"You can contact me again once you reach Vizima."
Although he knew the other party was Foltest's head spy, he didn't fully trust him.
With Guilliman's strength, he didn't need the other party to arrange a retreat... That night, the Witcher, who had already scouted the location, changed into a pure black stealth suit, put on his Nightingale mask, and without even wearing basic armor, arrived directly at Maribor's Prince's castle.
At this time, he possessed over 1,500 soul points. As a supernatural being, as long as enemies didn't attack his brain and heart, causing him fatal injuries,
he could recover his body nearly a hundred times, essentially having a hundred lives, and thus clear an Assassin's Creed-style castle.
This was a guaranteed commission; even if he charged head-on into the castle, eliminating all the castle guards, he was confident he could kill everyone who resisted inside.
Let alone an assassination.
Under the cover of night, the Nightingale mask enveloped Guilliman's body in a layer of black shadow, almost blending with the darkness.
Looking at the seven or eight-meter-high city wall, he was too lazy to climb it with his own physical strength. Instead, he activated the Leap Badge that Francesca had sold him, leaping up and floating in the air.
This magical badge could be used once every two hours, allowing the wearer to fly at low altitude for about three minutes, perfectly suited for stealth operations in complex terrain like this.
According to the map provided by Thaler, Guilliman flew directly towards the tallest and most luxurious tower in the castle.
It was still brightly lit at this time.
As Prince Yurkast's bedchamber, it was likely either him or someone very close to him who was there.
However, as Guilliman flew high into the sky, he suddenly felt something and looked down at a spot a hundred meters below him.
At the main gate of the Prince's castle, a carriage was driving out of the castle towards the city's outskirts.
And a tall, bald, muscular man, whose clothing style was very different from that of Northerners, sat at the front of the carriage, as if he also had some kind of psychic connection between strong individuals, looking up at his position in mid-air.
But a few seconds later, as if it were an illusion, the bald strongman retracted his gaze and rode out of the city in the carriage, seemingly oblivious.
Until the other party disappeared from sight, Guilliman no longer paid attention to him. Instead, he climbed down vertically from the tower's roof, observing the situation inside through a skylight on the roof.
However, what the Witcher didn't know was that after that carriage left Maribor City, a young man with glasses and cold eyes asked the bald strongman.
"Lord Javed, did you see anything just now?"
Azar Javed, the leader of the Salamandra gang, shrugged, saying indifferently:
"I felt a magic fluctuation. It must be someone using a magical artifact to infiltrate Prince Yurkast's castle."
"It seems tonight won't be peaceful there."
The professional assassin, known by many as 'The Professor', was startled and then said:
"Is it an assassin?"
"Lord Javed, should we inform His Highness the Prince so he doesn't get hurt?"
Javed, however, shook his head indifferently upon hearing this, continuing to drive the carriage forward, saying:
"Don't bother. It's none of our business."
"The war between Maribor and Vizima is inevitable. The Kingdom of Temeria is bound to fall into chaos because of the war."
"Lord Dijkstra has other plans to execute."
"Our current mission is to return to the Kingdom of Redania and continue with the Witcher soldier mutation experiments."
"Ms. Philippa will assist us in researching the Witcher formula."
"Once the Witcher soldier project is complete, we will be able to create a powerful army, an invincible heavily armored army."
"By then, whether it's these clowns from the Northern Kingdoms or those black-clad bastards from Nilfgaard,"
"with their military strength, they will no longer be our opponents."
"Our Salamandra gang will also get what we want."
Guilliman, who had infiltrated the Prince's castle, didn't know that he had just missed the notorious leader of the Salamandra gang.
He was currently lying on the skylight of the tower's roof, discovering that a meeting was taking place in the council hall.
Fortunately, besides Prince Yurkast, who was currently in the meeting hall, two other targets from Thaler's list were also in the hall below.
This meant that if he jumped down and eliminated everyone in the council hall, he could complete the commission and collect a two-thousand-oren bounty as a bonus.
Of course, if he did that, with so many people in the council hall, there would surely be a commotion.
The assassination would turn into an open attack, and he estimated he would need to fight his way out through layers of guards.
But it didn't matter; the berserker stealth method was also a type of stealth assassination.
As long as he eliminated all the guards, it would count as a perfect assassination.
Moreover, Guilliman didn't plan to be sneaky about tonight's operation.
After all, the more enemies he eliminated and the greater the casualties he caused, the more formidable and threatening he, Master Witcher, would appear.
