The first rule of an assassin was to hide in the darkness, hold your breath, and wait for the opportunity to assassinate.
The second rule of assassins was to use the target's thoughts to infer the target's thoughts and actions.
The third rule of killers was to kill the target before they noticed him.
The fourth rule for killers was to remember that you were also a target when dealing with the target and be prepared to be killed at any time.
When Scarlet Eye was still an assassin in the Empire, Roland Alpha, who was the combat instructor of the Empire's assassination department, taught every student who trained under him in this way. Scarlet Eye was also one of Roland's many students back then.
Moreover, she was the one who performed the best among all the students. She had not forgotten these four assassin rules until now. It was very difficult to stand out from the Imperial Assassination Department.
Scarlet Eye stepped on the corpses of her peers and advanced step by step. In the end, most of her peers died, but she survived. Roland had given her the Emperor relic, Murasame Murasame, as proof of her graduation.
To Scarlet Eye, Roland Alpha, the Empire's strongest assassin, was not only a terrifying monster that could not be seen in the light, but also a master she respected and admired. But now, she had no choice but to fight someone she respected.
Because the two sides were now on completely different sides. Roland Alpha represented the corrupt Empire, while Scarlet Eye now represented the anti-imperial organization, the professional assassin group Night Raid under the Revolutionary Army.
The two of them, who were once close friends, were now standing in a life-and-death duel. Scarlet Eye's feelings were complicated. Once upon a time, she was so familiar with Roland that she could often go to Roland's room and strongly request special tutoring. The laughter between the two of them never stopped.
Chi Tong's speed was extremely fast. She was as fast as the wind and as fast as lightning. She had pushed her speed to the limit. Now that the enemy was the strongest assassin in the empire who had trained her, she did not dare to hold back at all.
Otherwise, she would be beheaded, and it would not just be her, but her Night Raid comrades as well. Chi Tong had no choice but to give it his all.
"Drink!”
As if she was cheering herself on, Scarlet Eye took a step forward and rushed to Roland, while Roland did not move at all and looked at her calmly. Scarlet Eye did not dare to hesitate, and the unsheathed Murasame flashed with a cold blade and slashed forward.
The sharp blade slashed past the side of Roland's head. Just as it was about to be cut, Roland dodged it perfectly with a small movement. Then, he grabbed the blade with both hands and firmly fixed it to the side of his head.
Even though this was a demon sword that could kill with a single scratch, Roland's movements didn't stop at all. It was as if he didn't care if he would be grazed by Murasame's blade. He used his pair of fleshy palms to tightly grip Murasame's blade.
"Assassin's second rule: Use the target's thoughts to infer the target's thoughts and actions. Have you returned everything I taught you to me? I actually saw through their attack trajectories so easily. Idiot, it seems like the people sent by the dynasty are all idiots. They are unqualified!”
Chi Tong gritted her teeth and wanted to pull Murasame out of Roland's pincer attack, but Murasame's blade seemed to be firmly clamped by a pair of pliers. Roland's expression did not change as he slid his hands down Murasame's blade.
In an instant, Roland's hands slid down to the hilt of Murasame's sword, and then he turned his hands around and heavily hit Chi Tong's wrists. Chi Tong's hands hurt, and Murasame fell from his hands and stabbed into the ground.
"I've taught you before. You have to hold the hilt tightly. Are you an idiot to drop the weapon so easily? Not qualified!"
Roland's five fingers on his right hand were slightly bent, and there were faint golden lightning bolts on them. He directly bent down and invaded Red Eye's arms, then hit the center of Red Eye's abdomen with his palm. At this moment, golden lightning penetrated her body.
Soul Power!
"Ahhhh-!!!!”
As blood flowed out of the corner of her mouth, Chi Tong was sent flying. Her petite body crashed into the lawn closest to the manor's forest. Behind her was a dark shadow of the lawn that could not be seen clearly.
" Soul Power " was Roland's usual move when he fought with his bare hands. He concentrated the power of lightning and struck it out quickly, destroying the target from the inside. No matter how strong the target's body was trained, the inside was always the weakest.
Moreover, Roland could see the soul directly through the body, and the skill " Soul Power " could cause damage to the soul that ordinary people could not see, just like its name. This was a skill that only Roland could effectively use.
"You've already seen my soul power many times in the past. You actually didn't guard against this move of mine at all.”
" Cough, cough, cough, cough…"
Chi Tong's hands trembled as she bit her lips and shook her legs as she hurriedly stood up from the ground. Even though she had never slacked off on her training, she could not help but cough out a few mouthfuls of blood after being struck by the Soul Power.
Right now, she only felt that her entire body was extremely powerless. However, she also felt that it was strange. In the past, when she was training, she had also been struck by spirit power, but every time she was struck, she would faint. Why did she feel this time…. how could the power of spirit power be so weak?
