Assassination Plan

Warlock Ch 212. Assassination Plan

Damian and Cassius each took a ring from the pile of magical artifacts laid out on the table. The rings, while appearing mundane, were imbued with similar enchantments, enabling them to communicate across distances with a mere thought.

Damian rolled the crystal between his fingers, its cool surface belying the powerful magic contained within. "Let's hope it doesn't come to that," he muttered, though he pocketed the crystal with a nod of appreciation.

Cassius leaned over the map spread out on the table, his finger tracing the serpentine pathways that led through the Crimson Veil—a sprawling, fog-shrouded territory notorious for its secrecy and the dangerous types who found refuge within its borders.
