“Their buildings were clearly designed as military fortresses. If we don’t sneak in now, we’ll have to launch a full–blown assault later just to get inside!”

Magnus spoke with absolute clarity.

“I understand, Mr. Zelinsky. Let me take the lead and infiltrate them. Ell work with you from the inside to coordinate an attack from both ends!

Solana immediately volunteered with fiery determination.

Magnus rejected her offer without hesitation.

“Why not?”

Solana became visibly agitated. “Mr. Zelinsky, do you doubt my abilities? I-”

“It’s not that!

Everyone around watched her expression shift, noticing how this fiery–tempered woman now laughed with unrestrained delight. Her happiness in that moment was radiant and infectious.

Without hesitation, she accepted the order, responding with a sharp “Understood!” before heading off to

prepare.

“Unbelievable! Magnus, are you looking down on me now?”

Quintus‘ temper flared instantly.

“Not at all. I’m simply assigning tasks based on each person’s strengths, Magnus replied with a composed smile. “Besides, Quintus, you’re our trump card. We’ll need you to make a grand entrance later. This isn’t the time for you to act.”
