I decided to try some contracts, and for this one, there was a merchant who suspected there is a traitor in their midst. And to help catch him, I had to deliver some marked coins to a trade delegate, accepting the pouch of heavy currency to begin the investigation.
This elite guard was looking around for me as I just took down some enemies there a moment ago. And I tried to assassinate him from behind, but he didn't give up this easily.
After getting afar, I started attacking him with throwing knives till I was out of knives. And then I just attacked him and took him down real fast, which is a first time that happened this easily with these guards.
Well, then I called Enkidu to check around for the contractor, and the contractor was in the Hidden Ones outfit, so it was not so hard to find him, who was waiting for me on a roof.
After getting to him, I had to speak to him, but the pop-up for the speaking action was not showing. And that man was staring at the other side, like I was not there.
And then the pop-up appeared. After our conversation, he said I had to race him to the spot where he hid the coins, as he believed he is fast enough to outrun my reputation.
I started racing that Hidden One close to Damascus gate where he hid the coin. And it looked like he was actually faster than me, as he was sprinting ahead with impressive agility through the crowded marketplace streets.
But his mistake was that he was using the ground route for the whole race, while I was using aerial routes, and at last I used this slide rope that made me win the race, and I got the coins from there.
And then I had to deliver the coins to the delegate inside the round city, but it looked like the walls were still restriction zone for me, and even the gate was guarded where I couldn't just walk by freely.
I could hire some people and go with them, but why I would spend coins when I could just infiltrate the area with my parkour skills?
After getting inside the round city, I was going somewhere to deliver the marked coins, but on my way, I found this viewpoint. And I decided to synchronize with it to unlock fast travel.
So, I found a way to get to the top of the viewpoint easily and then I started climbing up the high tower.
After reaching there, I spooked some pigeons like always and then I synchronized with the viewpoint and unlocked the fast travel before taking a leap of faith.
At last, I met the delegate whom I had to deliver the coins to and he appreciated the service but he said I was too late, asking me to be a little quicker next time.
Until next time, happy gaming.
