Chapter 1228

The arduous journey lasted a day and a night long. Olivia took a break

under a tree.

In contrast to their prosperous country, it was desolate behind the

mountain.

She had been to many places and seen various sights. She had

witnessed both happiness and encountered poor kids who lost their

homes due to wars.

She spent her free time helping out people in need.

She donated goods to the disaster areas and schools for the poor kids.

She established organizations to help pitiful women and cared for the

homeless.

It still pained her to see the desolate scene. There was a limit to her

helping all the needy people in the world all by herself.

"You're such a hard nut to crack. You're an assassin yourself, yet you

sympathize with those people.” A voice broke her reverie.

Her head shot upward. Undecim, who was awake, handed her a bottle

of water. "No mission failure. Only mission success. Don't you dare be

the good guy and ruin our progress.”

"Got it."

She took a break before suggesting, “Let's go."

Dexim City—the most dangerous city—was Olivia's destination.

Sothpia was a small country surrounded by big countries. In addition to

its lack of international relations, it exposed this weak country to danger

and threats at any moment.

Dexim City had a strategic location on the edge of Sothpia. Carathia

had been eyeing it.

The moment Dexim City was conquered, it posed a huge threat to

Arlandia.

That was why the war in Sothpia didn't cease for months.

The parties were vying over the natural gas and oil resources, including

that strategic city.

International wars didn't bother The Black Ravens. It was an

independent organization paid to carry out missions.

It was late at night by the time Olivia and Undecim arrived in Dexim

City. The smoke in the area alone was enough to tell that a fight had

just ended.

"Are you sure about coming to this kind of place?" Her brows furrowed.

If they entered the city at this time, a grenade could blow them away at

any moment.

“This is our only chance to get close to Wayne. Once he returns to the

country, there's no way we can do so. The spies have confirmed his

whereabouts. He's bringing his men in for a life-or-death fight with the

Arlandians."

Olivia frowned. “Is he out of his mind? He's the boss, though. Why is he

joining the battle himself?"

"He's an oddball. Who knows what he's thinking? Are you ready?"

"Yeah." Feelings stirred in Olivia when she heard the mention of her

country.

It was her home country, after all.

Ethan and Linus have been busy recently, mainly because of the

trouble Wayyne caused.

If Olivia could Kill him in the meantime, would it help Mason and Ethan?

She already had a vague plan in her mind.

They called a truce in the city, so they seized the chance to travel to a

river in the western suburbs.

Aircrafts cut through the air while they were on their way.

Two of the aircraft whirred in the air.

From their designs, one of them belonged to Arlandia while the other

was Carathia's.

Olivia had questioned. "What are they doing? An aircraft battle?"

“Told you that Wayne has a few lost screws in his head. But why are

Arlandians doing the same crazy thing? It's not a battle, more like

settling the scores of personal grudges.”

As she stared at the Arlandian aircraft, mixed feelings churned in her

stomach.

No matter who it was in that aircraft, it was her compatriot.

It was as though her friend flew in the sky as the thunderous sound cut

through the air.

Chills ran down her spine.

The two aircraft flew farther, slowly vanishing from Olivia's sight.

Soon after, something exploded. They fell like two fireballs from the

horizon.

"Are you sure Wayne is in that aircraft?" Olivia turned to ask Undecim.

"Yes. Who else would be as crazy as him? Don't tell me he's dead from

playing his own games. Looks like luck's on our side. If we're the first to

find him, we can take the ring away."
