Chapter 119: Jude's Secret part 2
After disguising himself, Kayn quickly stored the body of the assassin inside a separate Storage Ring before proceeding to take over the latter's role in the squad.
Launching a surprise and crucial attack.
That's obviously the role of the assassin he killed.
There are only two assassins in the squad, so it isn't that difficult to predict what their purpose is.
Kayn quickly changed his location close to the long-distance combatants.
Some individuals from the long-distance combatants noticed his action and paid some attention to him, curious about what he is doing. But eventually, they turned their attention back to Jude's party after thinking that perhaps he was just looking for a good spot to launch a surprise attack.
Kayn is very experience with the role of an assassin and what they normally do, so he didn't feel slightly nervous nor afraid that his disguise would get exposed with his action.
As soon as he positioned himself at a perfect spot that gives him the best view of the long-distance combatants, he decided to wait patiently on what their squad's next course of action would be against Jude's party in hopes of seeing an opportunity that he can take advantage of.
There's currently no chance to pull off an effective attack on their squad, and he also deemed it impossible to create one himself as he lacks enough information about who he is up against.
An assassin doesn't always just go around picking up kills just because the opponent left their back unguarded. There are also times when they have to make sure first that they can guarantee their safety after executing their target.
Such time is right now.
Even though he can kill some of the long-distance combatants nearby him, or maybe even all of them, he isn't certain that he can really get away with it afterward. After all, he didn't come here with the intention of sacrificing his life.
As he waited, Kayn also decided to eavesdrop on the conversation currently taking place in front of him.
"What are we waiting for?" One of the Guardians asked their leader.
"Our employer doesn't mainly want us to kill all of them. He also requested to make sure that we reveal Jude's secret so that he can confirm its validity,"
"What is Jude's secret?"
"That's the problem; even he doesn't know, let alone me or our squad,"
"Then how can we make Jude reveal it?"
"That's also the question I have been asking myself all this time,"
Kayn instantly understood why their enemy is still not making a move yet.
"Certainly we have a clue, right?"
"We do," The leader nodded his head. "Our employer said that as long as we push Jude to the brink of death, he would no doubt make use of his secret weapon. And that secret weapon happens to be somewhere nearby here, and is also what our employer wanted us to find out,"
"It seems like Jude has always been an extraordinary individual even before he became one of the loyal subordinates of Selena," Kayn thought to himself. He honestly expected Jude to be very strong and capable. But he never truly expected that the latter would have something even greater hidden in his sleeve that warrants the attention of big shots to target him.
"This is making me rethink that maybe the person who posted the mission doesn't intend to find the Springwater Source Bosai all this time," Kayn silently muttered.
"Regardless, we at least found what we were looking for," Natas interjected.
"We are still stuck here and can't do anything yet to get what we want," Kayn sighs.
"Just wait patiently," Natas patted Kayn's shoulder in comfort. "We'll eventually get there soon,"
Their major concern, which was Kayn's level, has already been solved. So, as long as they can get out of here alive, they'll simply return to complete their main interest.
"Let's proceed with plan C,"
"Plan C?" Kayn wonders. It seems like they've created multiple plans to make sure that they'll be able to achieve their goal.
He glimpses at the second assassin over the distance, and after seeing that the latter didn't make a move, he also followed suit and remained hidden in his spot.
Contrary to them, the long-distance combatants started gathering mana around their surroundings.
As for the close-range combatants, they slowly move closer and closer to Jude's party.
Seeing that, Kayn prepared himself to attack the long-distance combatants once an opportunity reveals itself to him.
"Attack!"
Whoosh!
A series of magic spells started raining down on the location of Jude's party.
In response to their enemy's attack, Jude swiftly set up a barrier to block the magic spells.
Boom!
Boom!
Bang!
The barrier successfully blocked all magic spells. As a result, none of their party members received any injuries. Albeit the barrier disappeared right after enduring the continuous assault.
"Charge!"
In the next moment, the close-distance combatants run forward.
Bang!
Bang!
Boom!
Charles, the other Knight, and the Guardian of their party started defending against the assault of their enemy.
Regrettably, because of the disadvantage in numbers, Charles, the Knight, and the Guardian of their party soon started losing their ground, causing them to retreat a few steps backward.
Luckily enough, with the help of the wooden wall, only a limited number of men could face them at the same time. Nevertheless, they still can't afford to be careless because they are still losing in numbers.
"Ahhh!"
The other Knight screamed out as he sustained an injury on his shoulder after a momentary carelessness.
"Get behind me!" Charles immediately took his spot so that he can heal himself.
The Guardian too also covered Charles' back so that he won't get injured too.
"Just hold on!" Jude exclaimed before looking in the direction of the long-distance combatants, silently hoping that Kayn is now making a move to change their situation.
Although he isn't preoccupied with an opponent right now, he still can't do anything to help because their enemy is right in front of his party members. If he attacks, he'd be putting his comrades in harm's way as well.
Moreover, attacking the long-distance combatants is also going to be useless because they can obviously make a barrier as well to block his magic spells. He would just be wasting his mana and stamina if he does that.
Noticing something strange, Kayn asked, "Why is Jude not casting any support magic spells on Charles and the others?"
"He problem hasn't learned any," Natas could only assume. If Jude had learned a support magic spell, he would have long used it already seeing the situation of Charles and the others right now.
"How inconvenient," Kayn said as a remark. Most Mages would learn one or two support magic spells exactly because of situations like this. "I guess I don't have any other choice now,"
Coincidentally, when Kayn decided to make a move, the other assassin also started sneaking closer to Jude's party.
Analyzing the distance of the assassin and the possible attacks he'd pull off, he decided to ignore the assassin temporarily. He believes that Jude's party can take care of a single assassin.
Kayn disappeared from his location.
In the next moment, he arrived behind a Mage.
Splat!
Kayn didn't hesitate to brandish his sword.
"Argh!"
With the death of one of the Mages, the long-distance combatants immediately realized that an enemy has sneaked behind them.
However, even if they know about that, it's already too late to do anything against someone attacking them at close range.
Whoosh!
Kayn immediately releases a sword wave at point-blank range so that they can't escape his attack and would also get killed.
Bodies started dropping on the ground.
Without wasting any time, Kayn quickly turns around to face the other direction.
He activated Sword Dance.
"Watch out!"
This time, Kayn didn't opt for a double sword wave combo. Instead, he simply slashed his sword at the Priest closest to him.
The warning came too late as the Priest wasn't able to conjure his barrier completely.
"Ahhh!"
The Priest's body dropped to the ground, lifeless.
"He probably ran out of Active Skills to use. It's time for our counterattack!"
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
A series of assault magic spell shot toward Kayn.
Kayn quickly activated Hot and Cold as he turned his body to the side where a fireball is approaching.
Bang!
Kayn directly received the fireball, causing him to retreat.
However, that was all because the Hot and Cold skill negate fifty percent of fire element attacks. In addition to that, he is wearing armor, thus further decreasing the damage he would be receiving. In the end, the fireball only left a dent mark on his chest plate.
"Impossible!"
Kayn didn't bother to respond to the shocked expression of the remaining long-distance combatants.
In the following moment, Kayn started brandishing his sword to claim the lives of the remaining alive long-distance combatants.
"Shit!" The leader of the squad could only helplessly watch as his comrades get killed one by one. His unit is considerably far to help, and they are also being kept preoccupied with the close combat combatants of Jude's party after their assassin began his assault. Hence, they got delayed.
As soon as some of the men freed themselves from Jude's party, they immediately made their way to the assassin that massacred their comrades.
"Idiots!" Kayn muttered as he activated Temperature Reset, instantly resetting all of the Active Skills he had just used.
Following that, he activated Sword Dance to multiply his attack damage.
"Have a taste of my ultimate," Kayn brandished his sword in front.
Whoosh!
