Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
While the elves talked among themselves, Commander Elven, who stood first in line, paid and took out an exquisite coffee mug from the cabinet next to the counter.
The rich milk fragrance mingled with coffee aroma permeated the air.
“Sniff!” In the new shop in Canglan City, the elves sitting on the sofa sniffed forcefully.
“What’s it?”
“Ugh? How come it smells so good?!” The elves sitting on the couches with disdain on their faces looked over.
The elf who brought fruits with him also looked over in puzzlement, pausing in his act of biting into his fruit.
Soon, they saw Sala and other elves walking over, each holding a mug of Cappuccino.
The members of Golden Griffin Knight Legion each had one mug of Cappuccino as well.
The rich aroma of milk and coffee filled the whole shop.
The elf eating fruit inhaled deeply twice.
The elf named Ginz in the Elder Guard Team was at a loss for words.
Lance, the captain of Snow Pigeon Team, also sat down with a mug of Cappuccino and casually sipped with enjoyment.
The soft milky flavor melted on their tongues, and the bitter taste of coffee turned into the rich and lingering aftertaste. “Ahh…”
They almost screamed at the great taste!
How come it tastes so good?
“??!!” Seeing their intoxicated expressions, the other elves who hadn’t drank it yet swallowed their saliva silently. “Um… Hahahaha! This smells so good! Should we try it too?”
“What’s this?! Cheese?! How come there’s a floral pattern on it?” Elder Sewell’s beautiful big eyes stared at Sala’s coffee and saw the image of a small black cat on the top.
Isn’t it a beverage?! How come it looks so cute?
Immediately, they each bought one mug and began sipping with great enjoyment. “Ah! It smells so good!”
…
While the elves, knights, and a.s.sa.s.sins enjoyed their beautiful morning, some people were not so lucky.
At this moment, Luther sat in the underground prison in Grey Eagle City with a ferocious expression on his face.
His face was distorted in a fury.
These d.a.m.n a.s.sa.s.sins! If not for these people, I wouldn’t have been moved to this place! As an amba.s.sador of the Radiant Light G.o.dly Nation, I was actually sent to this desolate place to do the investigation, which will indefinitely postpone my own work!
He couldn’t bear it.
Before him was the a.s.sa.s.sins who they had captured earlier.
Covered in wounds, some of them seemed to have pa.s.sed out.
“Mr. Luther!” A knight hurried in. “I’ve got some clues!”
“Ugh?” Luther’s small eyes rolled and turned to him as he asked, “What clues?”
The knight quickly whispered something to him.
“We found that Altair seems to be these a.s.sa.s.sins’ pioneer. They follow the creed of ‘nothing is true, everything is permitted"”
Soon, the knight told him every detail that had been found out. “My men overheard these from the conversations among the a.s.sa.s.sins; I think most of the information is true.”
Luther nodded and then gestured to one guard. “Wake him up.”
Nodding, the guard woke the prisoner up with a bucket of cold water.
The a.s.sa.s.sin opened his eyes slowly and saw a fat guy leaning over to him and asking, “Who is Altair?”
“Um… I don’t know.” He shook his head repeatedly.
“Ahh-!” He screamed when the whip lashed on him.
“I ask again; who is Altair?” Luther’s voice was colder.
“Ah! I don’t know who Altair is!” The a.s.sa.s.sin screamed when another lash landed on him viciously.
“You don’t know?! I will tell you the consequences of you not knowing?!”
More screams rose. A long while later, Luther asked again coldly, “Do you know Altair?”
“I… do.”
“Who is he?” Pleased, Luther leaned over him immediately and asked.
“Um…” The a.s.sa.s.sin was stupefied. “I really don’t know about this!”
“Whip him! You don’t know the great mentor and pioneer of you a.s.sa.s.sins? Are you an a.s.sa.s.sin or not? Are you kidding me?! Whip him harder!”
“Ahh-!” More shrill screams came from the cell.
– Three minutes later –
“Do you know who Altair is?” Luther looked even colder.
“I…do!”
“Who is he?!”
“He’s the great mentor and pioneer of our a.s.sa.s.sins!” The a.s.sa.s.sin yelled.
“Humph! It seems like you know him!” Luther sneered. “You dare to play tricks on me and play dumb? Now I ask you – do you know who Ezio is?”
“I don’t know…” The a.s.sa.s.sin looked baffled.
“Ah-!” He screamed when another lash landed on him.
“You are telling me that you don’t know the master a.s.sa.s.sin, the great Eagle of Florence?!” Luther roared in fury, “Whip him!”
– Three minutes later –
“Do you know who Ezio is?”
“I… I do!” The a.s.sa.s.sin howled immediately.
“Tell me!”
“He’s our master a.s.sa.s.sin and the great Eagle of Florence!” the a.s.sa.s.sin howled immediately as if he was scared of being slow.
“Then, tell me about their plans!”
“This… I really don’t know… Ahh–!”
“Hit him! Beat him hard!”
– Ten minutes later –
“Ahh-! I’ll tell you everything!
“Altair is our great a.s.sa.s.sin mentor and the pioneer of a.s.sa.s.sins! He changed the code of conduct for a.s.sa.s.sins in every respect and understood the real a.s.sa.s.sin’s creed…”
“Ezio is the great Eagle of Florence and a master a.s.sa.s.sin! It was him who rea.s.sembled the Brotherhood and understood the true meaning of ‘nothing is true, everything is permitted’…”
He was fluent with his answer without being asked.
Greatly satisfied, Luther nodded and said with a cold smile, “See? You know everything… Now, tell me…”
“I…”
“!!??” These are the things that you told me; what else can I tell you?!
The a.s.sa.s.sin’s face turned ashen, and he pa.s.sed out.
“Mr. Luther, he pa.s.sed out…”
“If I continue beating him, would he…” The knight was afraid that they couldn’t get anything useful if they beat the prisoner to death.
“I’ll interrogate that one!” Luther pointed at another a.s.sa.s.sin.
After waking him up with cold water, Luther glared at him with a distorted expression as he asked, “Do you know who Altair is?!”
“I…”
“???”
