Naomi was waiting for Velian near the gate of his mansion. She greatly got along with Velian's family but still, she had her duties to fulfil. Jenny had a major promotion due to her active participation in the campaign so, she was happy to let Naomi go, without bothering her for today.

"Did you put her in the cell as I ordered you to?" Velian asked while walking with Naomi.

"Yes, just like master said I ordered two of our guards to take her to the prison," She was in her serious and working mood when she answered him.

"That's good, Naomi, I want you to control the underworld and our firm in this territory, don't worry I will take you to our mainland when the time is right, for now, I want you to work here," She nodded her head at his words. Naomi was excited to see the city others were talking about but she wasn't the type to disobey orders for her curiosity.

They were walking in the direction of the guard quarters. At first, most of the soldiers in this territory resisted our army and attempted to attack us, but after seeing their hated discount die and someone taking control they felt no need to fight anymore.

Harold the chief guard was one of the reputable men in the city and, even though he did his job as the chief, his report wasn't corrupted like some officials or nobles.

"We should avoid any information leak, otherwise it will be dangerous for our objective," Naomi nodded accepting his orders.

They entered the prison but, unlike what they expected there was a huge commotion in that area. Naomi decided to ask one of the soldiers about what happened there.

"Vice-president, One of the prisoners escaped, we don't know what to do, the two who were assigned to accompany her are highly injured," He was in hurry to inform her about this.

Naomi looked at Velian's face to check whether he was upset about this but he wasn't panicked or anything about this.

"Looks like our information system isn't good as we thought," Velian was analysing the whole situation.

"I'm really sorry, master, I will immediately find her," She quickly left to avoid her escaping from the city.

*Sigh

"I hope the empire initiates their attack before the kingdom gets to know about us, I could defeat but then my plan to increase human resources would fail," He thought while going to treat the two injured soldiers.

Hannah didn't expect my life to turn out like this. She was the daughter of a viscount so she never experienced a harsh life like this until now. She was cursing remembering the handsome face of Velian.

"Uncle, he killed my family, We should get revenge on him," Hannah said while sobbing, her heart clenched remembering her father and mother.

"We will first escape from here, I promised your mother that I will protect you if something happened to you,"

"I can't let you go and kill yourself, We will strengthen ourselves first,"

"You can inform about it to the kingdom and attack these people, they are too powerful for us to face them alone," Hannah was protected by a middle-aged-looking man. He was the one who helped her to escape prison.

This middle-aged man was called Norman, he was Anna's brother and he was the guild master of the adventurer guild. Even though he was the brother of Anna he wasn't investigated because his criminal record was non-existent, he was a reputable man among the adventurers and citizens.

There are two guilds in many of the kingdoms. One of them is the adventurer guild while another one is the merchants guild.

The adventuring guild basically provides all the necessary facilities for the adventurers while the merchants guild controls the economy and businesses but none of them is above the nobles or royalty.

Most of the time adventurers and merchants are like the two sides of the same coin. They cannot survive without each other even though most of the time, they tend to fight with each other.

"Stop! Identify yourself," The guards shouted at him while holding the hilt of their swords.

Norman was thinking of avoiding any fights because he will be easily overwhelmed if they call all of their troops.

"We are from a near village, her mother is not well so we wanted to visit her," The guards were on high alert but luckily for Norman they still didn't know about the prison break that happened.

Hannah was covering her whole face with a rag so that she won't get caught. Norman bowed his head and tried to leave.

"Stop! Guards hold them," Naomi was the one to order them this time.

Norman had seen this girl beside that boy, so he tried to attack her when she got close but Naomi's extraordinary movements prevented her from getting injured.

Naomi wasn't a fan of swords so her main weapon was a pair of daggers. Her fighting style was more inclined toward assassination than fighting head-on.

The night brought an absolute advantage for Naomi so she had no doubts about her attacks.

The guild master was more powerful than her but he was mainly used to fighting in head-on battles. Even in his adventuring days, he had a pretty straightforward role.

*Zing

Naomi was sending throwing daggers at him but he managed to dodge many of them even though a few managed to graze his face. Norman was getting frustrated with all the time he is spending fighting her because if the army is alarmed, they would instantly gang up on him.

Naomi decided to close the distance a little but it was her mistake to underestimate the opponent even though he was greatly weakened without high proper armour.

He quickly swung his sword in the direction which she was charging from. Even though her blade managed to pierce his hand, Naomi also got her shoulder injured by his blade.

Hannah was scared by this turn of events, She was hiding in a corner looking at the fight and hoping that Norman would win it.

Norman quickly dropped a small pouch which released smelly smoke and created a smoke wall to prevent vision.

He quickly took Hannah's hand and left the city quickly groaning in pain. Other guards were also stunned by this smoke. It had the effect of numbing the vision so those with lower ranks were highly affected by it.

Naomi tried to follow him but she was stopped by Velian.

"Let them go, More importantly, you're injured, come here I will treat you," Velian finished treating the two injured soldiers and decided to help Naomi to search for Hannah.

He didn't expect to see the guild master protecting her, at first, Velian had a positive impression of him, but now he was on his blacklist to break his hands because he injured one of his treasured people.

"Bring me your greatest army, kingdom folks," Velian thought while looking at the non-existent gate.
