Chapter 15: The Battle Without Light

Hand knives!

It is not in the conventional sense that five fingers are put together and the lower edge of the little finger is used to hit the person, but a knife for the real hand.

From the lower edge of the little finger to the wrist, there is a row of wavy blades, the blades are blackened and matte, and if it were not for the slight sound of the blade cutting through the air, the hand knife would be truly silent.

It was this sound that gave Shinji a chance to react.

Sensing the danger, Shinji hurriedly made a short body, and then slashed at the person who sneaked up from the bottom up - no, not necessarily human, although he could roughly see that it was a human form at a glance, but Shinji did not sense the characteristics that a human should have, such as body temperature, heartbeat, and breath.

"Is it a puppet?"

Shinji made a judgment while the blade was blocked. Although the sharpness of the sharpness of the spear and the sword, it is impossible for someone to grasp it so easily. And the owner of the house, Miss Aozaki Orange, passed the "crown" evaluation of the clock tower as a "doll".

The demon offering that took the initiative to cut off the bow knife, and the blade woven by magic disappeared, taking advantage of this opportunity, Shinji quickly retreated while looking at the puppet in front of him.

She has long hair and is about 165cm tall, and although she can't see her face clearly when hiding in the shadows, she should be a woman judging by her silhouette, and it is not a common signal of a green child, because the eyes of the doll are a rare amber color.

The vision blurred, and the silhouette of the humanoid figure was disappearing from Shinji's eyes in an eerie way.

"Stealth, it seems that Orange used my fighting style in mind when creating the puppet...... Very good, let's compare who is more professional in stealth. ”

Shen Eryi pulled his cloak, and his figure began to disappear.

Generally speaking, no one will play in-person stealth, as stealth abilities or items will be greatly reduced as soon as they are detected, but not without exceptions, such as in special environments. The enchantment created by the orange creates a special environment, and the shadows will affect the vision to the greatest extent, making it easier to hide.

Peace returned to the front of the detached hut, which was kept at a distance from the surrounding buildings, but this calm was only superficial, and the dark war intensified under the imperceptible shadow of the human eye.

The light was distorted, and even though the Silver Moon was not completely dark, there was still no picture coming out, and even the sound was difficult to escape from the area, and Erquit, who was standing outside the barrier, could only faintly hear the sound of the blades converging, and it became more and more frequent.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

……

One minute.

Two minutes.

Three minutes.

……

It's not a long time, but it feels like it's been a long time.

Hand knives, bow knives.

Fists, palms.

I can't see clearly, I can't really hear it.

One side is a lifeless puppet, and the other is an Hidden One with an artifact.

It's a dark showdown.

It's a clash of silence.

This is a real battle of assassins.

Such a battle is not destined to last...... When one of the parties is forced to lift its hiding, it is time to decide the winner, just as darkness can never last.

With a strange thud, a figure was knocked out of the air, stumbling and staggering.

The gray cloak was tattered, and the spirit children continued to escape outward, and the blades rewoven by the bow and knife became fragmented. At some point, his left arm turned golden, and a fleshy wound took up most of his forearm, and blood gushed out from the golden-dyed blood.

Along with the blood, sweat fell from his forehead. There is no doubt that this encounter in the dark was a defeat for Shinji.

With Shinji's strength and physique today, it is impossible for him to sweat in just a few minutes, no matter how strenuous the exercise is. But the mental pressure is another matter, the feeling is blinded, and the pressure from the state of knowing that there is an enemy but not grasping it is too great.

Let ordinary people dance on the blade blindfolded, probably like that.

It was this experience that made Shinji realize for the first time what a real assassination is.

is different from herself, a faker who relies on treasures and plays a positive role in the name of an assassin, she is a veritable assassin, and the real killing is invisible.

"Tick!"

"Tick!"

"Tick!"

Blood mixed with sweat drips to the ground, and the heart of the second infusion is taken orally.

However, in addition to admiration, he was a little skeptical that this puppet was made of oranges.

Instead of questioning Orange's ability, he felt the "mystery of the age" from the puppet, which is a history accumulated over a long period of time, and it only belongs to the puppet itself, not an external addition. It was precisely because of this attribute that he broke through the protection of the relics and injured Shinji's left arm.

Of course, it is not excluded that Orange used a lot of ancient materials to create this doll,

"What the hell are you?"

Rightfully did not answer, because it would expose herself. In the midst of a certain staggering of lightning and fire, Shinji saw a spark of intellect in those amber eyes.

She is no ordinary puppet.

"Answer me! If you don't answer, I'll have to go to your master and ask him face to face. ”

Regardless of the bleeding wound, Shinji rushed towards the door of the hut.

Just a second before he touched the doorknob, a sharp blade suddenly appeared and plunged into his heart.

However, at the critical moment when he could die at any time, Shinji not only did not panic, but showed a confident smile, only to see his right hand flick, and the "sharpshooter bow knife" came out of his hand, knocking the sharp blade that hit the back of the heart crookedly.

At the same time, Shinji staggered in the opposite direction of the blade, and patted the abdomen of the assassin puppet with his pitch-black palm.

The doll slipped and nearly fell to the ground, with obvious panic flashing in his eyes.

Ignoring the enemy who was close in front of him and could be killed with only one step, the assassin puppet hurriedly retreated.

Unfortunately, it was too late, and the puppet only took two steps back, and found that his feet were getting heavier and heavier. When I looked down, I saw that the part below the knee had turned grayish-white - a sign of petrification.

"Finally got you, Miss Assassin, can you tell me the answer now?"

Removing the "Athena's Shield" from his hand, Shinji smiled gently at the puppet.

"It's okay if you don't want to say it, the owner of this room will tell me the answer. ”

"No, I'll tell you the answer. ”

The delicate voice of both the delicate girl and the majesty of the superior sounded, but not from the mouth of the assassin's puppet, but from a farther place.

"I also have some questions for you, so be sure to answer them truthfully, if you don't want your companions to be harmed. ”
