The masked man!
Hanses gasped when he saw the figure at the other end of the bridge.
He wanted to warn Kieran and Lawless, but before he could open his mouth, the masked man had already arrived at the other end of the bridge.
However, before he could open his mouth, the masked man had already moved from one end of the drawbridge to the other. He went past Kieran and quietly rushed into the battle between Kieran and Jorque.
It was like the night breeze.
It carried a trace of coldness, but it did not attract attention.
Hanses stood there with a blank look on his face.
The feeling he got from the masked man reminded him of someone.
An impossible person.
Still, Hanses did not lose his ability to react.
He knew what he had to do now.
"Careful!"
Hanses shouted.
...
Jorque, who was still in mid-air, felt a headache in his chin and dizziness in his head. He still could not believe that he had been hit so easily.
A chase followed.
Kieran was like a cheetah hunting for its prey.
He quickly caught up to Jorque.
His legs left a trail of afterimages as he ruthlessly kicked Jock's waist.
Jorque, who was already in mid-air, suddenly changed his direction.
Kieran did not mind changing his direction for Jorque again.
However, Hanses' shout changed Kieran's mind.
He was supposed to kick Jorque's left leg, but instead, he kicked it behind him.
He did not turn around to kick Jorque. Instead, he did it from the bottom up.
Kieran's face was facing down, and his chest was parallel to the ground.
His eyes were also able to see the reason behind Hans's shout.
The masked man!
Kieran could not be sure if the masked man was the one who had caused the massacre in the Church Hall, or if he was another member of the organization, but he knew one thing.
He had to be careful when dealing with the masked man.
Kieran's left leg did not hit the masked man, so he quickly retracted it.
A sudden flash of light from his sword proved that Kieran had made the right choice.
If he had maintained his previous posture, his left leg would have been crippled.
As for Kieran, who had abruptly retracted his strength, he immediately lost his balance. His chest was originally parallel to the ground, but now his back was parallel to the ground.
From the looks of it, Kieran was about to fall heavily to the ground.
Buzz!
The masked man's long sword hummed softly, and the tip of the sword went straight for Kieran's head.
However, a crescent-shaped energy collided with the masked man's sword first.
Kieran's left leg, which had been forcefully retracted, did not stop there. After a 360 degree arc, he launched another attack from above.
Like a golden hook hanging upside down, he used the Blade Kick to cut out a qi force and collided with the opponent's long sword.
Dang!
The crescent-shaped energy collided with the longsword.
The former lasted for only an instant before shattering.
However, the latter's longsword could not move forward even an inch.
Kieran, who had lost a lot of stamina, had no intention of resting at all. He rolled on the ground and escaped from his opponent's attack range.
When he reached the city gate, Kieran finally stood up and took a breath.
The masked man's gaze followed.
His eyes were filled with surprise.
Even though his eyes were covered by the black gemstone lenses.
Everyone at the scene understood his surprise.
"Not bad!"
The man's hoarse voice, which sounded like it had been altered, was able to utter such a compliment.
After that, the masked man no longer paid attention to Kieran.
The man looked at Jock.
"Captain of the Bestowed, Jorque!
One of the people that the Grand Duke relies on! "
The masked man said slowly.
"Who are you?"
Jorque was still feeling a little dizzy after taking two kicks from Kieran, but it did not stop him from sensing danger from the masked man.
It was the instinct of a veteran soldier.
There was no mistaking it.
"Who am I?
The one who will kill you, of course! "
The masked man laughed.
His laughter was also altered. It was very sharp and piercing, and it did not sound like his original voice.
"Kill me?"
Jorque laughed coldly.
As the captain of the Bestowed, Jorque was very confident in his own abilities.
He did not think that the masked man could defeat him.
Even if the masked man gave him a dangerous feeling.
This was Jorque's home turf.
He had a lot of helpers in the Grand Duke's castle.
Although some of them had been occupied by the rebels, some of them had not been moved at all.
They were there to deal with the situation before them.
Whoosh!
Bang!
A firework was fired into the night sky, bursting with red sparks.
After a while, Gradon appeared with a few groups of fully-armed soldiers.
Gradon saw Kieran and the other two.
The masked man in the middle of the field was much more attractive than the three thieves though.
"Gradon, the Grand Duke's Knight, the commander of the entire Western region!
It's not a bad idea to get rid of you along the way! "
The masked man didn't show any signs of anxiety because of the increase in the number of people defending the castle. Instead, he spoke in a calm voice.
His voice was calm and collected.
"What's going on?
Not only did the masked man not stop Jorque from setting off the firework, but he also doesn't seem to care about the number of soldiers on the castle's side. "
Kieran stood in front of the castle gate, looking at the masked man suspiciously.
The masked man was very strong!
Kieran could not deny that.
The fact that the masked man had been able to block his [Blade Kick] after he had used [Bide] was enough to prove his strength.
However, that did not mean that the masked man was strong enough to ignore the number of soldiers on his side.
There were at least 60 to 70 soldiers on the castle's side.
Including the captain of the Bestowed, Jorque, there was no lack of good fighters among them.
Kieran did not believe that the masked man would be able to deal with them all at once.
"Roar!"
The masked man let out a long and resounding roar.
"He has something up his sleeves!
What could it be? "
Kieran reacted when he heard the roar.
He looked around with furrowed brows.
Kieran wanted to find out what the masked man was relying on.
However, he noticed that something was wrong with Hanses.
Kieran wanted to ask what Hanses had found out.
However, the tremors under his feet and the huge figure charging at him interrupted Kieran.
The rhino!
The armored rhino!
Looking at the tank-like armored rhino charging at him, Kieran finally understood why the masked man was so calm.
With an armored rhino as his assistant, he would not have cared about the masked man.
Plus, the armored rhino had come with the rebels.
Now, it was obeying the masked man's orders.
So, the masked man and the rebels …
They were on the same side!
Kieran frowned at the next moment after he came up with such a conclusion.
Kieran suddenly thought of something.
The Assembly Hall Massacre!
