even their guards would get distracted while waiting for the majestic person to arrive.

Of course, after they could spot the person, they would then maintain their highest point of vigilance ever, in order to protect the person and themselves too.

And that moment of disturbance/laxity/ or wait period was the time they wanted to utilize while infiltrating the place.

For sure, if it were them, they wouldn't have any wait periods since they were exceptionally trained in Morgany against this.

It was human nature to act in this way and concentrate its entire focus on one thing when waiting for it in anticipation.

And this was a deadly flaw for Assassins of their calibre because in just these few moments, an enemy might attack.

You see, in Morgany, they had been trained to go against the human norm... But in Pyno, he doubted they would've had any profound lessons like these.

Bottom line, the defence within district B should be weakest around this time, just before the procession passes by!

.

Thinking of how much time they had left, Scarface began speeding up until he was practically running.

But within this mighty and busy street crowd, even his actions weren't too difficult to guess, as many also ran in different directions for various reasons. 

Some wanted to find a better view within District C while waiting for the procession, while others had personal matters to look after.

In short, the packed sidewalks were too busy at this time.

And without a doubt, Scarface and his men used it to their advantage.

Now, they had to infiltrate District B!0
