“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.

“No! You can’t!”

Magnus rejected her offer without hesitation.

“Why not?”

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

“It’s not that!

Before she could continue her impassioned speech, Magnus interrupted her, his tone calm yet firm. “It’s your figure. The cultists of the Five Poison Sect are all men. Your body stands out too much–your curves are too noticeable. Anyone would immediately know you’re not a man!”

Hearing this reasoning, Solana Couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

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.

“Well, it seems that for such a challenging task, I’ll have to step up instead!”

Quintus pounded his chest confidently, volunteering himself as the best candidate.

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.”
