The inner clothing looked like the material used by Divergents from the Scorpion Mercenary Group, the same one Reign had massacred during the drug lab accident.

As his gaze lingered on her, a smile formed on her face. Reign felt something was wrong.

The next moment, a loud sound echoed.

BANG!

Instantly recognizing the sound, his instincts kicked in.

'Damn, he's thinking the same thing!' Reign gritted his teeth.

A subtle arc of lightning crackled at his feet, and he immediately moved to cover Aiku with his body.

A split second later, a bullet whizzed through the air ,hitting Reign's back and embedding itself into his bones. He could feel the impact from the shot and knew it was a high-caliber round.

But the bullet didn't penetrate deeply, stopped by his hardened shell.

"Stay down!" Reign commanded, pushing Aiku to the ground to minimized the vision of the sniper.

"What's happening?" Aiku asked, confused by the sudden turn of events.

"That dead Vice Governor of yours is also planning to kill you today," Reign responded, his senses trying to decipher the source of the shot.

As he spoke, he scanned the surrounding buildings, his senses sharpening as he focused on potential threats.

The security personnel, realizing the situation, tightened their formation around Aiku.

But then multiple shots echoed, taking out the security guards one by one.

Panic set in, and they all started running away, realizing their lives were more important than protecting someone that just sign their paycheck.

"We need to get out of here .We can't stay in the open." ," Reign spoke, pulling Aiku towards a nearby corner.

They reached a cover and ducked behind a large beam , taking a moment to take a break.

Reign wasn't concerned about the sniper hitting him because such a toy wasn't enough to hurt him.

However, Aiku was different. If she died now, all his efforts would be in vain, so he had to protect her no matter what.

Unfortunately, he couldn't use his full power to take out the threat. He was limited to only using some of his power because they were in a public place.

"Hey, can you regenerate if you get shot in the head?" Reign asked, glancing at Aiku. Given her nature, he assumed she must have some ability to prevent her from dying.

"No, this is just a vessel. I can't even use my power when inside this body," she replied with a deep sigh.

She planned to find a more powerful body in the future since her strength depended on the person she possessed.

The only reason she chose this host as her target was because Demi wore the pendant that had sealed Aiku.

"You're more useless than I thought," Reign sighed.

"I'm sorry," Aiku apologized, bowing her head.

"Is apologizing a common trait among your race?" Reign sneered.

"I'm sorry," she bowed her head again.

"Forget it, I will keep you a live because you're still useful ," Reign replied dismissively.

He glanced on the edge of the corner, and before he could even peek, a bullet narrowly missed his head, grazing his hair.

Whoever was using that sniper had excellent aiming skills.

'Human politics,' Reign sighed, shaking his head.

He was tempted to go all out and kill everyone on sight, but he reminded himself of the benefits he would reap later if he remained patient.

"Master, let's just hide for now, I'm sure the police will come after this commotion," Aiku suggested.

Reign pondered her words, seeing the logic in them. It would really be better to avoid any further actions in such a public place.

However—

"Duck!" Reign grabbed Aiku's head and forcefully pushed her to the ground, just in time for a blade to slice through the wall, cutting it like butter.

Next, he swiftly picked Aiku by the waist and pulled her away from the wall, creating a safe distance just as another attack slashed through horizontally where she had been moments before.

"La La La La,"

A singing voice echoed through the air, accompanied by footsteps that sounded more like someone hopping than walking.

Reign spotted a woman with pink hair and eyes peeking out from behind a corner. She had this crazy look on her face, and she was grinning sadistically like she just found a new toy.

However, what caught his attention were the intricate graphs reflected in her eyes, resembling those displayed on a computer screen.

'Virtual contact lenses?' Reign thought to himself.

"Brother, you're strong, aren't you? I never imagined that she could afford hiring someone with your caliber. So, what's the model of the power suit you're using? What company is it from to withstand a blow from a sniper?" Her voice was high-pitched as she bombarded him with questions.

She assumed that he was also wearing a power suit like her and would have never imagined that he was just built differently.

Reign, hearing this, immediately thought things through. He assumed that there was more to this assassination than meet the eye.

This girl was clearly from the High Tier Cities, and the dangerous aura she was emitting was even more powerful than the five Scorpion Mercenaries combined.

"Which group are you from?" Reign stood up, adopting a calm demeanor.

He decided to act like someone from the same line of work to extract information from her.

His priority was to protect Aiku until she served her purpose, so it was better to address the root of the issue immediately.

"You didn't even answer my questions, and now you're asking me one. Brother, you're quite the forceful person, aren't you?" She teased, raising her huge sword silver colored effortlessly.

"Oh, believe me, I'm being kind enough. If I weren't, you would already be dead by now," Reign replied with a cold tone, clearly not amused by her attitude.

As Reign's words cut through the air, the girl lowered her weapon for a moment, clearly offended. She was the type of person who loved to tease others but couldn't handle being teased herself

"I'll punish you, Brother, for talking shit to me," she spat, taking a deep breath before dashing forward with incredible speed, becoming a blur in the process.

If anyone else had been attacked like this, they wouldn't have known what hit them.

But Reign, with his lightning-fast reflexes, materialized a dagger behind his back and easily parried the first attack.

BOOOOOM!

Shockwaves echoed as their weapons clashed with immense force.

While the intense confrontation unfolded, bystanders who had been watching quickly scattered, realizing the danger of being caught in the crossfire.

"You're really strong, Brother," she spat out, her voice laced with frustration.

"You're just too weak," Reign replied with indifference, his tone dismissing her as someone not worth show his true power.

"You're tongue is too sharp. I'll cut it up for you," she sneered in annoyance, swinging her sword again, this time with even more power than before.

Reign however just blocked the attack effortlessly, not even flinching as he continued to protect Aiku at the same time.

"Let's see if you can handle this," she said, tightening her grip on her sword.
