Hero Of Darkness

Chapter 645 shinigami Armor

As soon as Blackwall was done with taking care of his opponent aka Rodan, the dark elf magician… he too shifted his gaze towards the middle of this 50 kilometers radius battlefield. His gaze fixated on the happenings at the center.

Meanwhile, on the southern end of this massive isolation barrier was a scene where two enemies were probing each other by exchanging various moves.

Flap! Flap!

In the air, was a first stage saint female archer with the head of a raven and two black wings on her back.

From the first impression, one could tell that it was Mikaela, a hybrid archer of the Tengu species and one of the two saint rank archers of the hero’s party.

And before Mikaela, floated her opponent who was a human with a black mask covering half of his face from the left side and had dark green eyes.

His long shoulder-length black hair fluttered slowly while he was donning a pitch-black lightweight assassin’s gear with two red daggers in his hand.

This assassin who was effortlessly dodging dozens of lightning element arrows was none other than Ronin, Kahn’s left-hand man who was also the main person in charge of gathering intel, setting schemes and thinking of ways to overtake the enemies like a war tactician.

But now, this assassin who didn’t have a single long-range attack skill was facing an archer who had excellent speed, dexterity, elemental advantage and long attack range.

Everyone knew how Assasins only had the advantage in a battle as long as they were not sensed, exposed and had the opportunity to land the one decisive strike to kill a target. But once they were out in the open… all of their advantage in a battle was gone. In simple words… It was like Ronin was fighting the one enemy he was most vulnerable against among all the classes.

After receiving Kahn’s command, Ronin also asked the system about his current stats.

—————-

Bloodline : Vilgax

Current bloodline purity : 100%] reported the system.

Finally, Ronin summoned his new gear and armors, infused his bloodline and quickly, his entire look changed.

Even Mikaela was taken aback by this sudden and saw her enemy’s appearance change instantly.

A slim man donning a compact assassin gear that was a combination of black white and yellow. Many parts in this armor were made of black dragon hide including the hood, the black mask which covered his face horizontally had yellow outlines.

The gauntlets, the shin, boots and the shoulder had golden yellow and pointy parts coming out that were no different than sharp daggers themselves. And on the back, 3 long black stripes came out that looked very similar to the grappling extensions Ronin had in his real legendary rank Thanatos form, just many times smaller.

Overall, the Shinigami Armor set equipped by Ronin was the best assassin armor set one could get that didn’t hinder the user’s speed but rather looked like it would enhance it instead.

[Following are the effects of the Shinigami Armor :

The Eminence in Shadow :

The Shinigami Armor will enhance the user’s speed, dexterity and perception of time by 200%.

General Ronin will get an additional 50% boost in attack power while using this armor during nighttime.

Note : Spirit Replica, Invisibility and Phase Shift skills are now accessible to the general without transforming into the real form.] reported the system.

[Good. Means I already have an advantage in speed compared to her. That way, I can fend off her attacks and those arrow attack skills easily. And with my increased speed, I can close off the distance between us as well.] thought Ronin as he sidestepped and dodged an arrow aimed at his head.

Ronin then quickly brandished his new daggers that too had a change in appearance.

The long daggers that previously had only black curved blades now glimmered green while all the patterns and runes on them turned golden yellow. The twin daggers now looked like the sharpest blades that could even cut through a boulder swiftly.

[Following are the effects of the Erebus Daggers :

Death is a Mercy :

Erebus Daggers will improve general Ronin’s critical hit chance by 80% and critical damage by 30% during a battle.

Once hit with it, the fear toxin that was mixed with them using the user’s bloodline would apply the same effect as the fear toxin and the opponent will start hallucinating, greatly affecting their senses and response time.

—————-

No Time To Die :

Once used against an enemy via a surprise attack, the daggers will activate a stun effect that will incapacitate the target for 10 seconds regardless of their rank.

However, the hit must be critical and landed without the enemy noticing the incoming attack.

Note : Shinigami Armor and Erebus Daggers can also be used during Phase Shift and Invisibility ability since they’re now extensions of general Ronin’s body after being infused with his bloodline.] revealed the system again.

[I see. I was going to overwhelm her with my speed alone but now, I must test these daggers in a different way.] thought the Spirit Assassin general

Ronin kept evading the barrage of attacks made by Mikaela as she launched hundreds of electrified arrows in succession using her epic rank bow and skills of an archer.

Just then, Ronin formed a perfect plan that would help him test his new armor set and the daggers while he met perfect conditions to see their highest output.

He glanced at the tengu archer who flew a few hundred meters higher than him using her wings and spoke in a solemn voice as he gave his new battle strategy a name…

“The early bird catches the worm.”
