A peerless killer possessing a cat girl assassin from another world

"Lord Edmund, what's on your mind?"

"You know, that's the thing."

"Do you mean the mission issued by the goddess? Please rest assured that I will definitely complete the mission next time."

The shadow's words made Edmund feel that it was the individual that the goddess had placed expectations on, and it had never been him.

The magic that Shadow has seen so far can be understood at a glance. In comparison, he is more like a toddler when it comes to magic.

For a moment, Edmond's frustration became even more intense.

As Edmund's shadow, you can naturally feel his emotional changes, but you may feel it but not necessarily empathize with it. The shadow just said mechanically: "Master Edmund, are you frustrated by your weakness? You, You will never become stronger, you have been like this in your past life, and you will be like this in this life.”

Shadow's words were extremely sharp, piercing into Edmund's heart like thorns.

"That's enough! I said, since God allows me to live another life, I will do my best to live a good life. I will risk my life to show you what it means to be a king or a saint!"

The moment he was angry with himself, Edmond had already lost.

After that, Edmund didn't talk to Shadow for several days. Was it an illusion? Why does it feel like Shadow's character is getting further and further away from him?

Edmund was puzzled as he stuffed the magic stones for practice one after another into his backpack.

"Brother, brother, what are you doing?"

Suddenly, a pair of big, watery eyes came from beside him, casting curious glances at the magic stone in Edmond's hand, and a small hand was about to touch it.

"Nana, don't move, it's very dangerous." Edmund quickly stopped his sister.

No matter what, the inside of the magic stone is full of pure magic. Just breaking it will cause the magic in it to burst out. It is still too dangerous for children to move.

"Is it dangerous? It looks beautiful."

In the eyes of children, beautiful things are not dangerous.

"This is the magic stone." Helpless Edmund stood up and carried his sister out of the workshop.

"Magic... stone? What's the use of it?"

My sister, who is not yet ten years old, naturally knows nothing about magic stones.

"Magic stones are the materials used by magicians to perform magic. Magic, magic."

Although Edmund also wanted to explain to his sister the principles of various magics, telling this to a ten-year-old child was in vain.

"Wow! Magic! Can you conjure endless cakes?"

My sister's impression of magicians is that they can conjure something out of thin air.

"You little greedy boy, you just know how to eat!" Edmond didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but if there was a magic that could make cakes out of thin air, he would definitely learn it without hesitation to make his sister happy.

"Nana, don't disturb your brother anymore. He needs to pack his things and rest early. He will leave for the capital early tomorrow morning." The mother's voice came up from downstairs.

"Brother, are you leaving tomorrow?"

"Yes, my brother is going to the royal capital to become a magician."

"Wow! My brother is going to the royal capital tomorrow to become a great magician!"

The younger sister was so excited that she jumped out of her brother's arms and danced. She didn't know whether she was happy because her brother became a magician, or because her brother becoming a magician meant endless cakes...

"Nana, be good at home and listen to your parents, okay? My brother will bring you a gift next time he comes back."

At this point, Edmond remembered something and then said: "Oh, by the way, Nana, whatever gift you want, that's the royal capital. You can have whatever you want."

"Ask me what gift I want..." My sister pretended to think seriously.

"Well......"

"I want a cake! The cake in the royal capital must be delicious!"

"I knew it must be a cake. Don't worry Nana. Next time my brother comes back, he will definitely serve you the best cake in the capital."

"promised?"

"Yes, we have an appointment."

......

Early the next morning, Edmond set out for Melbourne. Halfway through, he saw an army coming towards him, marching in the opposite direction to him.

"Hey, boy over there!" An officer stopped Edmond.

"Sir, what's the matter?"

"Let me ask you, how far is it from Sopa Barony?"

"Oh, it's about three days' journey from here." Edmund replied without thinking too much.

"Where did you come from?"

"Exactly."

"Going to the royal capital?"

"Ah."

"Enrollment? Or employment?"

"Onboarding."

"Humph, you're really lucky. Let's go and continue on your way."

After asking for directions, the officer immediately returned to the team and reported to the leading officer.

"Report to the general, we are still three days away from our destination."

The leading general nodded, and then ordered something to an old man in a cloak next to him.

After taking a look at Edmond's back, he led the team and moved on.

Edmund naturally didn't hear what these people said. He thought it was just the army taking the road to pass through the Sopa Territory, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

That night, Edmond was attacked in his sleep. He thought he was an ordinary robber, but he didn't expect it to be a well-trained mercenary.

Edmond was covered in wounds and staggered away in the dark forest.

Who wants his own life?

Somehow, he suddenly remembered the army during the day.

A terrible conjecture appeared in his mind.

Sopa is in danger, his family is in danger!

At this moment, something was greater than his desire to live.

"Shadow, please, help me!"

The shadow has not made any move, and the shadow has not spoken for several days.

There was only endless silence in response to him.

"Nana is in danger. Isn't she your sister?" Edmund was already hysterical.

Speaking of which, Shadow has never taken action. Why is this?

There was no time to think so much, because the mercenary's arrow had already pierced the back of Edmond's heart, and Edmond instantly lost consciousness.

The moment Edmond fell, the shadow moved. Edmond's shadow split into pieces and turned into countless spikes, instantly piercing the mercenaries chasing behind him.

"Why...what?" Edmund asked Shadow as he was about to die.

"Unfortunately, Lord Edmund, this is the [Shadow of Vengeance]."

"Without hatred and anger as nourishment, I wouldn't be able to take action."

"In the same way, with these nutrients, I can still do this..."

Suddenly, Edmond felt something filling his heart, and then all the wounds on his body healed.

"Huh...huh..." Edmond gasped.

This feeling of coming back to life is very uncomfortable.

However, there is no time to think about this.

"Home! Come home quickly!" Edmond shouted.

Then he got up and started running towards home.
