The answer was obvious the moment Sylas thought of it. At that moment, he took a leap.
BOOM!
The location he had just been standing on exploded. Had he been just a second slower, he would have truly been screwed over.
A howl of laughter came from behind Sylas, and a figure with shadow-like speed appeared behind him in a blink.
Sylas twisted in the air, using the momentum to slap at the danger coming from his back. This person had actually managed to hide from his visualization, and the moment the dagger moved, it felt like death's whisper had come to his door once again.
However, Sylas was frighteningly calm. Even when he recognized the face of Alex Renolds, he didn't react in the slightest. It was as though he understood that even the slightest distraction had the possibility of ruining things for him, so he didn't even give it a chance to do so.
BANG!
