Devil’s Son-in-Law

e a positive attitude to re-establish the relationship with Solanton, and also to please the Holy Lady’s apprentice and cardinal’s niece, Ms.
Eliza.
However, such a terrifying assassination happened in his own territory which also killed a local leader of the church.
If this matter was elevated, he might lose his position as the city lord.

“Ms.
Eliza, I, I, I… I really didn’t know that this would happen…” Fatty City Lord said incoherently, completely devoid of his usual eloquence.

“The Dagger Brotherhood!” Solanton suddenly remembered something and called out, “Mana was assassinated by the Dagger Brotherhood twice on the way before coming to the Garden City.
This should be the third time!”

“I’ve heard of this organization.” Eliza showed a thoughtful expression, “But if it’s just to deal with Pastor Mana, it’s impossible to choose this kind of timing to assassinate.
Mana is probably only incidental; I’m their main goal.”

When the Fatty City Lord heard it, he regained his senses and quickly agreed, “Yes, no matter what, this damn assassin organization is definitely involved! I will definitely investigate this matter with all my power and report it to the capital to uproot the Dagger Brotherhood!”

Whether it is the work of the Dagger Brotherhood, I need to get a black sheep in the first place to explain to Eliza.
As for who is behind the mastermind and what is the purpose, I’ll leave this kind of high-tech serious problem to the church itself. Thinking of this, Fatty City Lord immediately ordered the closure of the manor.
He also expanded the scope of the search to the entire Garden City and strictly investigated unknown people.
In fact, the Garden City was so large, and the strength and methods of those assassins were topnotch.
It was definitely difficult to find out what the result was with the garrison guard alone.
This move was more of indicating his attitude.

Mana was dead, so this meal could no longer be continued.
These people in the church must be calmed first.
Fatty City Lord offered a large sum of money to comfort and appease the church people while arranging manpower to clean up the scene.

However, unexpected changes happened again.

Eliza was listening casually to Fatty City Lord’s compliment when suddenly a strong crisis emerged.
This feeling had no warning beforehand; it was entirely due to the battle instinct from repeated tempering.
At this moment, Chen Rui’s voice sounded, “Ms.
Eliza, watch your back!”

Behind Eliza was a short bodyguard who was clearing the bodies.
However, it was this ordinary guard who suddenly exploded with a terrifying murderous intent the second after Chen Rui shouted.

No one would have thought that after the assassination, there would be a second assassination! In other words, the previous assassination was just a fake move, this blow was the real killing move!

The murderous intent target was Eliza!

In an instant, everyone felt that the entire sky seemed to turn into a sea of blood that was full of a massacre and death vibe.
Everyone was affected by the terrifying pressure.
They could hardly breathe and move.
In contrast, the suppression of the [Dark Sky] just now was just a kid’s trick.
This was just an aftereffect of the murderous intent!

With a terrifying will of death, a light stream swept toward the heart’s position on Eliza’s back at an indescribable speed.
Eliza, who felt the threat of death, had her hair all over her body stood up.
Her eyes were gleaming with silver light as a powerful spirit burst out.
Eliza no longer hid any power at the critical moment of life and death.

Everyone around her was blown away by the powerful repulsive force except for the will of death.

The light stream only paused, then it cast a heavy blow to Eliza’s back.
However, Eliza had already used this precious pause time to take advantage of the momentum to thrust forward which not only weakened the power of the blow, but she also dodged the vital parts.

Even so, Eliza still couldn’t completely avoid the blow.
She spat out a mouthful of blood.
A hole was actually penetrated in the ground.

After Eliza was struck, she twisted her body quickly and turned her palm into a knife.
She threw her arm like a whip.
The ‘guard’ assassin behind her did not manage to regain his stance.
The left shoulder was slashed by the knife.
The assassin immediately flew backward with a muffled sound.

A large fan-shaped crack appeared on the ground which had stretched for nearly 10 meters in an instant.
Several tall pillars were shattered and collapsed by the intangible aftershock.
The bodies of the guards who didn’t manage to dodge burst open.
The power contained in the strike was evident.

After the assassin missed a blow, he seemed to know that it would be difficult to do more, so he decisively chose to retreat.
By borrowing the power of Eliza’s blow, he fled into the darkness in a few blinks.

Eliza held her right chest with agony as she spat out another mouthful of blood.
Her body shook a little, “Wesley, hurry up.
Send me back to church and ask Paul to come and help me heal my injuries!”

The Light Knights quickly protected Eliza and returned to the church.
Solanton and Chen Rui followed them with a bunch of friars, leaving only the Sir City Lord drenched in cold sweat standing there, feeling helpless for a while.

On the other side, a short and thin figure wearing a security guard uniform held onto his left shoulder and sprinted quickly in the night.
Suddenly, the figure stopped and looked behind him vigilantly, but he found nothing unusual.

Just after the assassin turned his head, he was shocked to see that a figure had already been waiting in front.
The figure’s face was blurry; only the pair of eyes were shining, exuding a faint destructive breath.

TL: Shura? Who is behind these assassinations?
