Max appeared behind Liam and he pierced his dagger forward with a terrifying velocity.
He was in Liam's blind spot and his surprise attack was fast enough to stab him once or twice before the monster of a Devil would be able to react.
At least, that was supposed to be the case.
Max was already imagining the feeling of his dagger cutting into Liam's flesh and reaping his life when the sound of metal colliding with metal rang through his ears.
His movement came to a halt all of a sudden, and he found himself unable to continue his attack.
Looking down at his blade, he found a levitating Kunai blocking the dagger with the flat side. The Arcane Kunai was vibrating and it shot at him all of a sudden as Max began to move, trying to initiate a second attack before it was too late. He tried to stab again, just to hear the sound of his dagger's blade shattering to pieces.
The Arcane Kunai pierced the dagger, breaking it easily.
