Chapter 522
It felt like the calm before the storm.
James had a strong feeling that Cansington would be chaos in no time.
All the different armies, political parties, and forces would be gathered there.
“May.”
“Yes, James?”
James drummed his fingers on the table, deep in thought.
“Is it possible for you to get in touch with any assassins from the Dark Castle?”
May nodded. “I could get in touch with some of them.”
James said, “Get in touch with them now. Say that you’re having trouble in Cansington and require
backup.”
James had to recruit some experts.
Assassins from the Dark Castle were a solid choice.
“Got it.” May obeyed.
She typed out a short message on her phone

“ck Snake, I have failed my mission and blown my cover. I’ve killed the middleman. I’m hiding out in
Cansington now, but I’m injured. Please help me escape.”
After she crafted the message, she keyed in a number and sent it out.
James watched as she sent the message, asking, “Who’s ck Snake?”
May said, “An SSS-ranked assassin from the Dark Castle. He’s the best assassin the Dark Castle has
trained. He’s ranked third in the world and has never failed any mission.”
“What’s ck Snake like? Can we recruit him?”
“Uh…” May hesitated,
Based on what she understood about ck Snake, he was not someone easily recruited. He was loyal
to the Dark Castle, Besides being an assassin, he was also the deputy leader of the Dark Castle
Jarnes looked at her and asked, “What’s going on?”
May hesitated before taking a deep breath “It won’t be easy. ck Snake isn’t just an SSS ranked
assassin, but he’s the deputy leader as well. Besides the mysterious leader, ck Snake takes care of
everything,
“Oh?”
James looked at May
“If he’s the deputy, why did you text him? Aren’t you afraid the Dark Castle wille after you with all
they have?”

May was about to answer when her phone beeped. She looked at it only to discover that it was a string
of numbers. James looked at them, asking, “What do they mean?”
May exined, “It’s a code. Only those from the Dark Castle will be able to decipher it.”
“What did ck Snake say?”
“He said that rules are rules. Since my cover is blown, I should die. And I shouldn’t have killed the
middleman. However, he will do his best toe to Cansington and help me escape. He even wants to
help me cut ties with the Dark Castle and leave the country.”
James asked, “Who are you to him?”
May said, “We’re both orphans. The Dark Castle bought us. We’ve been training together since we
were kids. As assassins, we should be cold and unfeeling, but we’re just like brother and sister.”
“Ask him when he can get here.”
“Okay.”
May replied immediately.
This time, she did not send the message in words, but in odd symbols instead. James could not
recognize any of the symbols or numbers, but he memorized them. He would get someone to decipher
the codeter on. May used to be an assassin. She may be under his employ now, but he was not sure
if he could trust herpletely. She could very well invite more assassins and create more trouble for
him.
Soon, ck Snake replied.It was a string of numbers.
May said, “ck Snake said that he’s busy right now. He needs three days to get to Cansington.”
“Three days?”
James narrowed his eyes.
It was the most crucial moment of the medical conference after three days.
It was too much of a coincidence to be one.
“May, you must know that is ck Snakees to Cansington and doesn’t follow my orders, he will be
dead. If you say you’re like siblings, you’re bringing him trouble.”
James looked at May.
“I know.” May looked serious, “I’ll persuade him. I believe he’s had enough of the dark days anyway,
and would love to live out in the open.”
“Fine.”
James nodded lightly.
“Take care of your injuries. Let me know in advance if you have any news.”
