Hunting Assassins

Soon, a bit part of the forest became cloaked in a red haze, the tendrils of smoke dancing and weaving through the tall trees.

With each passing moment, Kayden's confidence grew, knowing that he was now the one who had the advantage. The number of enemies had been reduced by two, and more importantly, the rest of them were still unaware of it.

Besides, they did not know the reason why the flare had been activated, so Kayden could catch them off guard when he attacked.

However, he did not let confidence cloud his judgment, aware that he should never underestimate an enemy in a fight.

He knew that if he had fought the group of assassins in an upfront battle, it would have been anything but easy even if he was stronger than them. He understood the importance of strategy and cunning when it came to facing enemies.

Fortunately, they had believed he was going to be easier prey, therefore dividing their group into smaller ones to search for him more efficiently.
