Chapter 529 - The Powerful Holy Church Assassin (2/2)

Even though Jiang Fei had said saving King Elric was of priority, she treated everything that Jiang Fei said as a priority. She would do whatever it took to complete all of Jiang Fei's request.

Even though all three main characters were Lesser Overlord tier, King Elric was a Magician, Morgan was a Warrior, and Sylphy was a Thief. That gave her the highest advantage to take out Morgan. On the other hand, the weapon in Sylphy's hand was the real game changer. It was the Luminous Needle that was not returned to the Cardinal but was given back to Sylphy.

That weapon was the perfect armament for the perfect assassin. An instant-kill, 100% Defense Ignore effect would literally end Morgan's life with a single stab!

At this point, Morgan and her other High Lord NPCs had surrounded King Elric and attacked him. All of the personal guards of King Elric had already long perished.

"Hahaha! Elric, how was my surprise ambush? Did you really think that you could continue to rule the Seven Seas when I am still here?!" Morgan roared delightedly as she thought her plan was perfect. She had tricked the most elite soldiers of the Merfolk to fight in a battle that was faked, putting Elric's kingdom in a weakened state.

"That only thing that I was surprised was your complete lack of empathy. Nevertheless, I am but disappointed about not killing you earlier. I should be been merciless against you lot," said King Elric as he understood that his life was coming to an end.

Suddenly…

"Huh?"

"My husband sends his regards," said Sylphy as she leaned forward and whispered into Morgan's ears.

Morgan looked down at her chest and saw a sharp blade piercing through.

Panicked, Morgan tried to pull herself from the blade but it was already too late. Even though she tried to erect a magic barrier, the Luminous Needles ignored all magic barrier and defense. In the next second, the blade glowed with a faint blue light.

"ARGH!" cried Morgan as the Instant Kill effect of the blade was activated.

There was no resistance. Only death. An Overlord tier boss had instantly been killed by another. There was no surviving if you were on Sylphy's hit list. Technically, you could if you had the Shadow Armor to negate death itself.

"Lady Morgan!" cried the rest of the Naga bosses.

"What's going on…?" King Elric was thrown. Just as he thought that he was about to die, a beautiful female appeared out of thin air and killed Morgan, his all-time nemesis.

"I'll explain the situation later. For now, we need to kill every single one of the Nagas here," said Sylphy.

"Alright," said King Elric decisively. Even though he did not understand why would someone from the Light Faction help him, it mattered most that he lived to tell the tale. The two cooperated with each other and started to turn the tables around.

Sylphy was only doing what she was requested of. She did not care about the little things about King Elric and his squabbles with the Naga. The lovestruck woman had only one thing in her mind, to complete the request and gain the approval of Jiang Fei. King Elric, on the other hand, was genuinely angry at the Naga. Although he had hated the Naga as they were constantly at war with the Merfolk, King Elric was "royally" pissed off for being held captive!

When two Overlord bosses were agitated for bloodshed, no one besides those with similar power could stop them. The Nagas had just lost their strongest fighter. There was no hope for them anymore.

Sylphy, being the Holy Church's Assassin flashed around, killing almost every single soldiers with a single stab. Not even the Higher Lord tier bosses were able to fight back. Be it an ant of an angel, all that was stabbed by the Luminous Needle shall perish!

King Elric was a killing machine once he was free. Powerful devastating spells were unleashed one after the other, killing more than Sylphy could since he had AoE attacks. In less than three minutes, King Elric had unleashed two Forbidden Spells. The death count on his name was so high that Sylphy could only stand out for killing Morgan.

"Ding! Legendary Hidden Quest Completed! Difficulty - Mission Impossible!"

Fifteen minutes later, Jiang Fei received the quest pop-up. After looking at the reward, Jiang Fei was stunned.
