Chapter 141
‘What kind of woman is she?’
As I hid in the cargo area of the lead carriage, I pondered why this mysterious masked woman was doing all of this.
No clear answer came to mind. Injuring mercenaries and mages to the brink of death but not killing them, leaving the caravan members untouched, destroying the carriages yet not stealing any of the goods—none of it made sense according to what I knew.
‘Is she trying to avoid escalating the situation?’
If the caravan were seriously looted or if dozens of merchants were killed, it would no longer be a matter for mercenaries, but knights would be dispatched instead. Maybe she’s trying to avoid such a situation.
A cautious voice came from outside the carriage. I pulled my hood down low and put on a mask. It was to hide my identity, just like the woman. It wouldn’t be advantageous to reveal who I was just yet.
"You’ve explained the plan to everyone, right?"
"Yes, everyone involved has been briefed."
I decided to use this caravan as bait to observe the woman's behavior firsthand. It was the largest in size but carried the least valuable goods.
Though bait usually involves risking lives, those who had been attacked for the past few weeks had gotten used to it, knowing they wouldn’t be killed. They accepted the role without complaint.@@@@
