'Danger'
Lucas' new ability [Fighter's sense] warned him about the assassination attempt of the Skeletelal assassin.
'Trying to assassinate me?'
Even without that ability, Lucas could sense that he became the target of an assassin as his senses were enhanced a lot after becoming a tier 1 general assassin.
Moreover, the attacker was only a tier 5 lesser assassin. So, Lucas revealed a slight smile on his face before using [Shadow clones].
Three similar clones appeared around Lucas blocking the Skeletal assassin from the main body.
'Huh? Clones? How did he find out?'
In the eyes of the skeletal assassin, Lucas was just a tier 3 lesser knight; however, when he saw Lucas summon three shadow clones, he knew his assassination attempt had failed.
'So what? I can fight him head-on and I can still win.'
The skeletal assassin was confident and decided to kill the shadow clone blocking him from assassinating Lucas.
