Chapter 79

Previously, I made a mistake with the chapter number, thanks to 'Baoqin Duzou' for the reminder.

-----------------------------------------

"Next, it's about time."

Levi took out his phone and glanced at it; it wasn't too late yet.

The excuse of wandering around before returning should be effective before Yui erupts.

They always say curiosity kills the cat, but men's curiosity is just as strong.

Today's events were truly fascinating, especially after the concert, when everyone hadn't started to leave yet. The vague feeling he had was confirmed by Nagato Yuki. Unconsciously, he had developed an almost absolute trust in the short-haired alien girl.

Since it's about the Holy Grail War, as long as he's careful and doesn't get seriously injured, Yui should forgive him. She might even give him a gentle reward out of concern. Levi's dirty thoughts, of course, he wouldn't dare let Yui know, or he wouldn't even be allowed near the cottage.

He quickened his pace and returned to where he had parted ways with Yuki in two minutes.

The venue, now empty, seemed eerie under the night sky. The silence combined with the large dome emitted a subtle chill.

If there's a chance, it would be a perfect place to hold a ghost story lecture for students.

Walking under the large dome, the diligent staff had not forgotten to lock the main door, but that wasn't enough to stop someone who wanted to enter. Considering the other party's abilities, it was better to avoid using teleportation, which could be detected by magic. Levi decided to act like a thief today. The air vent on the roof was a good entry point.

Silently breaking the glass and illegally entering was a basic skill for assassins, posing no challenge for Levi.

The sharpshooter's eyesight, which excelled in narrow, dark passages, was even more acute than a vampire's.

Following his memory, his professional experience ensured he didn't take the wrong path and easily reached the dressing room behind the stage.

The other party wasn't an ordinary idol singer, so approaching recklessly could easily be detected. Fortunately, he could sense the girl's presence, or he could wait for her to leave and then follow her, which would be safer.

Levi leaned against the wall, pondering his next move. Compared to other special ability users, being cautious was his good habit. Thanks to his sharp senses, he could always find the gaps to strike in chaotic battles.

But experience isn't always an advantage. Sometimes overconfidence isn't a good thing. By the time Levi realized this, it was too late.

A sudden gust of wind surged in the enclosed corridor. Unprepared, he hastily drew his black decorative gun to defend, but was knocked back by the intense impact, crashing through the thick, soundproof walls and almost landing in the venue's main hall where the concert had just taken place.

To be able to evade the perception even a vampire ancestor couldn't escape! And with such overwhelming power, a killer specialized in stealth rarely has so many talents.

After crashing through several rows of isolation grilles, Levi finally stopped and focused on the man who stepped through the hole.

Under messy golden hair, a handsome face that looked about his age. Dressed in black, his cold and resolute expression matched his appearance. In his right hand, he held a massive metal sword that had given Levi a hard time, slowly approaching him.

"Without even saying hello, that's quite impolite."

Recent comfortable living had made the originally taciturn and cold-blooded assassin lean towards being a playboy. According to Eve, Levi was like this even before he became a space assassin.

But his current chatter was not just idle banter in the middle of a fight. The reason was that his initial counterattack was too hasty. Strength wasn't his forte, and the moment the weapons clashed, he almost felt like Berserker had come back to life. Not only his right hand, which directly took the impact, but even his legs, which were just cushioning the force, felt slightly numb. Without knowing the relationship between the man and the suspected mage girl, and the possibility of being attacked from both sides, Levi needed to quickly get into his best condition.

Unfortunately, the enemy didn't seem interested in chatting. The golden-haired man suddenly kicked off with his right foot, instantly closing the considerable distance between them.

A cold, gleaming iron sword swung down, a decisive killing move to split Levi in two!

He quickly dodged to the side, but his reaction seemed to have been anticipated. Just as the weapon was about to hit the ground, the golden-haired man, unable to gain leverage in the air, twisted his body with his waist and swung the iron sword at Levi's next foothold.

The forced change in attack, though losing the initial momentum, was more than enough to deal with Levi, who hadn't fully recovered.

He couldn't hesitate any longer!

Ignoring the principle that reconnaissance should conceal one's strength, Levi activated his teleportation in mid-air to increase the distance between them. Then, he switched the gun to his uninjured left hand and fired the first bullet.

The man was clearly not from ancient times, and even Hikari wasn't unfamiliar with firearms. When he saw the black decorative gun, he was already on guard. Even though he was confused by Levi's strange movement, he instinctively dodged.

A killer who lived by the gun, the bullets he fired couldn't be so easily avoided. Whether it was Levi's bad luck or the golden-haired man's good luck, the bullet that hadn't left its target hit the man's left arm guard, sparing him from losing an arm.

The brief exchange almost put both of them in danger. They weren't theoretical novices who had never been in real combat. Suppressing their inner turmoil, they didn't dare to take their eyes off each other.

Levi never had the delusion of ending the fight with one bullet. Without waiting to see the result of his attack, he began his next move.

He circled around the golden-haired man, firing 'ki'-based bullets from various angles. The opponent lived up to Levi's earlier assessment, swinging the massive metal sword with one arm as easily as Hercules, always managing to block the bullets just in time.

The golden-haired man, with combat skills on par with Levi, didn't rush to attack after realizing he had underestimated Levi's tactics. Confident in his physical strength, he wielded the giant sword with ease, apparently determined to drag the encounter into a battle of endurance.

Even though he was temporarily in the lead, Levi couldn't relax. If the situation continued, he would fall into the golden-haired man's trap.

First, endurance wasn't part of his fighting philosophy. Moreover, if the fight dragged on, the mage girl would likely find him, and the situation would quickly reverse.

He had to end this quickly!

Both sides had only one weapon, requiring only one-sided defense. The inertia in this position was Levi's opportunity.

Assassins are dancers on the line of death. Caution is a good foundation, but a spirit of adventure is necessary to complete impossible tasks. As long as an assassin has enough confidence, they will boldly seize the opportunity!

Levi charged straight ahead, no need to aim at a stationary target.

In the moment of the other's surprise at his actions, he suddenly disappeared from his original position and reappeared on the other side, almost instantly sending the second death sentence!
