Thud!
"Mommy!"
Slash!
It was a total overpowering ass-beating the dozen or so assassins got from anyone but Sylvester. Elyon clawed the throats of his enemies, Felix stabbed them, Lady Aurora stabbed and roasted them, and Gabriel stabbed while taking the lord's name. Bishop Lazark first killed one, then made it a zombie and had it attack its allies, which was genuinely hardcore. As for Sir Dolorem, he moved like he saw everything all around himself in each direction and easily dodged all enemy attacks, then retaliated with minimal movements.
The Assassins turned out to be an A-tier group who had come out to make a name for themselves by trying their luck on Sylvester. Although there was an unwritten rule only to allow S-ranked assassin groups to go after a bounty between half and full million, they still went for it, as Sylvester's bounty was at precisely half a million.
