I smell some inside politics at play here.

Soon, a meeting was arranged where all the Core members of the ExceedoGenesis were called. The entire situation was described again. Then once this was done, Nux questioned with a serious look on his face.

"So? How are we going to start with this mission? Do any of you have any ideas?"

"Isn't it simple? It is not like there are countless leads we have to choose from. We only have one lead, and that is the Assassination Mission received by the Shadow of Silence. We just need to go after the person who posted this mission. Of course, that person is most probably just a proxy, but we can always trace it back to the original culprit."

Thyra spoke out loud.

Most of the women in the room agreed with her reasoning, Melia, however, shook her head.

"What are we, the Ancestral Order? Do you really think we would be able to trace back to the real culprit with our current power?

Don't be naïve, Thyra."

Everyone turned towards the Vampire Duke Princess.
