Chapter 422 420:Hidden Rats
Outside the Gray mansion, two people observed the happenings of the Gray mansion.
The peace and silence were broken by quakes transmitting throughout the city.
People around City were startled by the sudden tremors.
There were no traceable fluctuations for common people but those who were awakened and had a little bit of mastery in sensing the flow of mana picked up on the utterly horrifying maelstrom all around the giant mansion.
As a matter of fact, the magical energy leaking out was so savage and brutal that the space around the mansion started to distort and a crack appeared causing the walls to break into rubble.
The knights and armed personnel were alerted and looked for the source of the odd event.
The guards of the Knights mansion started to evacuate the people working in it while the Guards working in the City tried to guide those who were close to Gray\'s mansion to leave quickly.
Shops and stores were closed down.
Inns and bars were emptied and people were asked to leave.
Cracks appeared on the ground on the roads as they tumbled like waves.
Debris and dust started to fall inside the mansion. All the glassware inside broke due to the loud tremors.
The garden was in a mess and everything was in a frenzy and a state of panic was seen all around.
Standing on a small building, one of the dark robe figures was worried seeing the scenario and broke the silence.
"Is the man who is currently fighting inside our target?" Loar asked.
"I am not sure about that?" Moss spoke with a grim expression.
"We just have to wait and see the result. Whoever comes out as a victor, we have to kill that person?"
"But Miss, how did you expect that man to be here?"
"We received the intel that someone is investigating Count Gray and would sneak close to him and we want that person to be killed but seeing the things happening within two hours of the delivery, I guess that this wasn\'t the targeted person," Moss spoke with a weary gaze.
The person who might be investigating Count Gray should be quite strong and backed by strong guards but the person who is fighting Count Gray now seems to be alone.
They have been guarding the place for a while but they didn\'t even notice a suspicious individual entering inside.
While two Dark Elves discussed, their expression crumbled.
\'This...what the hell...?"
BOOOOM!
With a loud blast, a part of the ground collapsed and a horrifying beam of light erupted from the place shooting up towards the sky.
The violent energy churned the sky, shocking everyone in the mansion and shockwaves spread causing everyone to stumble on their feet.
The two Dark Elves are startled by what they saw and quickly take a step back with a conflicted look.
The aura close to the Mythic rank that was fighting now vanished instantly by the attack.
The light ascended towards the sky and dispersed in an instant but it didn\'t go unnoticed in the eyes of others.
"Ahhh!"
"We are under attack!"
"Run away from here!!"
"Get out of here or you will die. Hide somewhere."
Screams and shrieks echoed and the common people were frightened and panicked.
People started to evacuate and spread far away from the Gray Mansion.
"It was killed like this. We don\'t know whether we have to kill this person or not, so what are you going to do now?" Loar spoke with a stifling expression.
"Calm Down Loar, hide your aura. We are quite far from the place."
"Let\'s observe the human for now and if he is deemed dangerous we will kill him. He can\'t get through concealment." Moss spoke, however, her complexion distorted and her eyes opened as wide as a saucer as the presence of the man disappeared before she disappeared.
All of a sudden a dark veil seemed to envelop them masking away the outside. Moss was quite familiar with the situation.
It was the looming shadow of death.
All the hair on the back of their neck stood up.
Swallowing their dry saliva they tilted their head when they heard a faint hoarse voice.
"Yo, ladies...I hope I didn\'t make you wait long enough."
The voice crashed onto them drowning them in despair.
Moss didn\'t make any hasty move and raised her brows at Loar and then, a short sword appeared in her hand and she screamed.
"Loar leave!"
BOOM!
An ominous energy struck Alex trying to invade inside him and interfere with his mana.
Alex stared at a pair of dark short swords which clashed against his sword.
The shortsword had been filled with curses and if the enemy got a cut, he would suffer a terrible fate.
Loar who was about to run stopped as her body froze watching the scene of Moss\'s attack being stopped easily.
Alex\'s eyes become cold and the temperature plunged greatly which causes Moss to become speechless.
Moss felt as if she was glancing at her death. The man who appeared with a casual and jovial tone and seemed to become indifferent abruptly.
As soon as she attacked, she felt that something inside the man changed and triggered the man\'s rage.
Mana leaking out from Alex was enormous and the space around him started to twist.
The building on which they stood started to shake and cracks appeared all over causing it to shatter.
Moss cried inwardly with a single thought.
\'Does this guy have a dual personality?\'
\'You are the one who appeared here to attack me. I didn\'t find you. Moreover, what is this ridiculous strength? You are clearly at an early legendary level but he didn\'t even flinch even though my attack carried all my strength.\'
\'Moreover, the concealment skill that man used carries a slight trace of darkness mana.\'
\'Just from where did this beast come?\'
Alex\'s eyes restrained Moss with a single glance.
Her short sword was imbued with a curse, her nails had been tainted with poison, and there is a short dagger at the end of the ponytail which had been poisoned on top of all this, she had the blessing of the darkness which was quite strong.
The other lady who stood rooted didn\'t have the blessings which meant that this lady is special.
Countless thoughts appeared in his mind and he grinned.
Alex pushed the short sword and pointed at Moss.
"I will give you a chance. Tell me who you are and why you targeted me. I will let you live."
Moss\'s brows furrowed for a moment.
\'He surely had the strength to kill me so why is he giving me a leeway? Is he bluffing?\'
"Sir, you were never our target. Unfortunately, you appeared at the wrong time and wrong place"
"Ohh!" Alex\'s lips curled and spoke.
"Girl, you might not know me but I know you very well Miss Moss."
"I am your superior and a member of that organisation."
Moss blinked her eyes with a startled look and asked with a grasp"Sir, who are you?"
Alex sneered and said, "You are not worthy to know my name."
"Let\'s get out of the place before we get caught. Meet me outside the city." Alex muttered and disappeared in a flash.
"And yeah don\'t bring that trash with you. Her presence is irritating."
