Salute To The General

This time, Kaiden was the one who initiated the attack.

"Killer Cardinal, huh? Well, I'll be the one to kill you today!" he yelled while pouncing at Laura.

Due to his lightning speed and the low visibility in the rain, all everyone could see was a blurry figure charging through the rain.

The bishops and warriors standing next to Laura gasped in shock as they rushed forward to intercept Kaiden.

However, Laura stopped them and said coldly, "This battle is between me and Kaiden, so you guys can stand down. He's too powerful for you guys to be of any help anyway. You'll only increase the casualty count if you try to fight him." Being proud bishops and warriors of the Curia, they were unhappy when Laura told them to stand down.

Even so, she outranked them as a cardinal, so they had no choice but to obey her orders.

As for Sevan, he never liked the members of the Curia, to begin with.

He believed that the Curia was the main reason Queenie got targeted, so he didn't want to interfere with Laura and Kaiden's fight at all.

While no one was paying him any attention, Sevan quietly made his way back to the BMW and stood next to Kylie and Queenie, protecting them.

Laura had just finished ordering her subordinates to stand down when Kaiden swiped at her chest.

Kaiden's claws were so sharp that they made a whistling noise while cutting through the air at high speed.
