"So, what did you want to discuss with me, Mr. Cerni?" Rui asked tentatively.

"I wish to discuss the modus operandi that I hope you will be engaging in when completing the mission," Feruir Cerni replied. "I wish for you to spare the lives of the crew of the convoy while wearing a particular Martial garb of another nation. I require you to kill the Martial Squire, followed by handicapping and incapacitating the convoy."

Rui immediately understood the motive of the mission.

('He wants to compromise the supply line of the Commonwealth Duchy of Vinfrana coming from the Kingdom of Violis and frame it on another nation or group.') Rui realized.

There was no other reason to have Rui wear a separate Martial garb and spare the crew of the supply shipment convoy.

"Of course, you don't have to particularly spare their lives in a manner that makes it obvious. All you need to do is allow them to escape when you spar with the Martial Squire assigned to protect the convoy," The man explained. "Once you defeat the Martial Squire and kill him, do not pursue them. Instead, let them escape back to the Kingdom of Violis."

"So, if I'm understanding this right, you want me to, first, engage with the Martial Squire alone and kill them, while ensuring that the crew of the convoy managed to escape while making sure they see the Martial garb that you will provide, correct?"

"Correct."

"And this is all part of the commission contract, right?"

"Right."
