Chapter 707
When the clock struck eight, the assassins made their move.
A row of figures dressed in black silently descended upon Harmony Palace, swords at the ready. The priests were
reciting their prayers in the main courtyard. By then, the noblewomen had finished burning their copies of the
scriptures. Now, swere writing while others continued to chant prayers.
Suddenly, a piercing scream shattered the stillness of the night. The ladies fell silent, their voices abruptly
cut off.
“Assassins!”
The cry sliced through the air like a dagger, echoing heavily in Eleanor’s heart. She was right in the main
courtyard, yet hadn't seen any attackers.
That meant the assassins must have infiltrated the inner and back courtyards of Harmony Palace.
As she prepared to rush outside, Rosalind stood up and seized her arm. “There are assassins out there, Grand
Princess Eleanor! It’s too dangerous!”
“Let go of me!” Eleanor spun around with a look fierce enough to shock everyone present.

Panic spread among the crowd, but the high priests and a few of the older noblewomen remained remarkably
calm.
“The guards will handle the assassins, Grand Princess Eleanor. Do not put yourself at risk. We should
continue with our Zane said steadily.
Eleanor turned to the Spirit Elder, who was seated on the platform. His head was lowered in a gesture of
compassion and devotion, yet his eyes flickered with intensity.
Realization struck Eleanor as she heard guards rushing toward the back. Her heart lurched.
Carissa’s plan wasn’t on the fifteenth
It was happening tonight!
She had deceived Henry and tricked Janice.
Carissa had sent those assassins. What was she planning? Was she going to storm the dungeons to rescue
Carmen’s mother?
The dungeons!
A wave of dread washed over Eleanor. Ignoring the protests, she bolted toward the western courtyard.
The assassins were already engaged in a fierce battle with the palace guards and soldiers. Kurt had dispatched
shousehold soldiers to protect the high priests and the noblewomen, ensuring they wouldn't be harmed in
Harmony Palace.
Molly trembled as she turned to Fiona for answers. “Why are there assassins here? I'm terrified! Should
we run?”
Fiona glanced outside at the numerous soldiers guarding the perimeters outside and replied, “Running now
would be even more dangerous. Who knows whom they're targeting?”

Many people had considered fleeing, but Fiona’s words caused them to hesitate. With so many palace soldiers
around, they were safer here than on the streets. Besides, they hadn't seen any assassins nearby. It was clear
they weren't the intended targets.
Irene led the way to continue the prayers, and the other older ladies quickly followed suit. The autumn wind blew
outside, which sounded eerily like walls.
The sounds of the struggle gradually reached them, the clash of blades accompanied by shouts
“Assassins! Assassins!”

In the darkness, two figures burst through the main door and shouted, “Help! Assassins! There are assassins!”
The noblewomen who had cas guests were alarmed by the commotion and thought the guards were losing
the battle. In a panic, they attempted to flee. However, just as they stepped outside, an arrow whizzed through
the air and struck the main door with a loud thud.
The women who had just darted out were so frightened that they nearly lost their wits. They scrambled back
inside, seven crawling on the ground.
A few assassins had reached the front courtyard and were battling the household soldiers. But for the three
assassins, fighting dozens of household soldiers was child's play. The household soldiers‘ swords barely grazed
the assassins’ clothing. The only sounds were the occasional clashing of blades. To anyone unaware, it would
look like they were just fooling around.
The assassins weren't using lethal force. They mostly disarmed their opponents, then delivered swift kicks that
sent the soldiers sprawling to the ground.
The main door swung open just then, and Michael led the capital guards inside. Tonight, Barrett happened to be
on duty and had calong to assist. As soon as they entered, they saw the clash between the assassins and
the guards.
Without hesitation, Michael drew his sword and charged in. The assassins were skilled, and the household
soldiers struggled to land a blow even with the Capital Guard's support.
Cries of pain echoed from the back courtyard, prompting Michael to shout, “To the back! There are more
assassins in the rear courtyard! Leave a few men here to protect the high priests and the noblewomen!”
