Chapter 477 Humiliation
With the guidance of intelligence, infiltrating Harvest City was not difficult.
But Tuscalola knew that entering the city was only the beginning.
The real challenge lies in figuring out how to see through the duchess's bait and trap.
Although Tuscarola doesn't like going out much, she has visited quite a few cities.
In particular, by utilizing the power of the Radiant Realm, she can quickly travel to all parts of the world, which makes it easy for her to experience the customs of different regions.
However, Tuscarola, being a green-eyed person, disliked all local customs.
Therefore, Tuscarola can be considered worldly-wise.
Of all the cities she visited, Harvest City was the least distinctive.
An unremarkable bakery, an unremarkable butcher shop; the streets aren't perfectly straight, but they're not chaotic either.
Everything was so ordinary, with almost nothing memorable.
But perhaps this is what makes Harvest City so special.
However, Tuscalola noticed one thing: the residents here seemed unaffected by the war.
As Tuscarola traveled north, wherever his lord went, prices soared and the people frowned in despair.
But here, everything is as usual.
I've heard that war can lead to lords temporarily increasing taxes. Could it be that the Lorraine family simply doesn't exploit the people?
Tuscarola couldn't confirm, but no one here would laugh at her because she was a woman.
Of course, what Tuscarola hates are people who mock her height.
Tuscarola had heard many rumors about the Lorraine family, and now she was certain of one thing.
This family is really very rich.
The Lorraine family's castle is very magnificent; locals say it was renovated in recent decades.
It's worth noting that most castles Tuscalola has seen haven't been renovated even once every few centuries.
In short, Tuscarola has been here for many days.
The most basic investigation has been completed, and a plan has been formulated in mind.
Now, she plans to begin implementation.
This gave Tuscarola a small sense of pride; perhaps she could already be considered a capable assassin on her own.
Intelligence indicates that any military intelligence delivered to Harvest City will be distributed to five different locations within the city.
This was simply to prevent the assassins from figuring out where the real Brianna Lorraine was hiding.
Unfortunately, the new Duke of the Plains rarely made public appearances, so Tuscarola did not have a portrait of her; otherwise, she could have sneaked in and observed him with her own eyes.
However, if Tuscarola were to act rashly, the person she killed might not be her target.
Then the duchess would certainly be on her guard.
Once the opponent strengthens their defenses, even Tuscarola may not be able to find an opportunity to strike for a while.
Tuscarola has come up with a solution to this problem.
Since Tuscarola can't find the other party on his own initiative, why not just let the other party expose themselves?
That's right, all intelligence will be sent to five different places.
Tuscarola guessed that there must also be five people in those five places whose clothing, mannerisms, and speech were very similar.
Only in this way can the enemy be completely misled.
However, Tuscarola knew very well that of these five people, only one could make the decision and send the intelligence to the front lines.
In other words, Tuscalola only needs to find out where the military orders came from.
All five locations are within the castle.
To get the answers, Tuscalola must keep an eye on these locations.
Entering the castle by force would not be difficult for Tuscarola.
However, the risk of her exposure would also increase significantly.
To infiltrate, she would need a legitimate identity.
Although Tuscarola hates it when people say she's short, she has to admit that a short girl can indeed give off a harmless impression.
Even if she loudly proclaimed herself an assassin, the other party would probably just laugh and shrug, not believing her at all.
In fact, Tuscarola has encountered this kind of thing many times.
But this time, she might be able to exploit her weakness.
The best way to enter the castle is to become a part of it.
And she seemed capable of becoming a maid in the Lorraine family.
She has already applied for a job at the castle.
Thanks to the fake identity those people helped her create, Tuscarola was not suspected.
And, a few days later, I received a job offer.
Right now, Tuscarola is standing in front of the dressing room, being dressed in a white maid outfit.
The old woman tightly wrapped her belt around her waist, causing her to cry out in pain.
Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.
"Oh, you little glutton, you never seem to be able to control your cravings," the old maid shook her head. "Look, you've got a little belly!"
It's none of your business!
Normally, Tuscarola would have glared at her fiercely.
But for the sake of assassination—
"what!"
As the old maid exerted force, Tuscarola screamed again.
Tuscarola vowed to exact this pain and humiliation upon the duchess.
Finally, Tuscarola put on a dress.
The old maid touched her face and said, "Hmm, very pretty, but the color of her eyes—is a bit unlucky."
O
Tuscarola therefore disliked the old maid.
However, Tuscarola couldn't help but glance at herself in the mirror.
This was the prettiest dress she had ever worn, and although she knew she wasn't a stunning beauty like Anne, she still loved pretty dresses.
Tuscarola looked at her reflection and even felt a little shy.
But I am an assassin—Tuscarola shook his head—he had to eradicate that weak thought from his mind!
And so, Tuscarola successfully infiltrated the Lorraine family's castle.
She had already thoroughly mastered the structure of the castle.
She knew the route to the Duke's bedroom like the back of her hand.
But she still needed to familiarize herself with the terrain, because who knows, that wealthy duchess might have altered the castle's layout again?
Moreover, Tuscarola must control the allocation of personnel within the castle.
This way, we can better monitor those five locations.
But----
Faced with bowls of dirty dishes being delivered, Tuscarola began to question the meaning of life.
The job of a maid is not what she imagined.
It shouldn't be like the story Anne told, where someone serves the young lady or takes care of the handsome young nobleman's daily life.
"Don't be lazy, get to work!" the plump head maid shouted at Tuscarola.
I'm an assassin! You should be afraid of me!
But—she cannot reveal it.
Tuscarola, feeling deeply aggrieved, started rubbing soap bubbles on the dirty plate.
At that moment, another pile of cups was placed in front of her.
Tuscarola vowed to kill Brianna Lorraine.
Then, scrub the cups until they shine brightly.
