35 Chapter 35:- [Bonus Chapter 2] Assassins
"This....." At the last moment, a white transparent barrier was created surrounding Liam. When the beam of light hit him, the white barrier easily protected him.
Boom!
All the guards, Silas and Liam looked at Cain and Rose in shock. The person that they were thinking was slacking off was actually able to react fast enough to protect their client. This made Silas feel a little embarrassed. He admits he looked down on them after seeing Cain's low level.
"We have been surrounding. Take Liam inside the carriage." Liam's face turned pale as his body started trembling. He dropped the food on the ground and ran as quickly as he could. While Silas guarded him with his body, Liam somehow managed to enter the carriage.
Meanwhile, Hearing Will's words, more than 50 assassins came out of the darkness surrounding the group.
"Rosie, back me up." William looked at the group of 50 assassins who were in gold rank. Will and Rose alone cannot take on 50 gold-rank assassins. But with the 25 guards, Will and Rose will have some time on their hands.
There was no need to say any words. It was either killed or kill the enemy.
Shadow blink!
Swoosh!
Under everyone's surprised gaze, the man named Cain disappeared. Before anyone could react, he appeared 25 meters away.
Ahh!
Silas and others looked at Will in shock to find a sword stabbed through one of the assassin's hearts.
[Ding! You have absorbed the soul of a level 60 human being.]
[Ding! Your agility [8+], Mana [15+], Strength [11+]
[Ding! You have leveled up]
"Are you sure this man is at level 12?" The leader of the assassins asked in shock. There was no way in hell that a level 12 can move this fast. Even he barely managed to see Cain moving.
On the other side, while everyone was momentarily stunned and shocked by the performance of a level 12 man, Rosie used one of her skills on the assassin that was standing 10 meters away from her.
Hypnotize!
"Everyone attack." All the assassins were hiding their body and face by wearing black clothes and black masks. In the darkness, no one was able to see their faces.
The assassin leader locked his eyes on the Will. Seeing how fast his men were killed, he knew that he had to take out this 17-year-old young man first. He was about to attack Will but Silas the guard captain stopped him.
"Why don't you pick up someone of your size?"
Will glanced at the guards who previously looked at him in disdain now being overwhelmed by the group of gold rank assassins. "It won't be long before the assassin kills all the guards."
Blinking Steps!
Will was about to help the guards but 15 gold rank assassins stood before him. "You have some skills. Let's see if you can take on 15 of us."
Will's eyes flashed in killing intent as he coldly looked at the assassins before him. "Gentlemen, I hate to inform you that you all are dead."
"Kill him."
Shadow Blink!
"Where did he go?" Under the disbelief gazes of 15 assassins, the Incubus King disappeared faster than they ever could react.
The Night was the domain of the Night Monarch. If these assassins had attacked Will during the daytime, he would have died. But in the night, Will was the king. Night passively increased his stats by 50%. Will's agility had reached [91] and under the effect of blinking steps, his agility was further increased by [15+]. Being the ruler of Night, he further received a 50% raise in his agility, making his current agility reach a terrifying [159].
Even a level 100 would have a hard time keeping up with the current William.
Swoosh!
Wise Blizzard Slash
Using Shadow Blink, he appeared behind the 15 assassins. Before anyone of the assassins could react, he jumped in the air and released an arc of sword rays. Instantly killing all the 15 assassins in half.

Meanwhile, "Let's kill her first." Realizing that Rose was a mage, several assassins jumped to attack her. But just when the assassins crossed the 10 meters mark, all of them once again fell under her hypnotized skill.
"Hehe!" Everyone felt their bones were going to melt hearing the giggle that sounded like a melody in their ears.
Wood Spikes!
Using Wood manipulation Rose created several wooden spikes 1 meter long and instantly killed the assassins who were under her control.
bang!
{Ding! You have obtained the soul of a level 55 human being.]
{Ding! You have obtained the soul of a level 51 human being.]
{Ding! You have obtained the soul of a level 69 human being.]
"Using this hypnotize skill on a target whose level is higher than mine takes a lot of mana. There is also a chance that the skill won't work if the target has high intelligence stats." Rose sighed as she felt almost 1/5th of her total mana being consumed.
Wooden Spike!
Seeing another group of assassins coming from behind, Rose used wood manipulation once again.
Booom!
From the ground, hundreds of wooden spikes instantly killed another 4 assassins. The assassins weren't ready for this kind of attack and ended up with hundreds of holes in their bodies.
{Ding! You have obtained the soul of a level 59 human being.]
{Ding! You have obtained the soul of a level 58 human being.]
{Ding! You have obtained the soul of a level 63 human being.]
Seeing Rose focusing in the other direction, level 70 assassins sneakily attacked her.
Beam of destruction!
Just when he was about to release the attack, he suddenly found his head flying as he felt the world around him spinning. When he fell to the ground, he was horrified to see his body still standing without a head. The last thing he saw before losing his consciousness was the cold eyes of the man named Cain.
[Ding! You have absorbed the soul of a level 70 human being.]
[Ding! Your strength [16+], Mana [11+]
[Ding! You have leveled up]
"Don't leave your back open."
"I already had conjured a barrier behind my back. Also, I am constantly protecting my body with mana."
Will noticed that by now most of the guards were dead or almost on the verge of death. The remaining assassin was ganging up on the guards hoping to break the defense line and kill the merchant. "Rosie use your illusion."
"Alright but remember given how high the level of the assassins is, my illusion will only work for 5 seconds."
Shadow Teleport!
Illusion of Heaven!
Will was about to use shadow teleport again but the moment he was about to activate his skill, a figure appeared before him. He widened his eyes as he found the tip of the sword headed toward his throat.
"Now die" At the last moment, Will moved his neck to the right, narrowly dodging the tip of the sword by only a few inches. But the sword still left a cut on his neck.
After barely dodging the attack, William noticed the vicious glint in his eyes. Noticing the poison-coated dagger in his left hand, he moved barely reacting in time, and managed to defend against the attack.
Clang!
Silas used this free chance to help his men. He already had lost 15 of his men.
'Not good. I am barely managing to dodge his attack, if this continues I will be in a disadvantageous situation.'
Clang!
Clang!
Seeing William forced to retreat back, Rosie used her remaining mana to launch an attack. Suddenly feeling the ground slightly tremble the assassin leader quickly used one of his passive skills.
Under William and Rosie's shocked eyes, the assassin's leader disappeared and reappeared 5 meters away.
[Ding! The host has observed and copied a passive skill]
[Ding! Does the host wishes to learn the passive skill Instant Teleport?]
[Yes] [No]
Berserk!
Sword dance!
A surge of Aura burst out of William's body. The Aura around William suddenly changed. His eyes turned Crimson red. At that moment it was as if that man Rose had known for years had turned into a different person.
Swoosh!
William appeared behind the assassin leader like a ghost. When he felt the cold killing intent, he felt a shiver running down his spine. Before he could react, Will instantly sliced his body in half.
[Ding! The host has learned the passive skill instant teleportation (level 1)]
[Ding! You have absorbed the soul of a level 97 human being.]
[Ding! Your agility [21+], Mana [20+],
[Ding! You have leveled up]
[Ding! You have leveled up]
Huff! huff!
Seeing the man with red pupils coldly staring at them, the remaining assassins started shivering.
Swoosh!
Shadow Blink!
