Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil-Novel

Roody Jr was about to say something to Ken. However, the latter cut him off before he could open his mouth to speak.

"Don't worry. I won't hold back this time. I'll be aiming to kill.

I won't be playing a hero either. After you guys leave, I'll engage with them for a while before making my escape. It'll be a bit difficult for me to make a run for it, but not impossible.

Now go. We don't have much time."

Ken declared before suddenly stopping in his tracks. There was a confident smile on his face when he did that. He turned around and started accelerating in the opposite direction of the team, not giving Roody Jr or any other member of his team much time to think.

"Fuck! This self-righteous asshole will be the death of me."

Roody Jr cursed Ken under his breath. He feared that his brother and sister would kill him if anything happened to Ken. However, he couldn't just follow him blindly because he had his duties as captain of the entire team.

Roody Jr knew that even if the kingdom of Edinburgh came to know about the kingdom of Layos' infiltration into the event, it wouldn't cancel it. In fact, it would encourage the rankers of Edinburgh to kill the infiltrators using their own hands as a show of the kingdom's might. It would make this event a success story for its populace at the cost of participants' lives.

There was no way to get help. And staying at the scene might mean all of them getting killed. Furthermore, Roody Jr knew about Ken's capabilities. He was capable of handling enemies for a while, if not outright defeating them. And if he kept his compassion aside, the Fist Saint was perfectly capable of manhandling his pursuers before escaping their ambush.

"Ken… you motherfucking prick, you better not die before I find you again. Otherwise, I'll kill you."ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . Fɪre

Roody Jr yelled while looking ahead of himself. He activated the Team Jump perk before any of his teammates could stop him.

"Captain… there's an update. A huge one. Ken's had separated. Our target is approaching us. The rest of his teammates used Team Jump. What... what should we do?"

A ranger elf who was leading the team of elves from the kingdom of Layos asked his captain. He was looking ahead but his eyes had turned completely white, indicating that he was using a ranger-specific spell to keep tabs on his targets.

The captain of this team was a very striking and bodacious young elf. She had white hair and light blue eyes. Her pointy ears and her rosy lips added to her eye-catching beauty. Her name was Meeshah and she was the 12th in the line of Layos' royal succession.

Meeshah was seen wearing golden armor that accentuated her prominent bust. She had paired her defensive wear with heavy shoulder and arm bracers. Holding slim and long curved swords in both her hands, she looked as intimidating as she was gorgeous.

Meeshah smiled wickedly when she heard the report from her ranger.

"Hehe. That fool thinks he can handle us all by himself. He is denser than the reports we had read about him."

Despite the arrogance in her voice, Meeshah had studied her enemy well. She knew that Ken was indeed powerful. He did a remarkable job refining the Fist Art to perfection. She had experienced it firsthand at the borders of two kingdoms.

However, all of the rankers who entered Sansara World as participants were restricted. Even the most talented rankers would find it difficult to express their individuality to their fullest under such restrictions.

By equalizing all the rankers at the start, the event had taken the edge off of rankers with strong individualities. They were simply not as threatening as they should have been against average rankers. At least not in the early days of the event.

The forces of Layos had infiltrated the event under the disguise of other rankers from various academies using the same kind of artifact Shandil had on him. These rankers of Layos were also not free from the restrictions the Sansara World had placed on them.

Taking all these factors into consideration, Meeshah decided to finish her deal with Ken right then and there. Killing an earl's son from the enemy kingdom was going to be the biggest achievement she would have under her name. That achievement alone was enough to make her one of the top contenders for the royal succession.

Still, Meeshah chose to play it safe by ordering a few of the rankers on her team to approach Ken from a different direction. Meeshah wanted to create a diversion just in case Ken became too hot for her entire team in a frontal clash.

The ranger moved to the back of his team when he sensed that Ken was at an unavoidable distance from them. All the rankers ran in formation as Meeshah came forward to lead their frontal assault.

'He… There's something different about him.'

Meeshah thought to herself as she looked at the approaching Ken from a distance. She knew then and there that this version of Ken was going to be even more dangerous than what he had shown at the border.

"Alright hotshot. Let's see what you got."

Meeshah licked her lips before tightening her grip on her sword. She gestured for all the other team members to distance themselves from her. She was determined to handle Ken all by herself.

"Hahahahaha! Meeshah, is it? Our fight was interrupted the last time.

Nobody is stopping either of us here. Come."

Ken laughed maniacally as he radiated his dominating aura. He bumped his fists against each other and created vibrations in the air. The ground beneath his feet started breaking as if he had manipulated his weight with each step.

Meeshah and Ken clashed. A weaponless fighter facing up against a double-wielding swordswoman was supposed to give an undisputed advantage to the latter. However, something completely contrary to common sense occurred.

The Fist Saint proved his dominance against a swordswoman barely two seconds into the conflict.
