Chapter 163: Alex vs Aurelia, Assassin Battle

The night was heavy with anticipation as Alex stood still, his black dagger glinting faintly in the starlight.

His calm demeanor contrasted sharply with Aurelia's coiled intensity.

She gripped her twin daggers tightly, her breathing steady.

"If you manage to hit me even once," Alex declared, "then I'll kill myself, making it your victory."

Aurelia's eyes narrowed, her grip tightening on the [Return Twin Daggers].

Sparks of determination flared in her gaze, but she couldn't ignore the chill in Alex's smile, a confidence that spoke of absolute control.

"Let's see if you can keep that promise," she muttered under her breath before vanishing into the shadows.

Aurelia appeared behind Alex in a flash of shadow, her [Shadow Blink] ability propelling her forward.

Her twin daggers aimed for his back with precise, lightning-fast strikes.

CLANG!
