Hunting for Shade (20)

In the meantime, Erik and June already got to where the meeting was going to take place.

"This must have been the town hall," Erik said.

It made sense. The meeting was likely going to be huge, and they needed a space adequate enough to ensure everyone could listen to Shade talk.

"I see the main entrance there," June said.

"Do you see anything we could use to enter?"

"Nothing that isn't guarded."

If Erik could simply kill the guards, he would be thrilled about it. He wasn't willing to take the risk of dealing with these individuals and blow up his cover, despite the potential reduction in street criminals.

Until now, every time Erik went somewhere, there weren't as many people as now.

The risk of someone hearing the battle, or glimpsing at him and June scaling walls, was high right now.

"Then we go through the main door. Do you have the onyx sculpture?"

"I do, Master."

"Good, then follow me and act as my guard."
