Resurrecting the Genius Within

Chapter 487 Fight in the Castle

Walking through long and quiet corridors, the two proceeded cautiously. Moon Shadow observed Isabelle, who seemed to know this place like the back of her hand, sparking his curiosity once more,

If they could make it out alive, he was determined to find out the answers.

After walking for over ten minutes, their path was once again blocked by several assassins, whose strength was clearly superior to the dozen or so encountered in the entrance hall carlier.

Moon Shadow wanted to help, but found himself powerless.

Luckily, for Isabelle, killing these guys was just a matter of time.

Isabelle swiftly took out those attackers, leaving no one standing.

Then she kept moving forward. She wasn’t just wandering around this huge castle like a lost puppy. It seemed like she knew exactly where Joker was, with a clear target and a straight path.

As they went, they ran into wave after wave of assassins.

Clearly, Joker didn’t plan on killing her directly but wanted to drain her energy with these constant attacks.

Otherwise, he could’ve just used guns. There were plenty of ways to kill her when Isabelle first arrived on the island or even when she entered this area.

A regular body couldn’t handle gunfire.

Two figures silently appeared from both sides.

This time, blocking their path were two other assassins with the codename “Shadow.” Besides Moon Shadow and Flowing Shadow, they were the last ones standing, at least in their opinion.

“When the boss first said you’d betrayed the Dark Shadow, I didn’t believe it,” Sword Shadow said, holding a longsword that glinted with cold light as he glanced at Isabelle.

Sword Shadow continued, “All because of her? Can’t believe assassins can catch feelings.”
