“A swordsht as ri shabby leather armor made of python skin, a swordssword and created snohite afterisword struck, a bone-chilling wind issued, even covering the ground in a layer of thin frost

“AHHHH!”

Pale Justice was just inserted into the ground, but a rah thunder was traversing through the sword The frenzied flow of lightning caused the unfortunate assassin’s body to convulse ceaselessly

“Pitiful child I doubt you can understand why a ic shich had no contact with its wielder was able to attack you I should reet back so that they can use it on others”

The lightning froon Sword Seal that I activated wasn’t too strong The assassin whose body was convulsing was still able to grit his teeth and cli with him, but I simply patted the black cat on my shoulder

“You lunatic! To think that our Phantom Serpent Bandits were destroyed by you lunatics, a person who talked to his cat… AHHHHHH!”
