289 Seizing the Chance (2/2)

Clown laughed, like a real creepy clown, ”Sure, they can, but they cannot always keep an eye on Lucien. I'm a level five grand knight, I have my own way of doing this. No matter who Natasha sent to protect Lucien in Aalto, they should hardly be above grand knight level. They would not notice how I approach Lucien. Don't forget how they called me before—I was the Killing Puppet in the Dark Mountain Range. All I need to do is to secretly enter his place, control his mind and get the information I want. If Lucien only has the power of a knight in training like what we know about him, this should be just a piece of cake. If he casts magic spells, that's exactly what we're waiting for…”

Looking at the creepy clown mask, Lend could not say no. He nodded lightly.

...

A few days later, late at night.

An almost invisible figure secretly entered the garden villa owned by Lord John. The guards from the Intelligence Department did not notice anything special.

On the corridor, a maid was walking downstairs holding a candlestick. Earlier today, she left a piece of her accessory in the living room, so she hurriedly got back and tried to find it back.

The dim candle light and the early spring temperature made the maid a little scared. Suddenly, the wind lightly swayed the curtain and the maid shivered. She saw some illusion-like figure flashing across, like a ghost!

However, a second later, when the maid looked around, there was nothing there.

The maid hurriedly went back to her room, drawing a cross in front of her chest. She decided to come to the living room the next day.

The door of the guest room where Lucien lived opened silently, and a creepy clown mask appeared in the darkness.

Clown, wearing a colorful costume and plain black gloves, lifted his hands and started to move his fingers like playing piano, as if he was looking for the invisible threads in the air.

Suddenly, in the bed, Lucien's body bounced up! His arms and legs looked distorted. However, silver light shimmered around his hands, and the invisible threads were pulled apart.

”Level five grand knight?” Clown was very surprised. At one moment, he got nervous, because facing a grand knight, he might not have much chance to win.

However, soon Clown realized that the power came from an extraordinary item that Lucien was wearing. No matter who, either Professor or Natasha, gave Lucien this, that was very generous.

Seizing the chance. Lucien's left hand pulled apart the threads on his throat and shouted out loud:

”Assassin!”

The young musician's voice spread well.

Although he tried, Clown failed to completely control the musician. Instead, Lucien managed to grab the blue sword to protect himself from the many threads in the air.

Knowing that the power only came from an magic or divine item, Clown was confident that he still had the chance to fulfill his task.

However, the secret guards from Intelligence Department, before Juliana and Minsk could do anything, had already lit the signal flare. The firework light lit up the sky.

Staring at Lucien's face for two seconds, Clown decisively turned around and jumped out of the window. He ran as fast as he could in the darkness, since he knew that if he wasted another second, the princess or Camil would definitely come after him.

Lucien did not use magic. Right now he was using the sword to cut the puppet threads. The threads could not only control one's body, but could also poke into the body to hurt the organs.

”Are you alright, Mr. Evans?” A guard ran into his room and asked concernedly.

A thought flashing across, Lucien started coughing hard to let the blood come out from his throat, ”I'm okay… just some small injuries…”
