Just when Ignatius got ready to speak, he pointed to a direction while narrowing his eyes

and shouted in surprise, “Look! What is that?”

The others looked in the direction he was pointing. They saw a dark object in the sky

heading straight down, and it crashed in the middle of their troops.

The explosion was deafening, and everything quaked as dust rose. There was a gigantic

wave of energy spreading outward from the point of explosion like tsunami waves.

The energy wave left a trail of destruction and painful moans wherever it passed. This

attack killed and wounded at least a few hundred soldiers.

“The fuck! What the hell was that?” Draven squinted his eyes. He couldn’t see what

attacked them due to the thick clouds of dust.

“Could it be a meteorite?” Atticus sounded a little confused.

“A shooting star? How could there be such a coincidence?” Mortimer refused to believe it.

“I can see it clearly now! It’s a person!” Ignatius had good vision and pointed at where the

object fell. Then, he shouted, “He’s charging toward us!”

As soon as he said that, a dark shadow emerged from the clouds of dust and was running

toward the Four Sovereigns.

The dark shadow held a black sword and was moving very fast. He was unstoppable and

was undeterred by the obstacles on the way.

The fully armored soldiers were nothing to him as he defeated them easily. There were

suddenly a lot of casualties.

“An assassin! Quick! Stop him!” Ignatius came to his senses quickly and gathered the

royal guards as he charged toward the shadow.

“Hmm! He’s only one, and we have thousands of soldiers to protect us! He might be able

to fly, but he’ll never get to us with the number of soldiers around us!” Draven said

haughtily with a cold look.

Even though the most effective way to defeat an enemy was to kill the leader, it was

actually the most difficult thing to achieve.

It could only be achieved through covert means. It was a suicidal act for this lone assassin

to attack the leader of the enemy so openly.

They all had a team of royal guards to protect them. Even if there was a real threat, they

could escape unscathed under the protection of the royal guards. They didn’t have to fear

for their lives.

“Draven! Things are not looking up. That assassin is too powerful. The common soldiers

couldn’t take him on, “Ignatius said with a frown.

He had very good eyes. Hence, he was able to see that the assassin was killing everyone

blocking his way.

“Why are you flustered? It’s just an assassin. I doubt he could make any difference.”

Draven’s attitude remained haughty.

He was one of the four esteemed sovereigns. He mustn’t show fear before an assassin.

“Draven! No, the assassin is getting too close. He’s just a few feet away from us. We must

retreat to safety!” Ignatius shouted urgently.

“Well…” Draven frowned slightly and looked displeased. He had thought that the assassin

would never get this far.

He had no idea that the assassin could actually penetrate this deep. The assassin had

immense potential!

The problem was that he had just claimed the assassin wouldn’t get far. If he retreated

now, wouldn’t it be a blow to his ego? It’d be very embarrassing for him if this got out.

“Fuck it! Whatever, retreat!” Ignatius decided to give the order to back down when Draven

couldn’t make up his mind.

He immediately got ready to leave with the royal guards. They were so close to success

tonight! It’d be the joke of the nation if they were killed by an assassin!
