"..."
Gazing at the two battered corpses in front of him, then at the innocent-looking Hidden Dragon lying on the ground nearby, Sunan couldn't help but twitch his lips.
Through the connection with his magical pet, he had a rough idea of what had happened.
The two assassins, upon climbing over the courtyard wall, were immediately discovered by the Hidden Dragon sleeping in the yard.
Initially, it only observed out of curiosity, but when the two approached the corridor and drew their weapons, it deemed them enemies and attacked fiercely, resulting in their swift demise.
"... Remember to leave one alive next time."
Sunan patted the Hidden Dragon's head and refocused his attention on the two corpses.
Judging by the muscle density and bone strength of the bodies, both were formal Knights, and at least at the Senior Knight level.
To send two high-level Knight assassins at once, and have the motive to do so, the mastermind behind this was obvious.
