After Daisy Wendy captured that clump of shadow, it continued to struggle violently within the spatial cube, like a somewhat malformed black monster.

Clearly, this assassin who cultivated the path of shadows had quite good timing ability due to professional habit, accurately finding the moment Loren was distracted and boldly making his move.

But his luck was a bit poor. He chose to begin his assassination when an unknown spatial-type psychic was present.

Perhaps his luck had always been quite bad.

A few days ago, outside the passenger terminal of the interstellar starship, he had also, due to some factors, failed to intercept Loren.

And in these recent days, after experiencing a rather difficult investigation within the unfamiliar main city of the Jadeite Star Domain…

It wasn’t until last night, within a gray zone, that he finally received news of Loren again.

Loren, commissioned by the Security Bureau, had annihilated the three major families and instantly killed over a hundred superhumans.

Upon receiving this news, he once again cursed the intelligence personnel of the Marquis’s family vehemently in his heart.

Suspected Third Rank?? Someone who can instantly kill over a hundred superhumans??!

You useless trash!! You have betrayed the Marquis’s grace!!!

All of you are damn parasites feeding on your positions without doing any work!!

After cursing the intelligence personnel’s dereliction of duty for a while, he finally calmed down.

After discovering that the target’s intelligence report and the target’s actual strength were completely mismatched, he hesitated for a long time: should he still continue to complete his assassination?

This question tangled in his heart for a long time.

In the end, he thought of the Marquis’s boundless grace, and then thought of Loren’s feat of exterminating the three major families.

Combined with what Loren had done in the Dusk Star Domain.

He arrived at a quite logical deduction: this Loren was deliberately targeting the entire old nobility class.

Such trouble could not be allowed to continue growing.

For the sake of the Marquis’s boundless grace, he felt he could take some risks to carry out the assassination.

If the assassination failed, he was confident he could retreat.

He was quite confident in his path as an assassin.

Moreover, even if he failed, he could still obtain some intelligence on Loren, making it convenient for the Marquis to dispatch stronger individuals next time to deal with Loren.

Under this line of bizarre yet logical thinking, he decided to continue the assassination.

Thus, he rushed overnight to the vicinity of the Interstellar Hunter Association, hid in the shadows of an alleyway, and waited for Loren to appear.

After waiting bitterly for half the night, he finally saw Loren, whom he had been constantly thinking about, this morning.

However, another unexpected thing occurred. Loren, who according to intelligence always acted alone, actually had other superhumans with him.

Moreover, judging by the way that female appeared, she was a spatial-type psychic.

So, he once again cursed his intelligence personnel in his heart.

Such parasitic intelligence personnel who feed on their positions without working should all be thrown into the sea to feed the fish!!!

But even facing a series of unexpected events, he still did not give up. He was extremely confident in his path as an assassin!

I! Luca Brown!! Am a tenacious and great assassin!!

Shadows flow by my side, when shadows envelop me, I am invincible!!

After encouraging himself in his heart, Luca Brown decided to gamble.

He was betting that the female spatial-type psychic did not possess spatial lock techniques.

After all, spatial abilities were many: teleportation, concealment, cutting, compression, locking, etc…

Thinking this, Luca Brown encouraged himself once more in his heart.

Even if she did have spatial lock techniques, ordinary spatial lock methods might not necessarily be able to trap him!

Among the high-ranking psychics of the Jadeite Star Domain, her name was not listed!!

He was a genius of the shadow path!!

He was a man destined to become the King of Assassins!!

How could he possibly retreat just because of a mere spatial-type psychic?!

His gambling mentality was simple.

Since he was already here, what kind of assassin could see the target and resist making a move?! Had he quit taking illicit substances?!

Besides, whose luck could possibly be that bad all the time!!!

I, Luca Brown!! I don’t believe it!!!

Today is the day my luck turns!!!

If he truly didn’t succeed, then he would just retreat directly. That way, he could at least give the Marquis some account.

After all, he had already made his move. The reason for not succeeding was all the fault of those damn intelligence personnel and had nothing to do with him.

Afterwards.

He saw that female spatial psychic again, silently saying something to Loren.

Although he couldn’t hear anything, his heart leapt with joy.

A psychic who could develop such an ability had a high probability of not possessing a high-end technique like spatial lock. The other party was a psychic biased towards auxiliary abilities.

Thus.

He decided to make his move.

He saw Loren become distracted.

He felt this was an excellent opportunity. He felt his luck had finally returned.

He made his move.

He got injured and lost a hand.

He failed.

He began to flee.

He was unfortunately captured.

He couldn’t escape;
the other party’s spatial lock ability was abnormally powerful.

He had betrayed the Marquis’s grace.

Damn intelligence personnel, you all really should be thrown into the sea to feed the fish!!!

…

And while Loren was distracted, the raven also began to ponder Daisy Wendy’s words deeply.

Therefore, the one man and one raven, with their backs to that silent attack, actually didn’t realize they were being attacked.

Luca Brown, although his luck was a bit poor, he was a bit foolish, and he liked to deceive himself.

But he did have one merit. There was one thing he truly wasn’t deceiving himself about.

He really was a genius of the assassin’s path.

The attack he launched from within the shadows was truly silent and traceless.

This was also the reason he could receive the Marquis’s grace. Trash was never worth cultivating and would never become the covert executioner of the Marquis’s family.

Only Daisy Wendy, who was facing Loren, discovered that skilled assassin due to her line of sight.

After she activated her spatial ability to erase one of the assassin’s hands.

The raven, who was also pondering Daisy’s words, finally reacted!!

Its master had just experienced a heart-stopping assassination attempt!!

Understanding what had happened, the raven merged with Loren at its fastest speed.

Large black wings instantly appeared, tightly wrapping around Loren, who was still lost in thought.

Simultaneously, the raven used all the fortune it could mobilize, attaching it all to Loren.

It did not mobilize misfortune to attack that strange shadow.

Because it was uncertain if there was a second assassination attempt targeting Loren.

It had to prioritize its master’s safety above all else!

Although there was a resurrection chance, that was too expensive!!!

And after the raven finished all this.

That shadow had already been trapped by Daisy Wendy within the spatial cube.

The raven waited quietly a while longer.

On this street, aside from the struggling of the trapped shadow, no other abnormalities occurred.

Seeing this, the raven inwardly breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed there was only one assassin…

Damn it! How could I have been distracted because of Lady Daisy’s words!!!

The now-calm raven silently reflected on itself.

At this moment, Loren, who had been lost in thought, finally returned to a normal state.

Discovering he was surrounded by black wings, he felt somewhat puzzled.

Just now… did something happen?
