The Hero Rank assassin was just about to lunge forward when, at that very instant, a long-hidden presence finally moved.
From the shadows emerged the Gold Assassin, and clustered around him were the Elemental Assassins, the highest-ranked among their kind.
In the blink of an eye, a streak of dazzling golden light tore through the shrouding blood mist, slicing it apart. The brilliant radiance shot directly at the face of the Hero Rank assassin.
Even the assassin himself hadn't anticipated this.
He never imagined that Aurek had yet another powerhouse concealed at his side.
And from the aura that erupted, the Gold Assassin's strength was at least Hero Rank level 8 or higher.
"Careful!"
The other two Hero Rank assassins cried out in warning. But the one in the middle had no time to evade. All he could do was twist his body and force his shoulder forward to absorb the fatal blow.
Too terrifying. Around Aurek, there were still hidden powers lying in wait!
