We all sit around a table in a hidden area under an orphanage I passed a few times. I've come to know these three men's names. The first being Creatureman. He has a legacy class that specializes in stealth and thievery. He is one of the few people of Gaia I have ever met with such a unique class. The next is Ghostzero. He has a legacy class too. He is a defensive monster. Even with my powerful skills, I doubt I'd be able to defeat him in the time my skills are active. Finally, there is Krialder, the only person of Gaia I've ever talked to personally with a legendary class. In this little room, nobody has a class ranked below legacy. All of us are one of a kind. I look at the palace map and appreciate how hard they have been working on this plan of theirs.

Something so important to the royal family here in Bellvia would be closely guarded. It must have come at a heavy price. Maps of high nobility properties are closely guarded secrets. I look at the old dusty map and admire the accuracy it has. It shows secret passageways and the sort. "The first thing we need to discuss is how you plan to distract them. It needs to be long enough for us to hit our targets and get The Dice of Wayland from the treasure vault. What do you plan on doing?" Krialder asks me about the first step of the master plan we have constructed. They will be waiting in positions near some old secret entrances. Once the distraction starts, that's when they go in. I have been thinking about this for a while now, and I got just the plan.

I plan to leave the city and run a few miles away. Then return towards the front entrance flying and land with my angel wings out. After that, the situation will unfold itself. The nobility and royalty will be in an uproar after that, creating the hole they need. "The plan for the distraction is to leave the city through the secret entrance, get a few miles away, then fly back with my wings out and land at the front gate to the city. After that, everything will erupt into chaos. That'll be your chance." While handling their targets and my item from the treasury, I'll be busy demanding answers about Ulma Runa and the dryads. Getting the information I need for those quests. Now the only piece we haven't really fit into anything is Sally.

I look at her, and she looks a little dejected. She wants to be included in the grand plan we have come up with. I take her with me and have her help me do my part. It'll be fun to see the expressions of nobles when they hear I travel with an elf. Everyone nods their heads in agreement, and that's when Krialder begins to discuss their part of the mission. "Once the distraction has started, the three of us will each take separate entrances. All of them lead to different parts of the palace. We'll have a small window to take out our targets before they get distracted by the chaos too. Once we deal with them, we hit the treasure room here." He points to a big area on a separate map. A palace as big as this has multiple levels maps.

It's a very big treasure room. I bet there are some great things in there. Too bad I'll only be getting The Dice of Wayland. "The treasure room is going to have plenty of magical traps and detection enchantments. Creatureman, we'll leave this part up to you while we stand guard. We hope you can find the item in two minutes, but you have 5 just in case. It'll likely be well hidden. You have all the best skills for this specific part of the job. So I have no doubt you'll succeed." Now that part of the heist is taken care of. We'll have to discuss the escape plan because security will get very tight once I'm fully known around the city. They won't want anything happening to me. It's a double edge sword using my status, but a necessary risk nonetheless.

Both Creatureman and Ghostzero have been scouting the locations from what I hear, and now Ghostzero takes over. "There will be heavy guard increases in the poorer districts here, here, and here." He points to circles three areas around the separate map of the city. "They will be hammering down on crime and known places that many criminals go. We have some safe houses like this one that are undiscovered, but they are very close to the places that will have increased security. So we'll use the sewer system. There is a treatment station right next to our escape passage from the palace. We'll enter it, and wait till nightfall in the rich district to come out." He circles another part of the map near the palace. It's a big area, must be where the merchants and nobles of low rank stay.

Everything sounds perfect. We'll launch this operation as soon as dawn breaks, which means we need to leave now to set up my part of the plan. "Sally will be using her ice dummies so we can tell you when we arrive at the gate. She has a useful skill that allows her to talk through them. Once we let you know we are starting, they'll melt, and you'll be on your own." As badly as Sally wanted a direct role in this operation, this is vital to our success, and she should be proud. I look at her and give her a confident smile. Her mood has been improving. We don't need her doing any of the heavy lifting. "You'll be with me, Sally, you'll fly in with me, and we'll deal with the distraction and nobility part. I know it's going to be hard on you, but once nightfall hits, we'll meet at our location outside the city." Everything has been decided, and now it's time to execute.

I nod my head to the three gentlemen, and Sally makes three ice dummies to say with each one, we turn and use their personal passage into the underground city. We'll meet at the location outside the city. Sally and I will get there first. I'm not worried about getting betrayed either. These guys aren't the type to backstab their crewmembers. It also helps I'm The Son of Arch-Angel Michael. We walk down the passage in silence. We don't have to rush since we have several hours before sunrise and the plans start. I will equip my title, The Son of Arch-Angel Michael, to seal the deal once we get to the gate. I open my player interface to make sure that everything is in order regarding that.

It has the word hidden in parentheses, I click on it, and it gives me an option if I want to activate it or not. It gives me a warning about what will happen if I do.

[Extreme Caution: The Son of Arch-Angel Michael is a one-of-a-kind title that has very special effects on people and creatures if fully activated in a population center.]

[The following things will happen: Everyone will see a floating text above your head without having to inspect you saying 'The Son of Arch-Angel Michael.' Many people will have several reactions. Some will bow and weep before you, and others will try and reach out and touch you. Trying to experience divinity. The news will sweep fast across the city and then the continent.]

[Extreme Caution: Other effects will happen, not all things can be listed.]

I didn't know this about my title. I'm going to keep it hidden for now. "Do you think everything will go according to plan... I have a bad feeling that something might happen..." Sally asks me a question that is totally normal for something like this. Anyone will have doubts and jitters, so I can understand why she is asking this.

I place my hand on top of her hood as we walk in the quiet tunnel. "Everything is going to be fine. We have a great crew, a perfect plan, and every reason to do this. If something does go wrong, I'll handle it. Have faith in them. There are some of the most powerful people on Gaia." She has some relaxation wash over her, but I can tell she is worried. She will come to terms. I'm going to be by her side the entire way. So no need to be worried. Now, it's time to get this heist on the road.
