The wind rustled.
Two pairs of bloodthirsty eyes were staring intently at the fight between the two True Knights, constantly sizing up Liora and brushing their fingers against the daggers on their waists.
They remained silent and motionless, like a hunter that was examining their prey and waiting for an opportunity to strike.

As trained assassins, they understood very well that the best moment to attack was when the target had relaxed their guard. Therefore, they had been waiting for Liora to gain an advantage in the battle and lose her cool, or at the very least, become exhausted.
Unfortunately, the Baron's words had removed their cover, ultimately destroying their plans and making their previous efforts worthless.
