"She's an Adept," David murmured to Dobre, his gaze tracking the elusive assassin who vanished in the blink of an eye.
In an instant, she appeared beside David, attempting a quick strike. Anticipating her move, David unleashed a preemptive kick. Yet, with uncanny agility, the assassin evaded the attack before turning invisible.
"How are you able to follow her? She's too fast!" Dobre gritted his teeth, struggling to keep up with the assassin's rapid movements. She appeared behind him, swiftly slashing her dagger and inflicting damage before vanishing again.
"Focus on the change in environments", David muttered.
The assassin appeared again at some distance from them before she spoke her first words since the battle had begun.
"Who are. you ?"
Her emotionless voice sent shivers down their spine. Still, David replied, "We are escorting the Merchants to the Lionheart Kingdom."
