“How did you know that Sir Lovis and Lady Evane are being attacked?”
The assassin questioned and hearing that question, the other assassins’ expressions changed as well.
They all alerted themselves and started looking around with cautious looks on their faces.
With their years of experience, they could feel it.
Something was about to happen.
Seeing their reaction, Amaya smiled.
“You know…” She called out, “I must say, you have a lot to learn as an assassin. You should never talk to your target like you did now, what if your target was planning something and was just stalling for time?” She questioned.
This time, however, the assassin wasn’t playing around, “Answer my question, how did you know that Sir Lovis and Lady Evane are being attacked?” He repeated his question as he pointed his dagger at Amaya.
Initially, Amaya wasn’t a threat, a woman who couldn’t even move, what could possibly go wrong when someone like her was his target? She couldn’t even defend herself. Therefore, he was relaxed and started talking.
A mistake, but it wasn’t fatal. Even assassins want to indulge a little.
However, the assassin finally realized that something was wrong. He wanted to correct himself and quickly shot his dagger at Amaya, trying to pierce her heart in one move.
However, things didn’t go as he planned.
The dagger he thought would directly pierce Amaya’s heart without any problems was caught,
It was caught by Amaya herself.
“!!!”
The assassin’s eyes widened in surprise.
“You can move!?”
He questioned in shock.
Seeing his face, Amaya’s smile widened, and then, she stood up.
“I must say, Duke Vestalis sending a mere Expert Stage Cultivator and 4 Grand Master Stage Cultivators to kill me, a King Stage Cultivator is quite disrespectful.
Shouldn’t he at least send around 10 King Stage Cultivators?”
’10 King Stage Cultivators my ass! Where do you think he would find those from!? Even he himself is only an Expert Stage Cultivator!’
The assassin thought inwardly.
However, this wasn’t something he should worry about right now.
Amaya was moving.
That Black Mist was still surrounding her, meaning the Curse was still active. This was unheard of.
Suddenly, another idea popped into her mind and he commanded.
“Don’t be scared, remember, she can’t use her cultivation! Just kill her, she is just trying to put up a strong front, don’t fall for it, and just kill her!”
The other assassins, who were just as confused and afraid as he was came out of their reverie and nodded.
Their leader’s words made sense.
The 4 of them looked at each other and nodded, however, just as they were about to attack Amaya, they noticed that she was looking at them with a smile on her face and then,
The Mist covering her body moved and rushed towards them.
The assassins tried to dodge it, however, as if it had eyes, the Mist followed behind them, and soon, it surrounded their body.
“Ugghhhh!!”
The assassins groaned in pain.
“W-What is this!?”
One of them shouted in panic.
“It is eating my Mana!”
Another assassin shouted in horror.
“Push it out of your body! Don’t block it! Push it out! Don’t let it stay inside for long!”
An assassin spoke.
Hearing that, Amaya smiled and clapped.
“You figured it out, congratulations. You are much smarter than I thought you were. Here, as you prize,
I will increase the difficulty.”
*Whoosh*
A second later, more Devouring Mist was released from her body and rushed toward the four assassins.
The assassins, who were barely resisting the mist were now completely surrounded now.
“Captain! Save us!”
“Uggh! Keep this thing away from me!”
“Captain!!”
The assassins shouted in fear.
The leader of the assassin, the Expert Stage Cultivator, the one who was talking with Amaya looked at him with a shocked look on his face.
“H-H-How are you doing this?”
“Doing what?” Amaya questioned.
“Y-Your curse! How are you controlling it!?”
The assassin raised his voice.
Amaya smiled, “You think I am a fool like you? Why would I reveal any information to you?”
“Yo-”
The assassin wanted to say something, however, before he could, another assassin interrupted.
“You can talk to her later! Save us first!”
The assassin finally came out of his reverie and rushed towards Amaya, however, suddenly, Amaya, who was standing right in front of him disappeared.
The Assassin looked around in caution and soon, he heard a voice.
“It was nice talking to you, Cervic.”
Before he could react, his throat was slit open, and then he heard Amaya’s voice again.
“Also, don’t bite more than you can chew, I would never be your woman. I already belong to someone else. Know your place, Cervic Malfoy.”
“H-H-Hkow do you knhow mky name?” Cervic, the assassin questioned, however, since his throat was being clogged by his own blood, his words weren’t clear.
Amaya just smiled at him, he soon felt all his energy leaving his body.
He turned around and noticed that all his subordinates were lying on the floor, motionless.
He didn’t know if they were dead or alive, however, he knew that they would die soon. The Black Mist was still surrounding their bodies.
In his last moment, his eyes fell on Amaya again, and seeing how she was just sitting on the bed, looking at him with a curious look on her face while that scary Black Mist was dancing in her hands, he could only think of one thing,
‘Fucking monster…’
Cervic finally took his last breath and closed his eyes.
Amaya smiled, then, the Mist on the top of her hand moved and covered Cervic’s body.
She then waited for another 10 minutes, the Devouring Mist not only devoured the assassins’ mana and inner organs, it even devoured their bones, muscles, skin, and everything else.
Other than their Spatial Ring, their entire body was devoured by the Devouring Mist.
Amaya stood up, picked the Space Rings, stored them in her pockets, and then smiled.
‘I should start my act now.
Are you guys ready?’
‘Whatever.’
Thyra replied.
Amaya’s smile widened, a dagger then appeared in her hand, and then,
*Pierce*
She pierced it into her thigh.
