Chapter 217: Who Dares to Attack My Home?

Where the hell do these guys get a space shuttle from? Kenway lowered the tip of his sword, almost touching the ground as he mumbled. The black sword, covered with uncanny purple sheen which looked lethal. There were winds originating from the sword, fluttering Kenways hair and clothes. The sword looked deadly with Kenways aura splitting the air itself in two. He looked like a divine sword incarnation with his unholy sword in hand.

The space shuttle looked magnificent too. It was 60 meters tall with a metallic black body, weighing more than 2 tons. There was a Unity symbol on top of it and charging towards the mansion with the speed of sound. There were flames coming out the back of the shuttle, and it was approaching with record speed.

Kenway looked at the shuttle with a glint in his eyes and wondered what he should do. It wasnt that hard to defend against the shuttle after all if space shuttles were that strong, people would use them to fight against monsters. At least they could kill a few of them. But they were helpless against monsters, so against Kenway, who could kill monsters like sowing the field, the shuttle had no danger. But it was a space shuttle after all and there were many compartments carrying dangerous explosives.

Kenway waited with his sword pointing at the ground. The purple sheen was getting denser, while Kenway was waiting for the shuttle to approach. He looked like a tiger about to jump on its prey. He had to calculate the best course of action to nullify the danger of the shuttle, and the after-effects of the explosions. He thought many things and calculated many formulas in his head before he took action. At that time, a hand patted him on his shoulder. He turned to see Evelyns solemn and dedicated face.

He felt his heart ache. He knew what Evelyn wanted to do. He wanted to stop her, he wanted to protect his mistress. But at this point, there werent many things he could do anymore. He could only nod and blacken his heart.

When the shuttle was a few hundred meters away from the mansion wall, Kenway leaped with great force and vanished from where he was standing. When he appeared the next second, he was in front of the space shuttle. His sword still pointing to the ground was not aimed at the shuttle. Kenway pulled his arms back, and from ground to sky swung it towards the speeding giant mass. Sky Slash.

The purple sheen left the sword with the swing and cut the sky into two. The sheer light coming out of the attack blinded onlookers, while the shuttle cleaved into two pieces. The force of the attack pushed the pieces apart, but it wasnt enough to protect the mansion. Evelyn raised her two palms, each pointing one piece of the shuttle, and the flying giants started to shift in their trajectories. At first, the impact was minuscule, but in seconds, two pieces flew at two sides of the mansion.

When they landed with a great thump, dust and debris covered the sky, but it was only the first part of the attack. Evelyn focused all energy she could muster in her hands and in the next second, two barriers formed out of thin air around two pieces.

The shuttle pieces exploded where they fell, but the mansion only quaked a little. Not even glass was broken although the tremor was great. The barrier Eveyln had created saved the mansion. But her nose was bleeding. She fell on her knees, looking pale.

Kenway looked at the cockpit of the shuttle but saw no one. There were no pilots driving it, and only an AI was controlling it. A dangerous look flashed in Kenways eyes, but he ignored it and looked at Evelyn, ready to protect her with his life. Although he was suspicious of the whole ordeal happening, it wasnt time for pointing fingers just yet. For now, he had to protect everyone in the mansion to the best of his abilities.

The timeframe he was occupied with the shuttle allowed criminals to enter the mansions garden. Guards were battling with all their powers. They were fighting with their lives on the edge now that they had to fight melee. Kenway looked at the hardly fighting Roger and realized he was in a bad shape too, so he speeded towards that direction. But before he could do so, a figure appeared in front of him with a giant axe in hand.

Nice axe. Kenway said as he looked at the black-clothed figure. There were no pieces of flesh that could be seen, so Kenway couldnt recognize any of the assailants. But there was only one family using axes this big with such finesse. Bach Family.

Hehehe. The assailant laughed like a maniac. Kenway stood on his ground for a second and hesitated. What if they are trying to frame the Bach Family by using giant axes? Or is this a double trap, forcing us to think that they are imitating the Bach Family, while they are indeed the Bach Family?

Kenway had to push these thoughts back of his mind because his opponents started to attack. Axe was giant yet it wasnt slow at all. Most of the orbs didnt have weight but still had devastating momentums. Because of it, they were easy to swing. This axe was E-Tier, and the user was also strong. The only silver lining in the whole assault was, the attackers werent using their ultimates to avoid being recognized. It made the defending team stronger, albeit barely.

Kenway had the agility advantage, not because of the weight but style. Axe-type attacks had strength and charge requirements, making them lumpish. Kenway dodged the attacks and returned his own with the sword in his hand. As a swordmaster, his attacks were versatile, and he could stab, swing, swipe and use all forms of sword attacks at any distance.

But his goal wasnt winning this battle but reaching Roger. Roger was getting tardier and tardier, and now he was in trouble. He was leading his enemy with footwork towards Roger, fighting with his ultimate beside him. Evelyn was also in bad shape, so Kenway had higher priorities.

As he was about to ditch his opponent to charge a strong attack against a few enemies fighting with Evelyn and Roger, he noticed an invisible danger appearing out of nowhere behind Evelyn. Eve, watch out! Kenway shouted, but it was too late. A blade formed in the air and went to slash Evelyns throat. Kenway was still far away, and couldnt reach even if he were to destroy his body. His strongest charge would still take him a second, and in that second she would be dead.

In despair, Kenway saw a giant figure jumping on Evelyns body, pushing her out of the blade's target. But the blade was like a fired arrow, it was already in the air, and couldnt be stopped. When it landed, a bloody rose bloomed in the air, and a giant figure fell to the ground with his neck bleeding. The dagger is still stuck.

NO! ROGER! Evelyn shouted as she realized what had happened, while Kenway rushed with all his might to attack the invisible enemy. The enemy had long gone now that he failed, but he at least managed to kill one of the key members of the Cross family.

Kenway called all the guards and they fell back while escorting Evelyn inside. The enemies were still bountiful, but there was nothing they could do but turtle inside. But at this time a roar made everyone shake with fear.

Who dares to attack my home? A jet plane appeared in the sky, and from it, Mercer jumped out, free-falling towards the mansion with all his glory and anger.
