NovelEnglishChapter 202:
Norah left out the details about the two men’s attempt to assault Alice. She only shared that she was the one
who took Alice to the hospital.
“Doing a good deed once in a while nearly gotkilled.” Alice winced from the discomfort of her injury, her
expression tinged with sadness. “I sometimes miss our old days in the organization, when we could do as we
pleased, shielded by our assassin identities. If we didn’t like someone, we simply got rid of them.”
Back then, Alice was unfamiliar with kindness, her mind always focused on completing her missions.
Norah gently ran her fingers through Alice’s hair. “But Alice, don’t you think it’s better to be free? To do as you
wish without any limits?”
In the organization, failing to meet objectives always resulted in penalties.
Norah, a citizen of Cesland, had endured a lot of hardship from an early age to develop her abilities. Given the
choice, she’d never join the organization. It was too painful and exhausting. Many times, she considered ending

way.
Tears quietly filled Alice’s eyes. “Norah, you just don’t get it.”
“It's been years since we last met. Why talk about the organization now? Let's focus on more joyful topics.”
“Alright. Thanks again for saving me.”

Whenever Alice was hurt on missions with Norah, it was always Norah who cto Alice's aid. It was fair to say
Norah treated most of Alice's injuries.
“No need to be polite. After you're better, cand visitin Cesland,” Norah said.
“That sounds wonderful. I've always wanted to see Cesland, but without any news from you, going there seemed
like a far-off dream,” Alice revealed.
That was the reason she had stayed in Lochdeer, Orland, holding onto the hope that if Norah ever returned,
they’d have the chance to meet again.
“Let's make sure we stay in contact. If you ever need help, just letknow.” Norah brandished her phone.
“Since you're hurt, | decided to extend my stay in Otland for another two weeks to look after you. If anything like
this happens again, be sure to call me.”
The bullet injuries Alice suffered were significantly worse than those Kaiden and Kasan endured. The amount of
blood lost could have filled a large bowl.
Alice made a grim joke. “Seems like getting injured is a way to earn your attention. Maybe | could handle a bit
more pain.”
“Please drop that harmful idea, okay? Thinking about getting injured isn’t right. You need to get better fast so
you can cto seein Cesland.”
“Hey, Norah, did you notice a group of people wearing black robes outside the café yesterday?”
Norah wouldn't have missed them. They were tailing Phillip.

Before Norah could answer, Alice said, “If I'm not mistaken, from the Sacredice?”
Norah nodded. “The Sacredice,” she confirmed.
It was a shadowy global intelligence organization known to Norah for its dealings in worldwide intelligence and
contract killings.
Its operations were so secretive that she didn’t expect its members to show themselves so openly.
“Yes, rumor had it that the Sacredice’s headquarters is in Otland, but that’s all hearsay, nothing confirmed.” In
the world of mercenaries, the Sacredice was infamous. They offered jobs with generous rewards, smeant for
their own operatives, while others were available to external mercenaries or groups.
But the Sacredice was shrouded in secrecy.
Norah only knew that the Sacredice had four directors.
“This terrorist attack seems to have caught the attention of the Sacredice,” Alice reflected. “I once thought about
joining the Sacredice. But they select their members through their own channels and don’t hold open
recruitments.”
