Sinister Knight: Dawn Of A Sinful Calamity

Chapter 121: Hiding Strength



Chapter 121: Hiding Strength

"Nana, you should see how strong I was, especially how high I jumped, it had the judges sighing as without doubt or need for even the others to have their turn I was the winner.

I mean what 7 years jumps 10 meters in the air without using mana right"

"You're right, it is really quite inconceivable that a 7-year-old would be able to do that, you're one hell of a talent Kail."

"Hahaha, no, nothing like that, I'm just built different, that's all." The boy called Kail replied.

Kail was a red-haired spirited boy who could be said to be in his last year as a teen, his face quite young and full of confidence. Experience the epic saga on m_vl-em|p-yr

With how freely he moved, how much he spoke and the excitement he talked with, Kail revealed a kind of naiveness that was hard to find in the world and at the same time an arrogance that would leave one doubting their observation.

The person Kail was talking with was an average-height woman with black hair that was cut to just above her shoulders. The woman had on a blue cloak with a scarf to cover her head as she made her travels but beneath her cloak, one could make out red clothing.

On the woman's forearms, she had silver armguards, on her neck hung a necklace with a yellow diamond pendant and on her feet, she wore quite hard brown boots.

With the reply this woman had given Kail, one would think she was quite interested in his words but the frown and dryness with which she had spoken said otherwise.

"Yeah, and that's not the only thing, you see there was this animal hunting competition that was being held when I was still seven.

Everyone was hyped about it thinking about who would be able to hunt down 8 or 9, can you guess how many I hunted"

"13"

"Nope, 35 and I would have hunted more if I hadn't gotten bored…."

Nodding her head, Naomi who Kail had started calling Nana turned to the left looking past Kail to the woman who silently walked together with them and gave her a pleading look, one to which she merely replied with a smile and shake of her head.

The woman's actions told Naomi that she unfortunately had to keep putting up with the arrogant braggart beside her.

Of the group, the silent woman to the side was the most eye-catching, her appearance surpassing those of her travel partners in spaded.

Whereas Naomi and Kail had on blue dusty cloaks, the woman had on a sparkling white cloak with golden linings on her skin and whereas Naomi was a beautiful woman and Kail a really handsome young man, this woman with her white hair had a beauty that surpassed that gave her an aura of exultance.

A few minutes went past with the three of them strolling during this part of their journey, walking through the rocky area they were now in and then the white-haired woman suddenly spoke her words gaining the attention of Kial and Naomi.

"Should we keep on moving forward or go around."

"Why would you even suggest such a thing." Naomi asked a hurt look on her face." If there are a group of idiots up ahead that think they can target us, then we need to educate them on how stupid such an idea is."

After Naomi finished speaking, Kail whose eyes had been narrowed spoke, his playful and naïve tone gone.

"I don't mind, this should increase my killing tally on this planet," he said with a smirk.

"Oh, do you usually go on killing sprees on the different worlds you visit?"

"Well not too often, but when I do, I make sure that world remembers me for centuries," Kail replied and then he continued, but this time back to his playful nature.

"Solara, I don't mind taking you with me to visit my next world, in fact, I actually want you to come along, I believe we'll have a lot of fun and the new perspective would do a lot for your growth."

"That is quite the offer" Solara said with a smile a dreamy look flashing through her eyes, but in the end, she shook her head.

"I have my duties here and most especially now, travels are not for me" Solara said but the boy merely smiled at her, staring at her with a look that showed her how entertained he was with her appearance.

Looking at the two of them, though Naomi was thankful that Kail had stopped pestering her, she was at the same time annoyed with how much Solara was sucking up to him, willing to please what she believed was his over-inflated ego.

With a roll of her eyes, Naomi looked forward and not saying a word to either of the two, she shot off, speeding towards the enemy that had hidden themselves in a concealing barrier.

Solara looked at Naomi's figure which had sped up ahead and sighed internally, thinking of her brashness, but then Kail's words snapped her attention.

"Unless you want to explain to your champion why her disciple is dead you should go after her."

Solara's eyes widened when she heard this and not even questioning Kail, she took off after Naomi.

"I would have expected such a barrier to be possessed by only the church but it seems there are some other competent people in this country.

That barrier isn't meant to conceal presence but strength and if not for the strong will running through it, I would never have guessed there was a threat in there.

Battling such a person should give me some fun."

With Blake still new to combat and lacking experience and a Rehabab being someone who specialized in fighting in flat areas, the terrain Blake had chosen was optimal for them both.

With Naomi estimated to arrive at Paldin city by evening today, Blake had been forced to travel all night the previous day to this location.

Here was a place devoid of human life for a good number of kilometres and though Blake would have wished that he could battle them at night unless he wanted to exhaust himself in his travels then right now was the best he and Rehabab could do

With the barrier which Rehabab had set, they waited for their target, soon spotting them and while they still debated the surprise addition of a third party to the group, they were soon surprised once more when their main target came speeding towards them.

"If we kill her, we can immediately flee, after all, our goal is to maintain the secrecy of your activities in Paldin city.

The rest won't have a reason to go there if she dies; they'll go back to the capital to report it."

Thinking over Rehabab's words, Blake nodded and immediately, just as Naomi got within range, Rehabab burst out with power his heavy sword appearing in his hand and spitting sparks of red flame as he sped towards the approaching woman easily breaking through the barrier he had put around them with a powerful momentum and then not caring about the surprised look on Naomi's face, he brought his sword down.
