e of his colleagues has already been killed.

The two Assassins exchanged glances at each other in the dark.
That alone conveyed the meaning.
One will chase right behind and the other will be moving from above and blocking the way.

‘Catch them before they escape.’

With that thought in mind, the assassin, who was secretly chasing Rudger and Violetta, found a black shadow in front of him and stopped walking.

He found the target but something is strange.

‘The woman is alone? What about the man?’

Has he left her? Certainly, looking at the battle just before, the woman looked like a burden.

“Come on, wait! How could you leave me?”

As if she had actually been abandoned, she stood up and screamed but the assassin wasn’t sure if it was a trap or not.

‘Maybe he never really left.
Is it a trap? Are they trying to confuse me?’

The escape to the roof a while ago was also a trap.
Perhaps a man named James Moriarty is hiding somewhere around him.

The assassin slowly walked towards Violetta with a poisoned dagger in his hand.
His gaze turned to Violetta, who was left alone, but his ears were set high to pick up the sounds around him.

At that moment, he heard a small sound in his ear from the right.

‘It’s here!’

The assassin determined that this was where Rudger was hiding and immediately threw his dagger but nothing was hit.

‘What?! There was definitely a sound.’

He is highly trained to handle such situations and could never have been wrong.

“It’s unfortunate.”

A voice came from behind him as if it suddenly popped out of the air.
Rudger stood behind him.

How and when? Rather than having such a question, the assassin unconsciously moved his body based on the training he had received.

He grabbed the dagger and swung it backwards……But before the assassin could move, Rudger’s sword stick pierced him from behind.

“How…….”

The sound came from the right side, but he appeared from behind?

“It’s that kind of magic.”

Rudger said as he pulled out the sword stick from his body.
The remnants of the diffusion still remain but Rudger reversed the diffusion direction.

He combined sound magic and coordinate designation magic to make the direction the sound came from difficult to distinguish.

“You got him?”

“Yes.”

Violetta was embarrassed when Rudger asked her to play the role of bait but she did as she was told and he killed one more assassin.

‘Well, it’s magic that lets out sounds from different directions.
It must be embarrassing for those who suffer.’

But when you fight for your life, there is no need to be considerate to your opponent.

‘Now there is only one left.’

At times, a cool breeze blows through the alleyway.

‘The diffuse scent is slowly washed away.’

In the end, it has to remain in the atmosphere to be effective, and since we’re in an alleyway, it is maintained for a long time but since the wind blows, it will eventually disappear.

Now time was on Rudger’s side and at that moment, a black shadow fell over his head.

“Above!”

Violetta saw it and reacted, but it was already too late.

The assassin threw something at Rudger.

“Hmm.”

Rudger raised his sword stick as if he knew this, but what the Assassin’s threw was not a poisoned dagger, it was a hook on a chain.

The hook caught the middle blade of the sword stick, pulled it with strong force and the sword stick slipped out of Rudger’s hand.
The assassin, who came down to the ground, threw the sword caught in the hook on the floor and rushed towards Rudger.

A sharp dagger was pulled from his waist.

“It’s dangerous!”

Violetta exclaimed and the assassin was sure of victory.
There was no time to use magic and he stole the target weapon.
Two of his compatriots died, but he accomplished his mission nonetheless, the assassin thought so.

Even on the brink of death Rudger did not lose his composure.

‘What? Why the hell are you looking like that…….’

He couldn’t understand the situation but his thoughts didn’t go any further.
It was because in that moment when he ran towards him, Rudger’s two hands moved faster and faster.

“Huh?”

The assassin, who had precisely cut the nape of Rudger’s neck, collapsed on the ground, his body relaxed.

“You were distracted at the crucial moment.”

Rudger lightly wiped his blood from the crescent-shaped karambit dagger held in his hand.
The assassin in front of him revealed a gap in his conviction that got him killed.
If you are going to kill your opponent, you have to be vigilant and do your best at every moment.

“That momentary complacency killed you.”

Rudger picked up the sword stick that had fallen on the floor.
After checking to see if the blade had been damaged, he decided that it was still intact and put it in his bag immediately.

Rudger gripped his staff and stretched his collar lightly.

“……Did you best the Southern Assassin in close combat?”

“Why? What else do you want to know?”

“Even if I’m curious, I won’t ask.”

It was hard to count how many times Violetta was surprised today and at this time a cry from the Red Society was heard from afar.

“It’s here! The sound came from this way!”

“Come on catch them! If they run away, it’s all over!”

Violetta stared at Rudger.

“What are you going to do now?”

“How are you feeling?”

Rudger shrugged his shoulders.

“All the diffuse scent is gone.”

“Oh yeah?”

“Yes.
So leave it to me.”

In the black cotton yarn, Violetta smiled alluringly.
The fact that she was able to use her magic, which had been banned for a while, means that she has an opportunity to do her own thing.

She lifted the parasol, which was almost melted.
It was a weapon for her self-defense, but at the same time it was also a staff that helped her concentrate her magical powers.

“I’ll take care of the rest.”

The sound of footsteps getting closer and a horde of the Red Society members appeared.

“It’s here! They are……!”

And what greeted them was a blade of wind that sharply cut through the darkness.
