Chapter 145: Blink (1)


    Bloed looked at the sky with an expression of awe. Since a while ago, the cloudy sky had been filled with blinding shes of silver light.


    As the only person in this world that knew about Regina''s ESP ability, Bloed knew that these shes of silver light were due to Regina attacks.


    [Energy Materialization]. As an S-Grade ESP ability with the capacity to materialize energy in different shapes, it''s a truly overpowered ability that grants her great power.


    Despite [Energy Materialization] being only an S-Grade ESP ability, its attack-oriented nature meant that it wasparable to some SS-Grade ESP abilities. Moreover, Regina was a Valkyrie, and her psychic power was at the SS-Grade, making her an SS-Grade ESPer. With such strength, she can be considered as one of the top existences in the world.


    And that is before she activates her [Valkyrie''s Equipment]. Once Regina activates it, she bes literally into a walking weapon of mass destruction.


    Not for nothing were Valkyries considered the ultimate weapon of mankind against the Devourers.


    The fight between Regina and Sebastian was incredibly shy. Every time a sh of silver lightning urred, the clouds were blown away, and the strong currents of air caused by Regina''s attack crashed against Diadel City.


    Even when the battlefield was located several kilometers up in the air, the fact that the aftershocks of the battle could be felt on the city showed how powerful that battle was.


    Unfortunately, although Bloed wanted to observe the battle badly, he needed to take care of other things first.


    For example, the two hooded A-Ranks in front of Liu Ying and him.


    " Man, I never thought we were going after a prince. It means that we need to be careful about not hurting him too much, right?" One of the hooded people said. The other thought briefly before sighing. "It doesn''t matter, just make sure that his limbs are intact and everything will be alright."


    " Are you sure?"


    "No, but you can see the fight up there. In the unlikely case that Mr. Sebastian loses and he has to escape, we should be as far from here as possible before that happens. Thus, it''s better if we take care of this fast."


    Bloed narrowed his eyes hearing their conversation.


    "You two are very confident, huh."


    "Sorry about that, your highness." Said one of the hooded people sarcastically. "But you are just a C-Rank. Without your nanny demigod protecting you, how are you going to stop us?"


    "Is it so?" Bloed smiled. He then formed a gun in each of his hands.


    Understanding his intentions, Liu Ying took a battle-ready stance. Without hesitation, her aspect materialized behind her, revealing a giant dark knight.


    "Woa That looks dangerous." One of the two hooded men said. "But not enough to stop us!"


    When his words finished, the hooded man disappeared, only to reappear the next second in front of Bloed and Liu Ying!


    Bloed''s eyes opened wide. ''This is''


    Without hesitation, he jumped back. One secondter, a dagger cut the ce where he was just a moment ago!


    But Bloed did not stay quiet. As soon as he evaded, he aimed his Energy Gun: ster Mode towards the A-Rank''s face.


    But the A-Rank did not even bother to avoid the attack! Instead, he disappeared suddenly before appearing again, this time behind Liu Ying.


    "Careful!" Bloed shouted, but even before shouting, he had alreadymanded Leto. A barrier of metallic sand formed between the A-rank and Liu Ying, stopping the attack briefly!


    Liu Ying was surprised. Fortunately, her battle experience kicked in, allowing her to make the best decision in that situation. Jumping away!


    But at that moment, the second A-Rank moved!


    Different from the first, the second one did not move at godly speed. Instead, he just punched the ground.


    And


    *BOOOMMM!!!*


    The earth and stones rose like waves, surging towards Bloed and Liu Ying overwhelmingly!


    Bloed''s expression changed. Without hesitation, he jumped up and avoided the wave. But when he was still in the air, the first hooded man appeared.


    "You are mine!" With a dagger on his hand, he stabbed towards Bloed''s abdomen.


    But when he thought Bloed could not avoid his attack, Bloed shot his ster gun, using the recoil of the shot to move away from the path of the dagger.


    At the same time, his other gun aimed to the hooded man again, only for him disappear just like before.


    Liu Ying, on the other hand, was using Leto''s help to barely keep herself alive from the strange attacks of the other A-Rank. However, the attacks of the two A-Ranks were slowly cornering the pair.


    Not even ten seconds after the battle started, Bloed and Liu Ying were already at the brim of losing!


    ''Damn! A-Rank practitioners are too strong! And there are two of them!''


    Bloed bit his lips and put his entire focus on the fight. Against this kind of enemy, even the slightest negligence could be fatal.


    In fact, even if Bloed and Liu Ying fought perfectly, winning was an impossibility.


    The first hooded person continued moving bizarrely around the field of battle, appearing suddenly in the ce Bloed less expected it.


    The fact that Bloed and Liu Ying had managed to avoid him for so long was already almost a miracle.


    Actually, that hooded person was just as surprised as Bloed. The fact that two C-Ranks like Bloed and Liu Ying avoided his attacks for so long was definitively no normal.


    ''I guess he is a prince after all, huh.'' The hooded person clicked his tongue in admiration.


    With that thought in mind, the hooded person narrowed his eyes and upped his speed. This time he appeared in front of Bloed!


    But when he appeared, his eyes opened wide.


    In front of him, the muzzle of Bloed''s ster gun was aiming at his chest.


    ''Fuck''


    Without hesitation, the hooded person jumped aside, avoiding the attack. Then, he tried to teleport again, but he realized that something was grabbing his ankles!


    At some point, the ground he was stepping on had been covered by metallic sand, and that metallic sand had turned into two chains that grabbed his two legs!


    But as an experienced A-Rank, the hooded person did not panic. Instead, he blew up a bit of his mana, using it to disperse the metallic sand hindering him.


    In total, he needed less than one-tenth of a second to escape his bindings.


    But that tenth of a second was enough for an experienced assassin.


    Without a warning, a pair of daggers appeared from the shadows surrounding the hooded person, stabbing towards his neck and back.


    The hooded person''s face changed. Under his hood, his eyes opened wide.


    The daggers pierced his skin, cutting his neck and back mercilessly.


    But before the daggers could kill him, the hooded person disappeared.


    When he reappeared, he was ten meters away, bleeding intensely from his neck and back.


    With an expression of disbelief and rage, he looked at the shadows responsible for hurting him.


    The shadows then turned tangible, revealing a handsome catkin man with an elegant smile.


    "Yo! I came to help my friend with a favor."


    Javelin was here.
