My lips pursed into a slight smile as I saw a shadow shift behind him.
"You're more inexperienced than I thought,"
SHING
The boy just barely dodged a dagger that had made a surface-level cut on his chest, and if it wasn't for the fact that killing was banned, his throat would have been slit by the girl with long black hair who moved through the shadows like a true assassin.
"You're quite slow for a descendent of Jormungandr," The girl with long black hair taunted.
"And who are you?" The boy responded, his twin sickles dripping with green liquid beginning to crack all of a sudden. "Ah… you must be from that family… right?"
"And what if I am?"
"Then that ans you would be the enemy," The boy smiled before dashing forward and crossing both of his weapons into an X-like shape.
VWOOM
"Hey, don't forget about ," The elven girl with long golden hair smiled, scratching the boy's face despite her missing her swing entirely.
It was a strange way of attacking that was completely opposite from what I had seen before… so I could only assu sothing almost miracle-like must've happened to her.
But not only did the elf join in, but the boy she initially attacked, creating an instant dogfight between all four children.
They didn't seem to be holding back in the slightest, so I knew the sister and brother watching above us were getting ready to step in at only a mont's notice.
CLANG CLANG CLANG CLANG CLANG
It was a glorious battle filled with an impressive display of bloodlust and skill that almost seed to intertwine with each passing second.
They seed to be getting better as they faced each other, opponents who must've been as strong as them.
They were all decently equal when it ca to everything around the assassination, but what really set them apart were their unique displays of systemic skills and spatial awareness.
I'd say they were at least at an interdiate level of assassination skill level and would be higher if they were, of course, older, which ans having longer reach, a more developed brain, and obviously, I'd assu they would class up so more.
"Huff… huff… huff… huff… huff… huff… huff… huff… huff… huff… huff… huff… huff… huff…"
But, it was apparent from the beginning there was going to be one single survivor out of the dogfight of four due to his advantage in chemical warfare.
Clap… Clap… Clap… Clap…
I gave him a slow clap of approval as the remaining children were unconscious on the ground, their veins now bursting with green liquid, and several of their organs ruptured from the boy's intense and lightning-fast kicks.
The shadow man from above ca down to pick up the children instantly and feed them the antidote to the boy's strong poison.
His dark green hair was slicked back with blood, and his reptilian bright green eyes glowed in the dark, creating a presence so nacing you'd think he was a naga incarnated as a human.
"I surrender," I smiled, raising my hands into the air and dropping the daggers of water I had conjured into my palms. "You win. Congratulations."
They shattered into millions of water molecules upon hitting the ground, only showing how they were for show and not really to kill or, in fact, hurt sobody.
"H-Huh? No, he can't just do that… Fight ! You can't just give up instantly! Where's your pride!? Do you not have any?!"
"You're stronger than ; what can I say?" I smiled, and as the boy threw his weapons to the ground, the sickles of bone just bouncing around, he gritted his teeth and cursed profusely under his breath.
"Is he allowed to do that?" The boy turned to the shadow woman who had just appeared beside him in the blink of an eye.
"Why does it matter? You won," She announced, her voice echoing through the cylindrical chamber we had just fought in.
The boy was in disbelief, though he wasn't very angry at … maybe just puzzled and flabbergasted as to why I would give up this position.
As we exited the chambers and walked back up the stairs, I got a dirty look from the woman that continued to persist until we were ordered to return back to our dorms.
I gladly accepted, but she swiftly followed behind whilst in the shadows.
"I had money on you that you would be victorious. In fact, I bet that you would have an overwhelming victory…." She snarled, flinging herself out of the shadows and roaming around , her finger pointed straight at my face.
"Then your brother clearly saw what my intentions are… at least for the future, that is… he's too green to be useful to ,"
"Oh? And what would you be using him for?"
"I need him to take the fall for sothing in the future… but don't worry, your cute little reptilian pet won't die," I smiled before turning the nob to my dorm room. "Now, please let sleep in peace,"
"So, you're planning on betraying us? I would assu no because you just told , but I can't read that fucking face of yours… it pisses off so goddamn much that I have to watch the actions of a fucking child,"
My eyes opened ever so slightly as I raised my hands into the air.
"Don't hurt . I'm just a child," I chuckled, and as the woman held back the urge to rip my entire face off, I entered my room and sat on the edge of my bed, looking at Petra, who slept peacefully parallel to where I rested.
"*sigh*... We'll discuss this more in the morning. Now, stop trying to piss off and go to sleep. I'm sure you'll be seeing sobody familiar early in the morning,"
"No need to tell … but I'll be visiting him before he can visit . I want to make sure what I heard earlier is true…. The descendent of Jormungandr, huh? I'll see about that,"
