Chapter XCI - Maniacally Laughing

Solenko unleashed a barrage of stabs as Ghost casually deflected each attack. He used the alley to his advantage as he jumped back onto the wall and leaped between each surface, creating the alleyway before slashing down against his opponent.

The highly telegraphed attack missed as Solenko rolled out of the way; Ghost's daggers clanked against the stone ground, sending sparks flying in all directions.

Solenko threw one of his daggers, but it disappeared right before it struck Ghost as he vanished and reappeared behind Ghost, catching it. Solenko went to plunge both of his daggers into Ghost's back, who barely avoided a fatal attack taking two shallow cuts across his back before spinning and sweeping the legs out from under Solenko.

Ghost quickly dropped a smokescreen as he leaped towards the nearby wall and kicked off it as he slashed his dagger through gastrocnemius muscle in one of his legs, causing Solenko to scream out in pain as he fell to one knee, unable to stand again.
