Chapter 9: Full Moon Night

  Lucas khe e brothers had a three-and-a-half-star strength level uhe full moon, and he realized that fighting them with E at level 60 would be challenging.

  So he adjusted his level to 80.

  At level 80, his enhanced bloodline ability: Wings of Time and Space, shifted from dormant to active.

  However, the power ption increased, allowing only 60 minutes of usage.

  He might o use level 100 for the Mad Axe Gang dungeon, so he had to manage his time carefully and not waste too mu the e brothers.

  Lucas drew his bdes, and with a fsh, he appeared at the brothers' side.

  Ice crystals coated his left bde, the chill already enveloping the e brothers before he even struck.

  His angelic right arm, even covered by a bck long-sleeved glove, couldn't hide the white light bursting forth.

  The right bde, imbued with holy energy, ignited with white holy fmes.

  Werewolves, being evil creatures, were especially vulnerable to holy energy, suffering 50% more damage.

  Lucas unched an attack with both bdes.

  The e brothers, ongaged, quickly realized they had severely uimated this seemingly delicate elf.

  Their bodies became damp from the humid air, which quickly froze into frost uhe cold.

  The icy chill ierg.

  The twin bdes approached their vital points, especially the holy fme-covered bde, striking terror into their hearts.

  They kheir werewolf bloodline was weak against holy energy.

  But... how could an elf wield holy fmes?

  The loomih spurred the e brothers into a. As experienced assassins, unlike Ron, they knew how to rea a crisis.

  Dodging was out of the question.

  In perfect synization, the brothers pushed against each other, their palms colliding, using their birength to push themselves apart.

  Just as they thought they had evaded the sshing bdes and prepared to transform, an unknown force pulled them back to their inal positions.

  What happehe e brothers had no idea.

  The bdes simultaneously cut across their chests.

  The holy fmes ighe evil blood, causing the younger brother to scream in agony. The holy energy assaulted his mind, disrupting his trol over his transformation.

  His body kept shiftiween human and werewolf, as he struggled to extinguish the fmes, whily burned more fiercely.

  The elder brother was struck by the ice bde, his wound frozen, preventing blood loss but causing the cold to seep into his body.

  This halted the werewolf's powerful regeive abilities.

  Seeing his brother's plight, the elder brother transformed into a werewolf.

  Uhe full moon, his fur gleamed with a dark sheen, his eyes glowed red, and pale fangs protruded from his mouth.

  His enrged body caused the wound on his chest to tear open, spraying a mix of id blood.

  Ign his injury, he lu Lucas with his cws. He had to kill this elf quickly to save his brother.

  But the elf vanished beh his cws.

  Reappearing mid-air, Lucas's right arm burst with white light, the bde covered in raging holy fmes.

  The elder brother tried to dodge the desding bde, but his body was mysteriously pulled back to its inal position.

  One ssh, and a wolf head rolled to the ground.

  Another ssh, a long ice bde carved a deep furrow in the ground, and the younger brother's screams ceased.

  His head rolled across the frosted ground. Lucas flipped in the air, regaining his bance as she nded.

  Behind him, the window iavern door smmed shut with a "thud."

  "Tess!" The window quickly reopened.

  "Powerful elf dy, is there anything Tess do for you?"

  "Take care of the bodies. You hahat, right?"

  "No problem, miss. I will gather the e brothers' possessions and have them ready for you when you return. I apologize for any offense I may have caused and ask for your fiveness."

  Lucas sheathed his bdes and adjusted Erion's level back to 60.

  "You didn't offend me... Thank you for your kind warning. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll leave this to you."

  "Rest assured, miss."

  Lucas leaped onto a nearby rooftop and ran towards the closest teleport anchor.

  Ihe Assassins' Tavern. The atmosphere had bee unusually lively due to the elf's visit.

  After all, such a beautiful elf was a rare sight, and the fact that she had taken on the bounty for the Horned Demonkin Jumu sparked even mossip among the normally stoic assassins.

  "We should have captured her. No way she should end up with that bull-headed Jumu."

  "Yeah! Someone would pay a fortune for someone like her."

  "Mind your manners, dies alemen." The lizardman barteapped the bar.

  "My master doesn't like infighting among assassins. Since Miss E took a task from here, she is reized as an assassin by the tavern for one week based oask level she accepted. If she fails, she won't be weled here for a month. If you want to make a move on Miss E, wait a week."

  "A week? Who knows where she'll be sold by then."

  At this moment, Evil Eye Tess walked in on his eight tentacles. The lizardman asked curiously, "Tess, why are you down here?"

  "The e brothers are dead. Someone o help me deal with their bodies. They're still burning with holy fmes, and I'm not toug that."

  The news of the e brothers' deaths shocked everyone iavern.

  Individually, the e brothers might not have beero, but their coorditacks were something no one wao face.

  Moreover, it was nighttime, and a full moon at that.

  Who could have killed them on their own turf?

  The lizardman bartender poured Tess a drink, knowing Evil Eye creatures like him had a natural fear of holy fmes.

  "Have a drink first, Tess. Someone will hahe bodies. Do you know who killed the e brothers? Was it a personal vea, or an atta our Assassins' Tavern?"

  This was the question on everyone's mind. If it was an atta the tavern, it could start a war.

  Tess ed a tentacle around the gss and dowhe drink in one gulp.

  Then he said, "It was that female elf… you all saw her. By your standards, she's definitely someone you'd want to capture and sell. The e brothers thought the same. They waited for her outside the tavern. They found her, and they lost their lives."

  The lizardman bartender asked in shock, "That elf killed the e brothers! She… she didn't seem that powerful. Is she really that strong?"

  "Don't doubt my eyes… no, this time I truly misjudged. The e brothers were killed without resistance, like killing insignifit ants. She wields both id holy energy.

  She perform short-distance spatial movement, and even… manipute time. The e brothers were pulled back to a previous moment in time and sin with orike each.

  trolling spad time es an enormous amount of energy, especially time... How her body provide so muergy?"

  The eavern fell silent.
