Chapter 11 – Equal Life Contract (IV)
————————————————————————————
“Who are you?” Jia Nei Di frightfully shouted, clearly sensing that the person behind him could desire his life at any time.
“This is the Milan Inst.i.tution for Magic and Martial Arts. I am like you, I am also a student here. You want to bully my roommate, you ought to first ask me if I agree or disagree.” This pet.i.te student was not a stranger; it was Ye Yin Zhu’s roommate Sura.
Cold sweat dripped down Jia Nei Di’s forehead. He had already guessed that the person behind him was of the a.s.sa.s.sin division. Over in the warrior district, regardless of how strong the warriors were, they didn’t want to face a member of the a.s.sa.s.sin division. a.s.sa.s.sins were everywhere, and which of them wanted to be the focus of a killer? Jia Nei Di had always been confident of his own strength, but Sura’s sudden touch from behind his body, without him even slightly antic.i.p.ating it, made it clear he couldn’t handle an a.s.sa.s.sin. Even if they were inside the inst.i.tution, it was unlikely someone would suspect an a.s.sa.s.sin’s hostility. An a.s.sa.s.sin’s first lesson when facing the enemy was that regardless of location, they might be required to kill the potential threat in the cradle. Thus word circulated throughout Milan Inst.i.tution for Magic and Martial Arts: Provoke a teacher, but don’t provoke a student of the a.s.sa.s.sin division.
“This, this big brother, I know it’s wrong. I didn’t know Ye Yin Zhu is your roommate. Let me go, and we’ll immediately go our own ways.” Jia Nei Di’s voice trembled because the black dagger appeared to rub against his neck.
“Next time I see you, I will not speak again.” Sura’s gentle voice suddenly became dark. What does not speaking represent to an a.s.sa.s.sin? It meant elimination.
The black blade quietly disappeared like magic, and Jia Nei Di and his six companions watched attentively as Sura’s body faintly flashed before unexpectedly disappearing from sight. Stealth was a concealment skill only advanced a.s.sa.s.sins could grasp.
Deep fear clutched at these seven’s hearts. Jia Nei Di glanced at Ye Yin Zhu and didn’t dare make a verbal spectacle. He led his companions away with their tails between their legs.
Ye Yin Zhu’s gaze moved towards the left of his body where a pet.i.te body noiselessly came into view beside him. It was Sura.
“Sura, thank you.” Yin Zhu humbly smiled.
Sura looked at Ye Yin Zhu with some amazement because the moment before he appeared, he could clearly sense intangible spiritual waves latching onto his body.
“Even if I didn’t make a move, I’m convinced you could have settled it. Scaring them is better, however. That Jia Nei Di is a well-known Heavy Sword division second-year. His martial arts are pretty good. Next time, I reckon they won’t dare to seek you out to trouble you.” Sura laughed happily. Now, regardless of his deadly eyes or his cold murderous, forest green gaze, they had already disappeared from view.
Sura’s performance just now made Ye Yin Zhu feel something completely new. He now knew that his roommate was actually strong.
“Congratulations, Yin Zhu.”
“Congratulations? Oh, you’re talking about our match with the Water division today?”
Sura gave him a thumbs-up and said, “I really didn’t expect the Divine Music division to also have a fortune-changing day. Come on, let’s go back to our dormitory. What do you want to eat this evening? I’ll make you something.”
