Chapter 485 George Goes To Find Raven

George had no interest in grooming others right now. He came to this world for one purpose only: to find his disciple. No one-nothing-mattered more than that.

But if, after he found his disciple, Cassian proved willing to follow him back, George might consider taking him along as well.

At that moment, Cassian had already made it outside the villa. He didn't take the

front gate.

Before he'd been poisoned and injured, these guards wouldn't have been an obstacle at all. Even charging in head-on, he could've taken them out in a breath.

But now, though George's medicine had restored some of his strength, he was far from his peak.

Not far away, George observed silently. He intended to treat this ambush as a final test-to see whether Robert was truly worth saving.

Then, in a blink, Cassian vanished from view and reappeared behind the guards, silent as shadow.

There weren't many people around the villa, and the men on watch had clearly grown complacent. Cassian moved so quickly that to them, it felt like no more than a passing breeze.

"Did it just get colder?" one of the guards asked, glancing around casually.

"Yeah, it was windy a second ago... weird," another muttered, yawning as he moved toward the villa steps to sit and rest.

But the moment he turned and heard a sharp snap.

He didn't even have time to scream before Cassian twisted his neck and dropped him where he stood.

"What the hell?" one of the other guards shouted. Guns were drawn. Bullets flew. But amid the storm of gunfire, Cassian moved like mist-untouched. Within seconds, he disarmed the nearest man and seized his weapon.
