Chapter 142: Ghost vs Ghostsaw - II (2/2)

"Oh? Does it only phase through objects when it's being held?" Merlin thought out loud

Merlin barelyfor his head, and then his attention was brought back onto the assassin once ht now?" Merlin asked, while holding his blades up "How high is your constitution for this to not take effect already"

The assassin didn't talk any one unar to er he dropped

Merlin caught on to his actions pretty quickly, so he stood around the dagger and prevented the assassin fro a few more strikes, Merlin landed a solid attack on the assassin'sit to shatter into several tiny pieces

The face that was revealed underneath was hideous Besides the bloodshot eyes that Merlin could see prior, the h it were stone being eaten away by erosion and time

"Ever heard ofat the man once more, only to find that he had ducked under his attack and made a dash for the door

"No you don't!" Merlin roared, sending his vines out to wrap around the assassin's legs, causing him to trip and fall face-first on the hard floor

Merlin dragged the man's body back to him, he watched as the once confident Ghostsaas now desperately trying to claw at the floor, trying to get away from the inevitable

Merlin leapt onto the assassin and began ravaging his defenceless back with his daggers And only s, Ghostsaw's body stoppedand the room went silent

「You have cos: Ghostsaw", rewards have been delivered」

"God, that was even roaned before yelling out to the governht, job's done, you can come out now"

Moments after Merlin yelled, Elwood Jenmier and his subordinates came out of the side rooht of a dead body, but Elwood just took a seat back at his desk with a smile on his face

"Well done" Elwood spoke, "I can see why you're the elf's favourite"

Before a conversation between the two could start, one of the subordinates walked over and picked up Ghostsaw's blade, and moments later he screamed in fear, only to drop the blade and back away fro, you idiot" That subordinate received a glare fro some people in to deal with the body"

The subordinate vanished into another room, as as he did so Elwood spoke to Merlin once oes to the conqueror" He said, "Please take the assassin's blade as you leave"

Merlin stood up and walked over to where the blade had ended up, and as he reached down and grabbed the blade, he felt an eerie energy coly cold to the touch

Merlin inspected the blade, wondering what secrets it held
