My Magical System

Chapter 275 - 275 Right on time

275 Right on time

Zennie thought that if Mister Rossbert and the others were here, they might have a way to defeat the enemy, so she must inform them as soon as possible.

However, the words from the assassin froze her.

“Hehe. It’s useless to try to escape this room. This place is already surrounded by us,” announced the enemy.

After hearing that, they heard another commotion from outside. Judging by the noise, it seemed a battle was occuring. He seemed to be telling the truth.

There were more of them!

They noticed a grin at the assassin’s mouth.

“This is even worse than I expected,” muttered Klaus as he knitted his brows in dismay while forcing himself to get up. It looked like even their little hope had just gone completely. In that case, there was only one option left for them. To fight it through.

But, out of a sudden, a knife embedded into Klaus’ right shoulder, causing him to grimace in pain and groan.

Gah!

.....

With wide-eyes, he could not even see that coming, he stumbled back. This enemy’s fighting skill was far above him.

“Except for the lady, you will die here along with the mayor,” the enemy said coldly at Mister Klaus. After saying that, another knife appeared on his hand, then he kicked the tiled floor and launched himself to finish Mister Klaus first.

The three looked so stunned to react. It was as if time had stopped in them.

In the assassin’s hand, the sheen of his metallic knife drew a line in the air as it traversed towards where Klaus was.

“Wait! Let’s talk a-about it!” The mayor tried to open a deal, but the assassin did not stop. He continued towards Mister Klaus.

“Die!” The assassin exclaimed with the knife drew closer to finish Klaus’ life.

Unexpectedly, someone arrived.

“Boss! There’s a strong gold rank!”

The person who entered was part of the enemy. He reported about the appearance of a high-level person.

“Could it be… It’s Mister Rossbert and the others?” Zennie mumbled.

Klaus stumbled with his butt hitting the floor. Then his throat made a subconscious gulp.

“It looked like the others already knew about what was currently happening,” he said in a mutter while touching his neck. Fortunately, there was no blood yet.

The assassin in front of Klaus stopped his action before the knife could touch Klaus’ skin. Then, it glared with bloodshot eyes at his men. “What?! Can’t you deal with him?” The assassin said in an annoyed tone.

Although most of his men were only at silver rank, against a single gold rank, he believed their number was enough. Also, they weren’t ordinary silver rank. They were a stage only before breaking to a gold rank. Moreover, all of them already have high combat experience.

“B-Boss, he isn’t an ordinary gold rank. He defeated 10 of us very quickly!”

Hearing them, Klaus did not expect that Rossbert was that strong.

The leader knitted his brows at his subordinate’s cowardness.

After a few moments of contemplation, “Fine, I’ll deal with that person first. You come here and look after these people here. Be sure they don’t escape, otherwise prepare your neck.”

“Y-yes boss.” He bowed slightly.

“…..”

After the knife disappeared into his sleeve, the leader then walked away from Klaus and Zennie. The two breathed a sigh of relief. Although they were not out of danger yet, at least their lives had been spared this time.

Passing by on his subordinate, the leader’s eyes suddenly glinted and the knife appeared in his hand once again.

“Who do you think you’re trying to fool?!” He said coldly as he brought down the knife to tear the fool who tried to fool him.

‘What? I was discovered?’ His subordinate thought in shock. But it looked like he wasn’t his real subordinate. The leader noticed it right away.

The person who was disguised as his subordinate looked so surprised. He probably did not expect the leader would discover fast.

But before the knife could make contact, the glass window of the room broke out when two silhouettes came in.

Klang!

Pieces of broken glass hit the floor and created noises.

Everyone looked stunned.

At that moment, Wind Blades came flying toward the leader of the assassin. But the leader noticed it and was able to dodge it. However, because of that, the leader wasn’t able to finish the disguising opponent.

Realizing the situation, the person who used a disguised quickly jumped away from the enemy. He ran to where Klaus and the others were. His cover-up already disappeared and his real appearance was fully revealed.

“Eh? It’s you?”

At that, Klaus realized that it was one of his hired men. It was the great scout at his party. He did not expect this man to have such a kind of ability. It was a pity though that the enemy was able to discover him. Anyway, thanks to him the enemy halted his action.

“Lady Zennie, Mister Klaus, are you okay?!”

Hearing that, Zennie and Klaus reflexively glanced at the owner of the voice and saw a familiar figure.

“Mister Rossbert! Yes, we are fine. But Mister Klaus was hurt.”

Zennie looked more relieved seeing them.

“No, don’t mind me. It’s nothing so big,” replied Klaus.

“Mister Klaus, can you stand?” Asked the person who entered the room through the window along with Rossbert. His name was Troyer Des but mostly called Des by his co-members. He was one of Klaus’ hired people and he was a great Guardian member like Rossbert.

“Somehow… I still can,” said Mister Klaus.

“It looks like we arrived right on time,” Troyer Des said, then he helped Mister Klaus to get up.

“Thanks. Anyway, be careful, that one is very dangerous,” Klaus warned them as he pointed at the enemy.

Rossbert and Troyer Des looked at the enemy. The two of them squint their eyes. True, they could feel his bloodlust.

The leader in black grinned at them.

“Two gold-rank pests, eh…” he muttered.

“Let’s kill him before his companions arrive here,” Troyer Des suggested.

Hearing that, the leader smirked at them. “Heh! Come and try.”
