Chapter 448: The Black Blade Assassin!
In a time close to the present, the governments we once knew had vanished, and the five continents no longer saw any human presence.
In a deserted and broken city, a man wearing a black robe and a hood covering his face walked here.
A black-haired girl with long ears followed beside him.
The man walked fast, quickly leaving the girl behind, who had to run to catch up every time.
Every time she caught up to the man, she harshly stepped on his shadow, as if mimicking something.
The man paid no attention to her, continuing to walk without saying a word.
The girl puffed out her cheeks, looking frustrated as she followed, "Hey, wait for me, why do you always walk so fast…"
"Don’t know what’s the rush."
The man completely ignored the girl’s murmurs, not slowing down but instead speeding up.
In the blink of an eye, the man in front disappeared!
When the girl saw this, she immediately got worried, "Wait…wait!"
As she spoke, a demon with a red body suddenly descended from the sky, holding a trident and thrusting it towards the girl!
"Little fairy girl, why did you come here alone?!"
Seeing this, the girl quickly started to run, but the demon was too fast, and the trident reached the girl in an instant!
"Lord Atlantis is hosting a banquet for the young princess’s coming-of-age ceremony. I was just thinking of what gift to give!"
With a wicked grin, the demon skillfully dodged the girl’s critical strike and swiftly aimed for her legs!
Seeing this, the girl closed her eyes instantly, then shouted, "Daddy!"
"Who are you calling for?!" the demon sneered and suddenly paused in its tracks!
*sound effect*
An invisible weapon pierced the demon’s chest instantly, the demon’s eyes narrowed, "Why can’t I move…"
Poof!
The invisible weapon was pulled out, and the demon instantly fell to his knees. He struggled to lift his head and saw a man in a black robe with a mask stepping on his shadow.
The life force within the demon began to rapidly fade away, as if his lifeline had been cut!
"I am a seventh-rank great demon, how could it be possible… so easily…"
A pitch-black long knife appeared in the man’s hand instantly. He took out a piece of cloth to wipe away the bloodstains on the knife.
After witnessing this scene, the demon suddenly understood something, "The Law of Death, the invisible blade, you are the Black Blade!"
Clang!
As soon as the demon finished speaking, the man stomped on his head, crushing it.
The man jumped down from the demon’s body and continued walking as if nothing had happened.
But the girl directly hugged the man from behind, saying, "Dad… I’m sorry, please don’t leave me…"
The man suddenly stopped his steps, hearing the girl’s voice with a hint of crying, tears rolling down her face.
But the man stayed silent, no matter what the girl asked, he remained quiet.
After the girl’s emotions calmed down, the man continued walking, this time at a slower pace.
Because the girl was holding onto his clothes tightly, afraid that the man in front of her would disappear in the blink of an eye.
They passed through the abandoned city area together.
The man stopped in front of a ruined building, he walked into the rubble and picked up a radio.
The girl peeked out, asking, "What is this?"
The man said nothing, silently pulled out the antenna, and tried to turn the knobs on the radio.
"Crackle… crackle…"
"In the year 2026, Voyager One officially launched… crackle…"
"Voyager Two will launch in September… twenty… globally announce… crackle… located in the capital…"
"Crackle… emergency notice… emergency notice… crackle, do not come… no…"
"Crackle, the demon… is waiting for us!"
"Crackle crackle crackle…"
The global broadcast from over twenty years ago was the final broadcast.
The man silently put it down and continued walking forward.
The girl followed closely behind, curious about everything. "What is that? Why can it talk? Is it a talking stone?"
"Why are the buildings here like this? Did you used to live here?"
The man remained silent, but the girl, as if used to it, simply talked to herself.
"Roar!!!"
Suddenly, a roar echoed through the city, and a giant beast resembling a white wolf popped its head out of a building!
The girl quickly pointed at the white wolf, but the man reacted faster, swiftly throwing out the Black Blade!
Boom!!!
The Black Blade shot out like a missile, piercing through the building, shattering steel and concrete, and stabbing the white wolf in one go!
The white wolf perished instantly, and the abandoned building collapsed along with it.
The girl blinked her eyes and thought, "Amazing…"
The man waved his hand, and the Black Blade spun and flew back into his hand.
They continued onward, and the girl had no idea where they were going. They had always been wandering like this ever since she could remember.
The man never explained to her, nor did he tell her where they were heading.
The girl asked, but all she got was silence.
As the sky darkened, they lit a bonfire inside an abandoned building.
Most likely, they would spend the night here.
The girl skillfully took out a sleeping bag from her backpack, while the man sat by the fire with his eyes closed.
The man didn’t need to sleep, at least that’s what the girl thought.
Used to the routine of being with him, the girl obediently closed her eyes and prepared to sleep.
But she always couldn’t help but sneak a glance at the man.
The man could sense everything within a hundred miles without using his eyes, as if he had a bird’s-eye view.
Although the man never admitted to having this ability…
Because the girl guessed it based on her years of experience knowing him.
"Dad…"
As the girl just spoke, the man instantly disappeared from where he was standing, picking up the girl and retreating backward in the next second!
Crash!
With a loud noise, a pitch-black arm suddenly lifted the cement from the ground and crawled out!
"Hahaha, I’ve heard a lot about the silent assassin, I’ve been wanting to meet the famous Black Blade Assassin for a long time!"
A dark-skinned humanoid demon popped up from the ground, "Don’t be nervous, I’m here to discuss cooperation with you."
"I want to buy a life under your command, Demon Prince Maze, do you dare to kill?"
Pfft!!!
With that, a Black Blade pierced through the demon directly!
The demon widened its eyes in an instant, "Why you…?"
Phew!!
Black flames instantly ignited on the demon’s body, quickly turning it into ashes.
The Black Blade spun and flew back into the man’s hand, the girl blinked repeatedly, "He, he seems to have come to talk business with you?"
The man didn’t say a word, he just lifted the girl onto his shoulders and left.
