Chapter 181 - The Assassin Lana (1)
"That's the last report." Levina said out loud as she dropped a folder on top of a stack of folders and relaxed on her chair.
They had been going through reports for three hours now and after finishing the last one, Levina felt a huge sense of accomplishment.
"I wonder what Kai has been doing for the past few hours." Qin said as Levina shook her head.
"Honestly, only he knows what he is doing. We can at least now move and do something else." Levina replied as she stood up and stretched her body.
"These guys just left us to do all the work while they went back to their daily work. It's boring." Kiana commented as the four girls were alone in the war room.
The four members had left them to do all the work while they had gone away. Honestly, sorting through reports was a tough and boring job for Levina.
She was about to ask the others for something to eat when they suddenly heard the sound of an explosion.
They exchanged glances before quickly moving out of the room and running towards the source of the explosion.
They summoned their respective types of lightnings as they weaved through a crowd of panicked servants.
"What do you think happened?" Watanabe asked as Levian narrowed her eyes.
"Beat case scenario, the protestors set up that explosion, worst-case scenario, that assassination is somehow back. Kai never takes this long to kill someone so the only thing I can say is that something happened to him. Hope you guys are ready for a really tough battle." Levian muttered as they appeared in front of a blasted section of the wall.
Outside, a girl with cat wolf ears and a tail was hovering in the air with a bored expression.
"Is that a tail?" Watanabe did a double-take as she saw the tail coming from the girl's behind.
"What is a half-beast doing here? No, the question is, how did she even get here?" Qin muttered from behind the girls as they saw the girl's gaze travel towards the crowd below.
"Fuck, what is she doing there?!" Levina gritted her teeth as she saw Gaia standing below with a bored expression.
The wolf girl in front of them suddenly snapped to attention as a pillar of earth came out from below her.
"What is your name, tail girl?" Gaia asked as the girl frowned.
Levina and the others took this opportunity to release their attacks at the girl from behind and multiple bolts of lightning traveled towards the girl.
But at the last moment, she whipped her body ay at an unfathomable pace and managed to dodge every single one of the lightning.
"Never attack an assassin from behind cause they will always manage to dodge the shot." The girl said with a smile as something flickered past Levina.
She turned back to saw one of her golden lightning bolts that was stuck to a wall on the opposite side.
"Hmm, that should have hit you." The assassin said while narrowing her eyes as she looked at the girl below.
"My name is Lana little girl, and I will be your death." The girl named Lana said with a smile as Gaia puffed her cheeks.
"Stop calling me a little girl." She said while crossing her hands in a fuss as Lana's expression changed.
Her eyes turned sad as she looked at the girl with pity but her expression turned back to a neutral one as she took a deep breath and took out a dagger from her belt.
She threw it towards Gaia as a blue metal suddenly appeared in front of the girl in the form of a shield.
Lana expected the dagger to destroy the shield and easily pass through it but instead, it clattered against the shield and fell on the ground.
Her eyes widened as she saw the shield transform into an 8 foot (2.438 meters) tall rhino with a 3 feet tall horn.
The rhino then charged through the air towards Lana as the girl suddenly whipped dagger after dagger at the rhino.
But none of them did any damage to it so she instead created a swirling back mist and shot arrows towards the rhino.
The arrows destroyed chunks of the rhino's body as the blue metal cracked on what felt like the hundredth arrow.
'Why the fuck are people on this realm so strong?!' Lana thought as she flew back while throwing arrows at the rhino.
First, it was that handsome guy from earlier and now a mere 5-year-old child was pushing her back.
She wanted to release her higher cultivation but she had been warned not to use it unless it was absolutely necessary.
As she was battling the rhino, the hair on her back suddenly stood up as she turned back to see Levina floating in the air with golden irises.
Some strands of her hair were rising in the air as lightning traveled through her arms. Dark clouds gathered behind her body as thunder struck repeatedly.
A golden lightning bolt cut through the sky as it hit Levina's body. Her entire body shone with a golden aura as two spears of lightning appeared in her hands.
'Not another one!' Lana cursed as she flew away from Levina but by doing that she got close to the rhino who was barely thirty feet away from her.
"She can also wield golden lightning?!" Near the cracked place, Qin asked with an open mouth as Kiana and Watanabe smiled.
"That's just a little something Levina can do." Kiana added as Qin closed her mouth and raised her hands.
"We should help her." She said as she created small threads of lightning that went out from her hands.
The further they went, the harder they started to get as the threads soon turned into hard whips of lightning.
Qin controlled them with her fingers as they moved towards Lana and obstructed her path. Lana gritted her teeth as she saw the various things in front of her.
"Fuck it. I might as well get thrown out of the realm but I am killing all of you before I do that." Lana said out loud as she released her spiritual core cultivation.
The wave of power that went out from her body destroyed the rhino and whips of lightning created by Qin in a mere second.
"Now the situation has turned too bad." Levina muttered as Lana turned towards her with glowing eyes and a killing intent was released from her body.
The girl then moved forward as the sky rumbled in warning for what was about to happen.
