Short chapter on this one, but this is because of the point of view, so...here you go.

Enjoy!


"Good, they took the bait, and now Fanelia's king has fled, Asturia's forces in pursuit."

A young man who looked exactly like Van grinned, polishing a perfect replica of the royal sword. "That felt so satisfying. What do I get to do next? More assassinations of Fanelia's royal allies?"

"Hmmm…that would be too obvious. You have to be a little less repetitive, or you'll get caught."

Dark eyes, as black as olives, sparked in interest. "Then what next?"

A cloaked figure whispered in the teenager's ear. A wide grin that almost mirrored that of Dilandau, who had disappeared at the end of the Destiny War, appeared on the imposter's face. A high-pitched cackle unlike Van's, which was the only other difference, escaped his lips as he sheathed his sword, turning towards the door. "I get it. Very clever."

"Now go, Assassin King."

"Already gone."
