A large, purple-colored mansion was in front of Frank's sight.
It seemed way more beautiful than Frank's mansion, and it even had extra decorations, making it resemble a large temple in some areas. Around the building, there were large gardens of all types of roses, Dhuja's favorite flowers.
Within the territory, there were several magic artifacts crafted by Rank 3 Magus, mostly detection-based artifacts similar to cameras on Earth, which would alert the guards about any intruder.
Alongside this, there was over 20 Magus around the perimeter, although there were only 6 that was Rank 3, with the rest being all Rank 2.
Frank glanced at this while covering himself in shadows, and within the shadows themselves as well.
Through the use of Shadow Travel, a strong spell he had created before, he was able to freely enter shadows, although he could not attack, nor breathe inside, much like Zero and her squad, who have a similar ability but as a Skill.
Even with such limitations, the Spell/Skill was especially useful for infiltration, and although there were spells similar to the outside of Frank's circle, it seemed that it was extremely rare, and they had not met any Magus that could use it aside from Vheslia herself.
"Frank, let me take care of them," said Gwendolyn through the Telepathy Skill, which she acquired after relentlessly training the Sonar Wave Skill and awakening it.
"No, you are way too strong for these ants. Let Zero and her squad swiftly take them out… For now, let's destroy these artifacts," said Frank through telepathy, as Gwendolyn nodded.
"We shall take care of them as you desire, my lord," said Zero through telepathy as well, as she and her squad of assassins rushed through the shadows stealthily.
Flash. Flash. Flash.
Several shadows moved through the night, suddenly reaching the shadows made by the soldiers after being hit by the bright moonlight.
Two soldiers who were covered in black clothes and were holding weapons were talking rather carefreely.
"Another boring night…" said the first.
"Well, that's how the boss wastes her money, paying us to do nothing all night," laughed the second.
"Since that Rank 5 Magus showed up that she had grown paranoiac. That guy must not even know about us anyways, why is she so worried?" asked the first one.
"Well, the boss has always been that type of woman…" said the second one.
"Man, she's hot though…" said the first one.
"You've been saying it since we came here four months ago, you will never have a chance with Dhuja…" sighed the second.
"Agh, you don't have to be an asshole over it!" said the first one.
"Hm?" asked the second one.
"What?" asked the first one.
"There's… something… behind you…" said the second one.
The second soldier suddenly felt a horrifying presence approach him, as he became completely paralyzed, however, he manage dot faintly tell his comrade that there was a shadowy figure emerging behind him, just before a silver blade rushed towards the man's neck, a Rank 2 Magus that could literally burn an entire town if he wanted, and slit his neck clean.
SLASH!
Blood spurted everywhere as the man's screams of agony were blocked by a hand tightly blocking his mouth from shouting. He tried to desperately throw magic somewhere, but the blade was charged with a special curse that inflicted a magic seal in those it hurt, although it could only affect up to Rank 2 Magus, it was enough to one-shot kill this "small fry".
"Mmmggghhh…!"
The other soldier in front of him had his neck slashed clean as well by another figure, as it groaned in agony while having his mouth blocked by a strong hand and materialized shadows.
SLASH!
"Mmmmgghhh…!"
The two bodies were suddenly thrown into the shadows a second after, as the other soldiers glanced with confusion as they could have sworn that they heard someone groaning…
However, seeing that there was nothing wrong, the soldiers kept glaring around and chatting, although when one of them finally realized that two guys were missing, he felt a horrible pain through his neck as it was slashed open, which also caused his magic to be sealed, and an instant later, he was sent into the shadow realm.
One by one, the soldiers began to disappear…
When they clearly realized that something was wrong, Zero emerged from the shadows and confronted the last two Rank 3 Magus who decided to run inside the manor to alert Dhuja.
As they saw the beautiful and curvilinear figure of an elf woman emerge from the shadows while wearing tight and sexy black clothes, the two Rank 3 Magus raised their magic weapons while feeling the dreadful aura of her body engulf them…
"W-What is that aura?!"
"She's part of the assassins…!" They can freely travel through shadows… such power is ridiculous!"
"Although I would like to hear more about how amazed you are about my capabilities, I must take you out immediately for my lord's sake… Don't worry, it shall be a swift death," said Zero, as she rushed towards the two while coating herself in shadows!
FLASH!
"Do you really think you can fight two Rank 3 like us and win? Stupid whore!" roared one of the Rank 3 Magus, as he fired a large ray of light towards Zero!
FLASH!
The ray of light came out of his magic blade, which had magic circles inscribed on them for easy conjuration of quick spells, without the need for incantations.
The ray of light flew towards Zero, as she quickly disappeared and completely evaded it!
Flash!
"W-What?"
"Fool, did you really think a ray of light would damage me?" asked Zero, as she emerged right at the side of the Magus, raising her knives!
"Not on my watch! I knew that you would appear at his side, you fell for it, you fool!" roared the Rank 3 Magus at the side of her target, as he suddenly activated a large magic circle he generated through a special artifact that was able to create inscriptions in the ground quickly, however, the artifact was a one-time-use, ad it resembled a jewel that he threw into the ground!
FLASH!
A sudden explosion of ash emerged right over Zero's body, as she felt a strong seal take over her entire body!
She slowly began to… become petrified!
"Petrification?" she said in surprise, petrification was a strong curse-type status effect of the Earth Attribute, not many Magus was able to use it due to its complexity and power, but this was a Rank 3 we were talking about, they were strong Magus with many tricks behind their sleeve!
The two Rank 3 Magus smiled eerily as they saw Zero being almost completely covered in hard stone… She was done for!
"Hehe… you are done for, elven woman!"
"No matter what kind of power you have, against my almighty petrification, you can't fight back!
The two Rank 3 Magus walked near Zero as she glanced at them rather expressionlessly.
They began to glance at her petrified body with sickening smiles.
"Come on, if you behave we might heal you…"
"Yeah… But you will have to repay us a lot!"
"Oh? Is that so?" asked Zero, as sudden cracks emerged all around her body…
Crack, crack!
"W-What?"
"You fool you are going to shatter yourself into pieces like that!"
"Let's see if that can really happen!" laughed Zero, as she suddenly freed herself from the almighty petrification!
CRASH!
Rocks fell from her body as she revealed her figure being completely fine!
"I-Impossible! This is… simply impossible!"
"Believe it… Phantom Assassination!"
Zero suddenly coated herself on phantom and shadows, as she became several afterimages of herself and flashed towards the two Magus!
In three seconds, their entire bodies were showered in constant slashes!
"Unnggaaaaaaaaahhhh…!"
"Unnnggyaaaaahhh…!"
Their bodies were slashed into pieces, as they fell over the ground into a pile of flesh and blood!
Zero felt the slight amount of EXP earned, although it seemed like almost nothing compared to the EXP of killing Rank 4 monsters.
"Pathetic dogs… All those who try to stay in the path of my lord shall meet a bitter yet swift end…" said Zero while waving her hands, as the blood that stained her knives flew into the ground.
Flash! Flash! Flash!
Several other figures emerge at the side of Zero, her squad.
"Lady Zero, we have taken them all out."
"Excellent, and it hasn't even been three minutes yet, my lord shall be pleased by our performance," she said, as Frank and Gwendolyn moved through the shadows of the interior of the manor.
