Through the glass of the third floor balcony window, Kana saw something behind her.
Or more precisely, a fiend.
A tall, scar-ridden, filthy figure appeared out of thin air. A broken sword was stabbed in his chest and a couple of arrows were stuck on his back and shoulder. His face was covered by a black mist and his hand was wielding a sharp blade.
Compared to the figure itself, the sharp blade was unusually bright.
It had a thick back and a thin edge. It wasn't long and narrow, it even looked a little bloated, like an enlarged Chinese kitchen knife but its sharpness couldn't be neglected.
Let alone a half-fiend.
"Flurry Blade Ghost!"
Kana cried out in shock.
She really couldn't imagine why a fiend like this, which only had a small chance of spawning after a massacre, would appear in Saint Brilliant High School.
Though, she knew what she should do.
Her hands that were clinging onto the third floor balcony suddenly loosened and her stabilized body fell down rapidly again.
His feet stepped on the wall, and he descended in a straight line. Then, he rushed down diagonally.
As a half-fiend, Kana knew she wouldn't have the slightest chance of winning against the Flurry Blade Ghost in mid-air. Even if they were on the ground, the chance of winning was less than 10%.
Compared to the Puppet Fiend and the Devourer Woman, the Flurry Blade Ghost was more than a level higher.
The Flurry Blade Ghost was a fiend that required a Huntress to deal with according to the Funeral Society's assessment.
Although Kana hated the Funeral Society, she still trusted the assessment of the Funeral Society. After all, the assessment was based on the sacrifice of countless lives.
If she didn't want to place her own life in the assessment …
She could only run!
Kana quickly planned her escape route after she made up her mind.
However, there was one thing that she didn't consider!
The Flurry Blade Ghost's speed!
The moment she stepped on the wall, the 'Flurry Blade Ghost' appeared in front of her and slashed down on her head with its unusual sharp blade.
Fuuu!
Kana Fiend's fists were covered in flames as she struck out fiercely.
The blazing flames crashed onto the Flurry Blade Ghost's body. Although it didn't cause any actual damage to the Flurry Blade Ghost, it allowed Kana to dodge the slash.
But …
The second slash followed.
Kana widened her eyes as she stared at the sharp blade.
The previous Raging Flames Impact was already her trump card. She didn't have the strength to use it again in a short period of time.
Simply put, she could only wait for death.
Wu!
The sharp wind stung Kana's face. Drops of blood seeped out from her pores.
But how could it compare to the impending death?
Sorrow appeared in the half-monster's heart.
She still had too many things to accomplish.
Now that she was going to die under the blade of the Flurry Blade Ghost, she was extremely unwilling.
But there was nothing he could do.
Until a cold palm appeared in front of her.
His palms were long and slender, and his fingers were powerful. The freezing power of the cold air was beyond imagination.
The Flurry Blade Ghost that she couldn't do anything to was frozen into an ice sculpture just like the Swallower Girl without any resistance.
But when she saw the owner of this hand, she felt indignant.
"You did it on purpose!"
Although Kana was reckless and hot-tempered because of her bloodline, she wasn't an idiot. She had quite the intuition.
Connecting it to the previous scene, it was easy for Kana to guess what had happened.
Kieran used her as bait to lure out the Flurry Blade Ghost!
Kieran didn't refute Kana's words.
It was the truth.
Just when he wanted to question Kana, he suddenly noticed something unusual. So, he changed his mind at the last minute.
Or more precisely, Kieran thought he could kill two birds with one stone.
It was the truth!
[Incident Solved 2: Puppet Fiend]
[Incident Solved 3: Flurry Blade Ghost]
...
The system notification appeared in Kieran's vision precisely, telling him that his choice was correct.
At the same time, it also solidified Kieran's thoughts that popped up in his mind.
He didn't answer Kana's question, instead, he grabbed the back of her neck again and stomped his feet in mid-air. [Modii Boots] shone brightly and Kieran somersaulted in mid-air with Kana in his hand, landing firmly in the corner of the building. The frozen Flurry Blade Ghost that fell from mid-air was smashed into pieces.
A dash of green glow appeared on the broken body.
Kieran picked it up and looked at Kana.
"They are very interested in your flesh and blood."
Kieran said softly.
Kana's body shivered.
She knew what Kieran was trying to imply.
"Using you as bait to lure out the fiends is the best thing I can do!
But, it's too troublesome and you aren't a reliable partner. So, I have a more direct way to get what I want … "
As he spoke, Kieran raised his left hand.
On his middle finger, there was a crystal ring that was emanating an unusual shine.
The moment she saw the ring, Kana's teeth started to chatter even though she was already shivering.
Her instinct told her that the ring before her eyes was very scary.
Kieran nodded in satisfaction when he saw Kana's reaction.
[Mesly Ring]!
A powerful item that contained [Charm] and [Dominate]!
Although there was a Spirit authentication, for Kieran who had the highest Spirit attribute, as long as he chose the right target, it wouldn't be a problem.
In fact, the half-fiend before Kieran couldn't be more suitable.
She lied to Kieran before, so she had hostile intentions.
Her Spirit attribute wouldn't be too high, otherwise, she wouldn't be affected by her bloodline.
There wasn't anyone else around.
It was enough for Kieran to use [Mesly Ring] without any burden.
There were too many things that Kieran had to consider in an unfamiliar dungeon world.
The unknown was always full of variables.
Kieran didn't want to be ganged up on by a group of enemies before he even figured out the situation he was in.
[Mesly Ring]'s effect was too hateful.
The crystal ring started to shine in an unusual way.
However, before it reached its limit, Kieran covered his left hand with his sleeve again. He frowned and looked at the corner not far away.
A few figures appeared from the corner almost at the same time.
Jen with a confused face.
Tanya with excitement.
And …
Oaker with a gun in his hand, he was extremely vigilant.
"You are quite lucky.
But, how long do you think your luck will last? "
Kieran stared at Kana as he lowered his voice and said slowly.
Immediately, Kana took a step back in fear as she trembled.
Even though there were more people around, Kana's fear didn't diminish at all.
When Oaker saw how frightened Kana was, he pointed his gun at Kieran without a second thought.
"Don't move, put your hands up!"
Kieran raised both of his hands in a cooperative manner as he shouted out his righteous words.
Though, his right hand pointed at the Flurry Blade Ghost's body that was cut into pieces.
"Inspector Oaker, I think you should pay more attention to that thing!"
Kieran said.
Oaker looked at the spot with the corner of his eyes.
