Dissonance.
Cain and his assailant locked eyes...
Both seemed to stare death in the face as without hesitation, they chose to jump back at the same time.
'Bastard!'
Although he had baited the coward out, Cain had to admit that his speed was something else. If he wasn't expecting him, his head would have been sent flying.
'No wonder...' The more Cain thought about it, the more he got infuriated. Not the kind of fury where one lost themselves in mindless anger.
No, it was a more subtle, yet fierce type of fury...
His two visual skills were atovated, causing him to see the world completely different. Any human that stared into his strange eyes would be instantly overcome with a crippling fear. His eyes didn't belong to a normal human.
The man who attacked from the shadows seemed to sense this as he leapt back again, causing Cain to frown.
