After leaving Graff's mansion, Levi walked towards a nearby inn. He passed through a damp, dark alley and vaguely felt someone was following him. He turned his head to look, but there was no one.
He felt something was off and silently circulated the Black Snake Breathing Technique. The Black Snake Seed danced with his heartbeat, and wisps of black gas flowed into Levi's arms. If Levi's clothes and armor were lifted, one could see the black gas enveloping his forearm. It was ferocious and terrifying, like a dense mass of black snakes.
Suddenly, he raised his head and noticed a black shadow attacking him from above. A dark blue dagger came down from above and stabbed his face. The blade was so fast that Levi only had time to block it with his arms.
Slash! First, Levi's clothes were torn apart. Then, the iron rings on Levi's armguard cracked and fell to the ground. The next moment, a sharp object cutting rubber could be heard.
