Chapter 2114 The Assassin Who Has No Sense Of Directions
The petite figure descended from the sky like a ghost with a cold, gleaming dagger in her hand. She pointed it at Auster in his bed with a clear intention.
Even though he was in deep sleep, the 10th-tier powerhouse's alertness still made Auster open his eyes instantly.
He wanted to raise his right hand instinctively, but he realized his entire right arm was already gone. He quickly grabbed his saber with his left and slashed across.
However, after his momentary mistake, it was already too late to act.
That petite black figure tossed out her dagger. The cold gleam flashed across, and it sank into Auster's heart as he struggled to get up.
The petite figure tapped the headboard with her feet, and landed lightly on the floor. The other dagger in her left hand stabbed into Auster's neck.
"Y-you…" Auster covered his neck, and glared at Connie, who lit up a beast oil lamp and removed her veil.
"In order not to lose my way, I have spent the whole day hanging up in your room. It's tiring, right?"
Connie looked at the two daggers in Auster's heart and neck, and nodded with satisfaction. "I guess Master won't scold me this time round."
Auster sat slowly, and grabbed the saber next to the bed as he stared at Connie angrily.
"Don't struggle. I've put poison on the daggers. Looking at the time, it should be acting right now," Connie said calmly.
Auster only felt a sudden pain in his heart, and all his strength seemed to be drained at that moment. He could no longer hold onto his saber. He rolled to the floor from his bed.
"Im-impossible…" Auster slumped onto the floor weakly, and looked up at Connie with a ferocious expression.
Even her father lost to him. She was just a little girl. How could she?!
He was indignant!
"You have no idea how much I have suffered in order to kill you." Connie smilingly extended her hands to show her palms that were covered with calluses and a black dagger that she held again.
Auster glared as he watched that dagger enter his glabella, and then fell backwards.
"Although I thought of many things to say, Master said the antagonists died because they talked too much. Silence is an assassin's basic demeanor." Connie retracted her gaze, and threw the beast oil lamp in her hand onto the quilt at the side.
The flames started to burn ragingly, but her figure disappeared in the dark again.
"Fire! Fire!"
"It's the chief's room! Quick, put out the fire!"
"Chief… The chief was murdered!!!"
"What happened!? Help! There's an assassin! Catch the assassin!"
The flames were 10-odd meters high, and the news of Auster's death spread rapidly. The whole Aug Tribe descended into a panic.
All the chiefs looked at the raging flames in a daze.
Auster was still talking about how to ambush and kill Connie in the day, and now he was killed all of a sudden.
"Enemy attack!!!"
A shrill alarm of the beast horn sounded at the fences, but it was silenced abruptly.
Countless torches suddenly appeared in the dark. The drawbridge was cut, the gates were opened, and countless orc warriors dashed into the Aug Tribe. The Aug Tribe's soldiers on the city walls surrendered before they could even defend themselves. The entire tribe was soon conquered.
Thousands of orcs encircled Auster's residence in layers.
The Aug Tribe's elders and the chiefs were in a complete panic. They hid in their residences, and didn't dare to appear. They only managed to regain a little of their wits now.
They thought they were the hunters, but now they finally realized they were, in fact, the prey in the trap.
Connie rode up on a white unicorn. Clearing her throat, she said, "Those inside, listen up. I'm Chief Connie of the Falk Tribe!
"Auster was a violent tyrant and a coward. I have followed the gods' orders, and sacrificed him to them!
"You are being surrounded by the most powerful and elite orc army in the Twilight Forest right now, but I will give you a chance to surrender and join the Peace Alliance.
"Put down your weapons and come out with your hands on your head. Join the Peace Alliance voluntarily, and I'll give you a chance to turn over a new leaf.
"All those who try to resist, I'll send you all as a sacrifice together with Auster!"
Right then, everyone was moved by this young chief.
Yes!
This was the quality of a leader!
There was a hint of toughness among her gentleness. Her figure was petite, but she had a commanding presence.
Rex was on a unicorn behind Connie, with a gratified smile on his face.
Only God knew how many times she had practiced that speech with him.
Soon after, dozens of tribal leaders lined up with their hands on their heads, and came out of their residences. They signed on the orcs and the Peace Alliance's treaty. Auster was already dead, and he was killed by Connie. This meant that the highest authority in the Twilight Forest had already transferred.
After tonight, only Connie's voice would be heard in the Twilight Forest.
After a brief internal conflict in the Aug Tribe, a new leader was elected, and he signed the alliance contract on behalf of the Aug Tribe with indignation.
Connie sat on the unicorn, looked down at the orc chiefs, and said in a cold voice, "Tomorrow, the Falk Tribe will hold the very first orcs' peace meeting. I hope to see all of you there."
The little figure commanded an irresistible awe.
All the chiefs nodded in agreement.
Connie looked at the new Aug Tribe's chief and elders, and coldly said, "The Aug Tribe will be temporarily taken over until I'm sure that Auster's influence is completely removed. I strongly advise all of you not to have any dissatisfaction. The result of resorting to violence will only be death."
"Yes…" The new chief lowered his head, and answered in a trembling voice.
All the elders lowered their heads too. Although they were indignant, they didn't dare to show their displeasure.
"That's all." Connie waved her hand.
A troop of orcs entered Auster's residence, and began taking over the Aug Tribe.
Connie and Rex entered the residence too.
Connie realized that they were alone, so she tilted her head, and asked Rex smilingly, "Master, how was my earlier performance?"
"Passable." Rex nodded slightly.
"I think I looked awesome." Connie pursed her lips. She wasn't satisfied with Rex's review.
"How many strikes did you use to Auster?"
"Three strikes," Connie answered casually before adding, "I thought he talked too much, so I gave him one more strike."
"You waited in ambush for him the whole day, and yet you needed to use three strikes to kill a maimed person. I'm a little disappointed in you."
"Woah. Although he was maimed, he was a 10th-tier maimed person." Connie glared.
"Then, what about the fact that you couldn't find his room because you were lost, and I had to bring you there eventually?".
"I… I was not lost. I just occasionally couldn't find my way… Look, Master. The moon is so bright tonight. I wonder if Babla will go back to the moon. It'll be great if she can bring back some more moonstones for me." Connie drew lines in front of her gently as she changed the topic.
Rex sighed. "Why did I take in a disciple who has no sense of directions?"
