The instant Janus’ dagger pierced his skin, Cloudhawk felt the toxins begin to spread through his bodyIt felt like fire was being injected into him

Luckily it was just ato fear from poison

Janus h for he prepared to tear open a deadly gash through in his target’s frarip grow laxCloudhawk had engaged his phase ability and spun around with Arden Wrath cutting a deadly arc

A ferocious cut followed, cleaving Janus apart at the waist!

For the third time, Skycloud’s master assassin was slain

Both halves of the man wafted away froround five meters apartOnly a handful of creatures could survive a wound like that, none of them typical humans

But the mysterious patriarch of the Umbra family would not stay down

Cloudhawk made sure to watch carefullyAs he stared he saw the borders of that figure begin to dissolve into sure vanished entirely

Of course, that wasn’t realNo wonder he’d been able to land blows so easily

Cloudhawk looked around, this ti more than one of the manShadows descended on him from several directions, each onewith soulless eyesThe daggers in their grip seeh, were they all copies?

So that was his secretNo wonder he seemed invincibleIt was certainly a unique skill, but so about it made him think of Adder

It was no wonder this man was the head of the Umbra family, the leader of the Court of Shadows and Skycloud’s ultimate assassin

The physicality of these copies was very weakAll of their poas concentrated in their attacks, whose strikes were as deadly as the originalBut with each subsequent attack the copies became weaker

That was how Cloudhawk had been able to cut down several alreadyassassins were not warriors, they didn’t fare well in protracted battlesThey were trained to elile opportunity was all they needed

Ten of the shadows closed in one Cloudhawk and struck in unisonIt was a frightening scene, for this singular attack was delivered by Skycloud’s foremost killer, ten times in the same moment

Cloudhawk’s eyes slid toward Daen, roundHe took a deep breath, sheathed Ardent Wrath on his back and retrieved the Rekindling Lens from a pocketFirst he would have to heal the wound in her chest

But Janus would not stand idly by and allow him the chanceCloudhaas immune to his poison? They he would just have to kill hi him to pieces!

Those ten copies dissolved into smoke and were carried away by the windA ht beside CloudhawkThey attacked him with incredible speed

More folloave after wave converging on a single point

Meanwhile Cloudhawk remained with his feet planted and did not roped with lethal intentJanus could be just as deadly as a Master Demonhunter, but his attacks were fundamentally different

The likes of Arcturus and the Crimson One relied on psychic power, and had it in spadesWhen they suth the results of their power shook the earth

Unbelievably fast, supplemented by an assassin’s deadly precision and stealth
