With a flash, Anderson leaped through the shadows at an extremely fast speed, avoiding the assault of sand arrows headed in his direction. He then instantly appeared behind the old man and grabbed toward Lilia, who was sleeping soundly.
However, it was a pity that the old man's reaction was faster. Almost at the same moment when Anderson vanished, sand started to appear from the surface of the old man's body, wrapping Lilia up entirely. When Anderson reached out, he could not grab anything other than a fist full of sand.
In the next moment, sand started to gushed out toward Anderson. With a flash, he then disappeared once again.
Within a mere couple of seconds, he darted between the old man and the lady several tens of times. His shadow blade slashed at their bodies repeatedly, but other than sending sand scattering, there were no other effects.
