Chapter 1032 Trifling Skill!
"Dan'er, do you think that assassin can kill Hao Jian?"
In the hotel's presidential suite, Madison looked at a pale, slender man beside him. Upon close inspection, it was clear this man might not even be thirty years old.
However, the aura emanating from this person was akin to that of someone in their forties, which was rather strange.
"Sir, that assassin is ranked third in the world, more than capable of killing Hao Jian!"
Dan'er's voice was somewhat deep, with a faint sense of oppression, seemingly due to a lack of control, causing some of his aura to leak out.
But Madison was already accustomed to this; his subordinate was good in every way, except his way of speaking and sickly appearance weren't ideal.
Still, Madison didn't mind as long as his strength was formidable enough.
Speaking of Dan'er's strength, it's probably even a bit stronger than Muramasa. Although he didn't have a global ranking, his strength was undeniable, or Madison wouldn't have hired him as a bodyguard.
After all, people of his status had plenty of eyes on them, people who wanted his life. Without sufficient strength to protect himself, he'd likely die in his sleep without even realizing it.
Not only was Dan'er the bodyguard he hired, but he was also Madison's personal attendant. Wherever Madison was, Dan'er would be there too. During auctions, Dan'er would be in the shadows, secretly protecting Madison, but unfortunately, Hao Jian didn't notice this.
"With your assurance, I feel much more at ease. Not letting you make a move this time is also for safety reasons." Nodding, Madison trusted Dan'er's judgment and, after pondering, said, "After all, this is Huaxia, and we are outsiders..."
"If anything goes wrong and we are exposed, getting back to our country won't be a simple task. But this is also a fine solution; just spending some money to handle Hao Jian makes it quite a good deal."
Just as Madison finished speaking, Dan'er's eyes suddenly focused, swiftly grabbing a table to shield Madison and, with a wave of both hands, conjured two twenty-centimeter-long daggers, their gleaming coldness indicating their sharpness.
"Sir, someone's here, be careful!"
In just a few words, Madison's face darkened suddenly.
"Can you handle it?!"
"Yes!"
After saying this, Dan'er's eyes suddenly filled with a bloodthirsty glow, he licked his lips and sneered, "It's been a while since anyone dared to make a move in front of me!"
"This time, I want to see which little cockroach sneaked in!"
"Screw you, you damn white ghost! I'm Muramasa Kazushi, remember your grandfather's name well!" After suffering defeat at Hao Jian's hands, Muramasa Kazushi was enraged to be looked down upon by this little face while just here to kill someone.
He couldn't stand against Hao Jian; admitting defeat and humility were normal. Anyone else would do the same, but now?
This Dan'er, whom he had never even met, dared to be arrogant in front of him?! Ignoring his faint killing intent and his frail appearance, one could see this guy was innately calcium-deficient!
"In the presence of the master, you cannot act recklessly!"
Muramasa's insult didn't provoke Dan'er's anger; his eyes didn't even ripple, as if he hadn't heard it at all.
Seeing this, Muramasa's expression suddenly became serious; this guy wouldn't be easy to deal with!
After half an hour of rapid movement, amidst life and death decisions, Muramasa reached Madison's place. After resting for half an hour, he cautiously observed Madison's security situation, finding that besides the bodyguards at the door, there was no one else.
Seeing this, Muramasa's first reaction was to breathe a sigh of relief. Those bodyguards were just small fry in his eyes, easily dealt with.
But as he slipped through the window, just as his feet touched the ground, this little face found his position, his face changed drastically.
He's the third-ranked assassin! When did he start getting discovered twice during a mission?! And on the same day!
He didn't even want to mention Hao Jian; that one was a monster on a completely different level, but how could this little face also know his position?!
At that moment, he really wanted to grab Madison and ask, "If you have such a subordinate, why would you still need to hire me?!"
Then he wouldn't have encountered Hao Jian and been forced to swallow that pill! Hao Jian's pill, one that the entire assassin world likely couldn't find an antidote for...
"Come on!"
Muramasa's face abruptly focused, he stomped the ground fiercely, moving sideways a bit, and just as he moved, a long leg appeared where he had originally stood, seemingly out of nowhere.
"Boom!"
The moment his foot touched the ground, Muramasa could clearly sense the tremor in the earth. His expression turned horrified; this guy looked frail, yet his power was terrifyingly immense. Could this guy's body be made of a dragon?!
At this point, Muramasa couldn't afford to think too much. He pressed against the ground with both feet, his figure suddenly shooting out like an arrow. The long blade in his hand was already unsheathed, stabbing straight at Dan'er!
"There is a four-character saying in the Huaxia language that goes..."
"Trifling Skill!"
Looking at the figure charging toward him, Dan'er remained impassive, sneering coldly. His body vibrated slightly, ready to react correctly to any situation that occurred in an instant!
"Damn it! It's one thing for the God of Death to look down on me, since I can't beat him, but you, kid, have no right!" Muramasa's inner voice roared with rage, his expression turning uglier. Just as he was a meter away from Dan'er, the power surged within him, and his figure bizarrely veered to the left!
Immediately following, an incredible phenomenon occurred. Suddenly, from Muramasa's original position, another Muramasa split off, and then this new existence split again!
After several such splits, there were now a total of eight Muramasas, each wielding a knife, stabbing toward Dan'er from various tricky angles. This move was Muramasa's true killing blow!
With this move, countless people had perished under his blade. He had previously planned to use this move against Hao Jian, but at that time, he had no opportunity left!
But now, facing this opponent, Muramasa unleashed his full power!
"Trifling Skill..."
Dan'er's expression remained unchanged, his pale face devoid of color, but the brilliance in his eyes grew even brighter. A cold smile played at his lips, his lowered arms suddenly shot up at a speed like a lightning flash!
Then, in a blink, he lashed out, squatting down and sweeping his legs horizontally, directly kicking the nearest Muramasa. Yet the sensation under his foot felt like he was kicking air.
And the final result confirmed his feeling: the Muramasa he kicked disintegrated into a puff of white smoke the moment it was struck. Seeing this, Dan'er's eyes sparkled.
With a slight tap on the ground with his toes, his outstretched hand swiftly changed direction, moving even faster to appear before one of the Muramasas.
With one grab, what he held was no longer the sensation of thin air, but rather something tangible!
"How... how did you discover it?!"
With Muramasa captured, the other six clones suddenly evaporated into smoke, vanishing into thin air. His face flushed red, he appeared pained, and his eyes held disbelief.
This move of his had never been broken by anyone before, and it was precisely because of this technique that he was invincible in various missions. This move partly contributed to him being ranked third in the Assassin World!
"I can feel that these clones of yours lack thoughts, they're just empty shells. Although their expressions are really lifelike, compared to a real person, they're missing something."
"And it was only when I kicked away one clone that I noticed this situation. Such a simple trick, I could learn it too..."
As he spoke, Dan'er's gaze suddenly sharpened, his body trembled violently. Then it was seen that beside him, a figure identical to him emerged.
This figure, whether in appearance or expression, was no different from a real person! Even more lifelike than Muramasa's!
"The fewer clones you have for this move, the better. If you had three clones at this level, I might have long since fallen to your blade!"
Dan'er's eyes were indifferent, and with a casual wave, he dispersed the clone. His eyes showed no emotion, as if he were stating something very ordinary.
But for Muramasa, watching such an unbelievable thing happening was overwhelming!
With his strength, learning this move had cost him untold suffering. In order to master this move, he had purposely gone to the Arctic, where only the cold could fully unlock his potential!
But today? He watched helplessly as his painstakingly practiced technique was seen through by this pretty boy in one glance, and even learned in the blink of an eye!
This was something he couldn't imagine and didn't dare to believe!
"Sir, how do you intend to deal with this person?"
However, Dan'er paid no attention to Muramasa's expression. Instead, he turned his head to the sofa where Madison sat, inquiring softly.
"Change his clothes and throw him out of the building, but make sure to cover the trail. I dislike trouble."
"As you wish..."
With that, Dan'er grabbed the despair-stricken Muramasa and left the presidential suite...
