No Holds Barred

Yinuo glared at the corpse, making sure that it was no longer active, before jumping down from the broken wall. She landed beside the corpse and confirmed that it was dead.

"But who did this...?"

Even with Yinuo's senses, she didn't feel anyone passing by. And with the toughness of the puppet's bodies, it was hard to believe they'd burst to pieces from dropping from a dozen meters up.

However, she could tell from a glance that it was done by someone else.

'The wounds are too clean; probably done using a sharp weapon, like a sword.'

And not the Vibration Blade, either, but a normal iron-bladed sword. The vibration causes the impacted wound to spread out, causing more damage, but the ones she could observe were clean slices, almost at a precision level.

Yinuo tried to look around, but the entire field was clean. No traces of battle could be observed. "In short, an instant death."
