440 Oh, they are here. "I was talking about the enemies, you dumb fuck." Nux snorted. Lovis narrowed his eyes and retorted, "Who do you think you are talking to? If you forgot, then let me remind you, you are just a servant, a servant I can get rid of any time I want. Know your place, insect." Nux glanced at Lovis and just smiled, "Ahh, I am so scared. Third Prince Lovis is using his trump card, his status, to threaten me again. What could I possibly do when he sends 100 King Stage Cultivators to hunt me down." He then rushed towards Evane and hugged her from behind, "Lady Evaneeee, I am so scaaaarred. Save meeee~" Evane, of course, didn't mind being hugged by Nux, however, Lovis couldn't help but widen his eyes in shock, "You bastard! Get away from he-" However, before he could say anything, the doors of the room were burst opened and 6 assassins wearing black colored clothes entered." "Oh, they are here." Nux spoke with a smile on his face. The assassins raised their eyebrows when they saw Nux hugging Evane from behind, however, in the end, they didn't care about anything. Unlike the assassins who were after Amaya, these assassins didn't waste their time and directly attacked. 'What are you doing? Isn't dealing with all of them a simple task for you? Why aren't you fighting?' Seeing that Nux had no intentions of moving, Evane questioned. 'If you get into a dangerous situation, I would help.' Nux replied. 'Isn't this situation dangerous already!?' Evane questioned again. 'Heh, it's not nearly dangerous… for you.' Evane narrowed her eyes, 'For me?' 'I am not planning to save that bastard, I'll only save you.' Nux revealed. 'You can't do this!' Evane eyes widened in surprise and she dismissed. 'Well, he is your brother, isn't he? Save him then. I'll only act like a normal Grand Master Stage Cultivator.' Nux shrugged. Evane couldn't believe what she was hearing. She turned and looked at Nux with a shocked look on her face, however, Nux just pointed behind her with a smile on his face. Evane quickly turned around and blocked the attack of the Expert Stage Assassin. Collecting all her strength, she pushed the assassin away, and then, she ordered, "Leo, you fight that Expert Stage Assassin, Lovis, go after the Grand Master Stage Assassin and try to get rid of him as soon as possible! And Nux… you go and fight that Grand Master Stage Assassin." "What about the remaining assassins!?" Lovis questioned. A determined look appeared on Evane's face and she spoke, "I'll take care of them." Saying those words, a red-orange colored sword appeared in her hand and she dashed toward the Expert Stage Assassin. *Clank* The assassin's dagger and Evane's sword clashed, from the clash, it looked like the two of them had the same level of strength, however, suddenly, *Whoosh* Scorching Flames covered Evane's sword, the assassin could feel that heat burning his hand, and his grip on his weapon weakened. The assassin didn't panic, he decided to bear the heat, however, he soon realized that his 4 Star Dagger was being affected by Evane's sword. There was already a 1 cm long cut on the blade! If this continued, his dagger would break in the middle of the battle! He had to do something! Using this moment of confusion, Evane slashed her sword, due to the sudden force, the assassin stepped back, and Evane quickly rushed towards the assassin and slashed at his neck. The assassin blocked her attack with all his might, soon, however, he felt a scorching pain in his lower body. He lowered his head and noticed a grievous cut on both his thighs. The skin around this cut was burned and the more it was exposed to air, the more it hurt. 'When!?' He couldn't understand. Evane never aimed at his thighs, just how did she… He soon realized. Her sword. He didn't know what tier it was, however, it was definitely not her 4 Stage Sword that was written on the information. 'Just where did she get that ridiculous sword from!?' He wondered inwardly. Evane, however, didn't care about what he was thinking, seeing this chance, she just kicked his chest. Due to the immense force behind the kick, the assassin's body flew away. Evane then turned around, another, red-black sword appeared in her hand and she rushed towards the two Grand Master Stage Assassins who were about to attack Leo and Lovis. 'She has another!?' The Expert Stage Assassin who fell down couldn't believe his eyes. He wondered where these weapons came from, however, he realized that he didn't have the time. There is no way the other assassins would be able to fight Evane, he had to get up and fight again. However, just as he tried to get up, he lost his balance and fell down. His wound was more serious than he thought. In the end, the only thing he could do was drink a Healing Potion and tend to his wound. "Ugghh!!"𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂 He groaned in pain and frustration and gulped an entire Potion in one go. On the other side, Evane fought against 2 Grand Master Assassins alone, she knew she didn't have much time, the Expert Stage Assassin would get back soon. At best, she only had one minute, therefore, she decided to inject more Mana into her Swords, and the Flames around her two swords increased. With just one slash, she cut an Assassin's body into two, while the other had to sacrifice his entire arm from his shoulder in order to stay alive. "Haah… haa… haahh…" Evane took deep breaths. She had used almost all her Mana she was left with in this attack, however, she knew it hasn't ended yet. She rushed towards the assassin who was still shivering in pain and attacked. The assassin blocked the attack with his dagger. Evane didn't stop and continued to attack ruthlessly. The assassin, who had already lost his major arm couldn't stand more, and soon, Evane beheaded him. Evane's hands trembled. This was the first time she had killed someone. Seeing the blood flowing around in her room, she wanted to throw up. Seeing her just standing there, the Expert Stage assassin, who was still tending to her wound had another idea.
