Chapter 298
Han's lips curved slightly, his blue eyes locking on Lightrunner.
"Can you bring me one of the monsters alive?" he asked, voice calm but sharp enough to cut through the tension.
Lightrunner blinked, not understanding. "Alive? Why?"
Han didn't repeat himself. He just tilted his head. "Can you?"
Lightrunner shrugged. "Yeah, I can. But what exactly are you planning to do with a monster?"
Han's reply came low, steady, confident.
"I'm going to use it... to make us a way into the city… unnoticed."
That earned him a raised brow, but Lightrunner didn't question further. He trusted the young hero enough not to.
"Alright. Give me a second," he said—and in the next heartbeat, he was gone.
Han glanced down at the cracked mask in his hand. A faint smile tugged at his lips.
Thankfully, we have this.
With the right tweaks, their odds would rise sharply. This mission might actually go smoothly for once.
