Shadow Slave

Chapter 1041

1041 The Fall of Falcon Scott (59)

Something broke the dark surface of the shadows and flew into the cold air, moving fast enough to look like a black blur. Before anyone could react, Kim was falling down… and so was Luster, who had pushed her aside at the last moment. There was blood in the air, a startled expression on his face… and something was very wrong with the way he was falling…

The black blur did not stop. A sharp blade instantly flashed toward Dorn, who had a startled expression on his face. The giant man only had enough time to slightly turn his torso — the blade missed his heart, slicing through armor and leaving a deep wound on his chest.

The blade continued forward without pause, a split second away from piercing Belle's head. Instead, it simply passed through it… the swordsman could not possibly dodge, but he just barely managed to activate his Aspect Ability and phase through the strike.

Leaving Samara utterly open.

Everything happened too fast. Before Kim even hit the ground, the enemy's blade was already mere centimeters away from slashing across her throat.

…However, a jade sword suddenly appeared in its way, blocking the lightning-fast attack.

'What the…'

Sunny, who had thrown himself in the path of the enemy, was tossed back by the ferocious force of the impact. The attacker, whoever it was, was so strong that his hands grew slightly numb.

He collapsed on the scorched road and rolled, instantly jumping back to his feet.

Kim landed on the ground. Luster did, too… both of his legs were cleanly severed at the knee, and blood was pouring out of terrible wounds.

Sunny's eyes widened.

But he had no time to think about it. The members of the cohort were too slow to defend themselves, and the ambush was not yet over. The creature — a dark silhouette moving with dire speed — had been thrown back, as well. Sunny only had enough time to notice a humanoid shape clad in black armor, and instantly lunged forward.

He had regained his balance a split second faster than the attacker, so the bastard had no way to avoid being pierced by the Sin of Solace.
