This...... This scene is a little familiar!

What does it mean when the letter says that the beads are hot......

With a bewildered expression, Duke put the beads, which he had already been unable to hold, into his pocket, and took out the letter again to examine it.

“...... The kitten will have a fever warning if it comes within 500 meters of you......"

“...... When it's so hot that you can't catch it, the kitten is no more than fifty meters away from you, and you're done!"

It's so hot that you can't turn it...... Fifty meters......

it!

Duke, who should have just understood the situation, suddenly reflexively fell to the ground, and a flash of silver light suddenly flashed three inches on his hand, and finally cut down the guard in front of him to the ground, lying on the ground without knowing whether he was alive or dead.

"There are assassins!"

Without checking his men's condition, Duke rolled forward in embarrassment, shouting hoarsely.

Because the location of this assassination was outside, the terrain was relatively empty, and Duke had just read the letter wholeheartedly and did not pay any attention to the surrounding situation.

In order to seize this fleeting opportunity, the "cat demon" did not bother to arrange the silence magic, and directly picked up the dagger to kill Duke with one blow.

But in the end, she couldn't understand why Duke knew about her attack at the last minute, and was able to dodge the fatal attack at the most dangerous time, so that her confident blow failed, and in the end she could only use the remaining strength on the creep.

The cries for help were heard far away in the empty camp, and the Keno family, who was closest to Duke, opened the door with a bang, and the only adult man in the family, Keno, ran out with a hoe, and his family was watching from afar, not daring or powerless to rescue Duke.

"Go back! Go back! Call someone!"

Seeing that it was the Keno family who came out first, Duke couldn't help but urge him to hurry back and call someone, an ordinary person like Keno was no match for an assassin with extraordinary strength at all, and he would only lose his life in vain if he came.

At this moment, distracted, the "cat demon" seized the opportunity to turn into a black cloud of smoke and fly behind Duke, and in a single breath, he stabbed twice in succession.

The milky white shield rose in response, but the "cat demon" had already made enough preparations after suffering a loss last time, and specially infiltrated the dagger with armor-piercing materials and potions, which made the shield shatter in an instant.

The second shield was quickly shattered by her second stabbing strike, and it was as easy as shredding a blank sheet of paper when she was prepared.

It was only after the two shields shattered in quick succession that Duke reacted, and after running and moving awkwardly, he moved far away from the direction where the Keno family was, hiding in a corner where debris was piled up.

Holding the hoe, Kino saw the assassin's lightning attack and strange posture, and realized that he was no opponent at all, so he gritted his teeth and dropped the hoe, spread his feet and ran towards the soldier camp stationed in the center of the camp.

He knew that in order to protect the lord's safety in the past few days, the powerful female knight had been stationed in the camp, and as long as he found her as soon as possible, his lord would be saved!

The "cat demon" didn't care about Keno who fled to rescue the soldiers, and in her opinion, if she hadn't been able to kill Duke before Keno returned, then the operation had already been declared a complete failure, and she should have run away a long time ago.

Calming her breath, her gaze was once again locked on Duke hidden in the clutter pile, the beast's instincts providing her with the best angle and way to hunt, and soon there were several attack options in her mind.

There is only one time left......

Silently counting the number of life-saving measures on Duke's body in her mind, she was ready for another attack.

However, now she doesn't dare to use all her strength in every attack, after all, the scorching white light last time left a deep impression on her, so now no matter how she strikes, she will consider leaving some strength and ready to receive that kind of attack at any time.

Duke, who was in the pile of debris, thought about how to get out, and now he had the ray beads given by Agnes in his hand, but now it seemed that the other party was full of vigilance, and it was not a good time to launch an attack at all.

Now Duke could only count two attack opportunities at full play, and each missed attack would increase his chance of death exponentially, so he felt that he couldn't be too careful now.

Seeing that assassin once again turned into an illusory black shadow, Duke's muscles tensed all over his body, but no matter how much he exerted his mental power, he couldn't catch the other party's trace.

"Bold Assassin, don't hurt my lord!"

What Duke didn't expect was that Lenia would rush over so quickly this time, but before a touch of fiery red sword light could be reached, it had already slashed towards the trees behind Duke.

Soon, a black figure hurriedly emerged from the shadows of the trees, and looked at the powerful knight who suddenly appeared in front of him with some surprise.

It turned out that Lenia had something to report to Duke today, and it happened that she met Keno who was running for her life in a hurry, and as soon as she knew that her lord was in danger, she rushed over as fast as she could, regardless of the consumption of her fighting spirit.

The "cat demon", who already had a plan in his heart, saw that Duke's help had already felt, so he sighed lightly with some regret, and turned into a phantom again and prepared to run away.

Although she clearly knew that her strength was not much different from the knight in front of her, after all, she specialized in the arts, and it was almost impossible for an assassin to win against a knight in a head-on fight after being discovered, so she was ready to escape.

But where was Lenia willing to let her go so easily, she had been guilty for not arriving in the first place when Duke was attacked last time, and now seeing the assassin again can be described as an enemy, and no matter what, she will shed this assassin down.

As soon as she turned into a phantom, she raised her sword and jumped lightly, slashing out a sharp sword light again in mid-air, interrupting the process of the "cat demon" voiding.

She had never been surprised to see such a situation, but years of Assassin training had allowed her to control her emotions in battle.

After being interrupted and running, she completely gave up her original plan to escape with her special talent, and was ready to use her extraordinary body to slip away.

Lenia was indeed inferior to her in this regard, and after continuous pursuit of about a few hundred meters, she had completely lost the trace of the "cat demon" in her field of vision, and couldn't help but hammer the ground with some indignation, letting out a roar full of anger.
