The Cold-Blooded Sword Expert
It will be a bad memory

“Dad!”

“Ariana, take Leo away from this place!”

“How about you!?”

A woman was so hysterical that a husband stood behind her with cuts. Especially in front of her husband, some people in Assassin robes were standing, holding swords tightly and preparing to kill the man before her.

Of course it is a bad sight for a small child, a child who has white hair and blue eyes that continues to shout, calling his father to immediately run away from a place like this.

With no reply from Vernal, he continued to hold on tightly to the sharp sword to prepare against the assassins who seemed to be eyeing his entire family to be killed just like that. For no apparent reason, why did he and his family want to be killed?

But clearly, Vernal immediately jumped on the spot, moving towards the assassins with Water magic to attack them.

Ariana immediately covered the face of Leo who rebelled and wanted to help his father. But what power? He was just a 5-year-old boy. His ability can only shout to vent emotions in his mother's arms.

Cold sweat filled Ariana's face, she tried to cover Leo's face and his son's ears at once so as not to hear the screams of pain from his father. Ariana was just crying, her tears were flowing and did not dare to look back, all she had to do was run out of the house to save herself and her only child.

Shocked and almost paralyzed, when suddenly the Assassin was in front of him while slashing a sword towards his neck. His eyes opened wide as he looked at the body that was still standing and carrying his son, before it turned out that he was aware that his head was rolling and his consciousness was slowly disappearing.

“Defend for hi-“

Ariana was unable to give the last message to the crying child. He did not know what happened after that because the last breath, he had let out.

Leo fell on the floor, his body instantly frozen as he opened his eyes a terrifying look. His mother was beheaded nearby with her head rolling, and the blood that poured out on the floor became a pool of blood.

He could not scream as if suffocating, looking at the figure that killed his mother in fear.

The Assassin looked at Leo very coldly behind his hood, he crouched down and was about to take Leo away.

Leo slowly retreated by dragging his body, his clothes became dirty and turned red due to the pooling blood. His heart could not be controlled, moreover he felt that between life and death was filled with a sense of difficulty.

Who is not hysterical when he sees a mother cut off next to him? Little Leo actually wanted to scream and cry. But he was in trouble because it was as if death wanted to strangle him.

His blood was boiling over his head, his body was like it was very heavy. Especially when the Assassin was moving towards him as if he wanted to obtain it. His mind was as chaotic as it happened he would be slowly killed or made into a slave.

Such an urgent state, Leo clasped tightly onto his hand, he gritted his teeth quite tightly. His body was like flowing an extremely foreign energy within him, like he had just sensed it for the first time.

Who would have thought, in Leo's shadow, a shadow tiger appeared, moving and leaping towards the Assassin as if it was about to pounce on him.

The Assassin opened his eyes wide, who would have thought that a five-year-old was already capable of casting a unique non-elemental magic that was a shadow?

Only, it was too weak in front of an Assassin who was in front of Leo. So that in a single slash, without unleashing a single talent, the shadow tiger disappeared very easily.

Seriously! it was just a diversion. The shadow tiger in black made a diversion of view for the assassin. That made the Assassin himself only able to smile himself.

“Where is the boy, I hope you've got him.”

Another Assassin came over asking so, looking at the Assassin who had just killed Ariana with such a cynical look. How not? After he asked about the whereabouts of the child, the Assassin did not see any small children in the other Assassin's arms.

“She has run.”

Chaos is so terrible. When the figure of the killer made the family of the little boy lie on a pool of blood. Pretty cruel, really! Moreover, for the sake of removing the traces, the assassins ignited flames on a residence to leave a trace as small as a thumb.

The thing is, it's the most heinous thing. Leaving a child who may have recently been able to wash************self after urinating. Sitting in the closet, hugging her legs.

Leo had a little peek, it had been a few minutes he had been hiding in the closet after he had distracted an assassin using his strange ability. Well, he did as if subconsciously, even he himself was quite surprised as he was able to move as fast as a shadow after taking out such a shadow beast.

He still covered his mouth using his hands, trying his best not to make a sound, as what he feared was that the killer was still wandering around. His sweat was pouring, his heart was pounding, he didn't know what to do.

There's no way he's waiting for people to help, it's been the night no one heard the screams of the murdered, surely so!

A few seconds later, a blaze grabbed the entire house, making Leo immediately blinked in surprise that the entire house was experiencing a fire.

There was no other way, he had been trapped inside the closet. If it's been burned like this, it means that some of the killers have left.

A blade of wind appeared, as if splitting the flames. It was precisely not that the fire was enlarged, the wind pressure was too high that made the fire instantly extinguish.

Though it should be, wind is the element that is above the increase of fire. The fire will grow when there is wind. The law of nature says that the greatest weakness of the wind is fire itself. So it is not so surprising and a normal sight when the fire will be dangerous when strong wind gusts are around.

A middle-aged man heaved a sigh of relief. He appears like a nighttime hero to help Leo. The sword in his tightly clasped grasp was also in a vertically slashing position.

Leo's fear is becoming more and more. He had previously tried to calm down, but he was really very scared when he looked at the sword-bearer.

Not without reason, he was still traumatized. His family was killed by using a sword, more precisely a man who uses a hood like an assassin carrying a sword. Which one, Leo himself did not understand, what was the fault of his family?

“No need to fear.” The middle-aged man let out a soft voice, which then put the sword in his sleeve to open the closet and take Leo away. Capturing Leo to protect such a small child from the embers that make the skin blister.

“You're safe now, the killer is gone.”

Especially the origins are not so clear. The middle-aged man who was a swordsman appeared suddenly, immediately knowing the existence of Leo who was in the closet. So it is no wonder why Leo himself is also increasingly becoming-so in his fear, even though Leo is in the arms of the man.

Can only surrender.

“Although he was filled with fear, but he was still trying to calm down.” The middle-aged man's inner self while leaving.

Then, he sighed before continuing his words. “This child is very interesting. And I can see the potential of his talent in becoming a swordsman, maybe?” He said as he maneuvered on a tree branch, or rather jumped from tree to tree. He turned his back on a residence that was getting smaller because the old man was getting further away.

"The mess in Blood Angel still hasn't stopped. There's no way I'm bringing him back first."

A residence devoured by fire, with people who were very panicked for trying to extinguish it. Moreover, they know exactly, the residence contains a family that may have died without realizing the house was a fire.

Might? But what they think is wrong! The residence became a target of brutal murder by assassins without identity, without cause and left after igniting a fire without leaving a trace.

And that middle-aged man actually did the same. When the residence was besieged by people on the verge of panic, the middle-aged old man left secretly while clutching Leo who did not know any outside circumstances, but rather did not, maybe only a sound is the worst memory.

Moreover, his heart would probably be really very sensitive. Losing someone nearby, is not something like turning the palm of the hand, especially at a very young age like him. Moreover, Leo in the arms of the middle-aged man, in fact he cried bitterly, because given it all and given a second chance to live.

Even so, the middle-aged man still smiled. In front of him was a little boy who had a major trauma.
