"Tsk!" The assassin gritted his teeth, never expecting that he would suffer such a loss against these kids. He knew that they would be strong, but not this strong. He spun his body, using the centrifugal force to strike Ragna and Jay.
They ended up leaping back to regain so distance, but at this rate, the assassin would fall sooner or later.
When they were about to attack, lody suddenly noticed dots coming into their range.
"Reinforcent? No." lody turned around, seeing those five people. Her program scanned them and tried to recognize their faces. As soon as she saw their nas, she shouted, "Not good! Enemy's reinforcent! Jay, Ragna!"
"!!!" The group was startled as they glanced back, finding the five enemies.
"They are from the Panorama Group!" lody shouted, warning them.
Vania had warned them previously that their opponents were the Rusth family, the Drake Group, and the Panorama Group. However, she ntioned that the Panorama Group hadn't made an official decision yet, so the fact that they appeared right after the assassin was injured ant they were coming with a bad intention.
'Not good. If the Panorama Group cos…' lody bit her lips. '…If we are defeated here and can't support Clovis, the Panorama Group can take over the city by killing Kanaria's grandfather first, which is located not too far away from here.'
Kanaria shifted her aim and observed the incoming enemies. "Four of them are Tier 4, but one of them is Tier 5. Incoming!"
Kanaria shot at them, but the Tier 5 middle-aged man suddenly leaped into her trajectory, blocking all the bullets that were about to hit his people.
Jay and Ragna hurriedly turned around to block them.
A swordsman ca to Jay and struck him from the side. Jay had to defend himself as the other party was the one with the initiative.
Ragna faced the sa situation as he was suppressed by a glaive coming from above, pinning him to the ground.
The other two Tier 4 were coming while the Tier 5 was still locked on to Kanaria.
The assassin saw an opportunity. Now that Ragna and Jay's backs were exposed, he leaped toward them, ready to kill them in a single slash.
"You won't!" Erwin tried to reach him with his wires, but losing one of his legs had turned into the biggest mistake he made in this fight. He had never expected that the Panorama Group would co for them.
The assassin imdiately switched his target to Erwin. He cut all the wires and struck Erwin with all his strength.
Erwin blocked the dagger with wires between his fingers, but without both legs, he couldn't put too much force to counter his strength. As a result, the strike sent him flying.
"Not good! lody!" Erwin shouted because his real targets were not Jay or Ragna. They would definitely die with that number, so he had to eliminate the brain of this group, lody.
He used his fastest speed, not wasting this opportunity.
"Too fast." Kanaria wanted to shoot him, but the Tier 5 was simply too annoying.
"lody!" Jay and Ragna shouted.
lody's expression turned grim, knowing that she was exposed without any plans.
She raised her gun to stop him, but that was surprisingly unnecessary.
All of a sudden, two people ca to the assassin, swinging their respective weapons.
"!!!" The assassin looked shocked and was forced to block those attacks. He never thought that the Panorama Group would attack him.
In addition, the two people that engaged Jay and Ragna imdiately helped their team to take down the assassin.
It was at this mont that the assassin realized that the Panorama actually faked the attack to lower his guard for this mont.
The assassin opened his mouth, trying to warn his friend, but all of a sudden, a kick ca from below, hitting his neck.
"Gah!" The assassin spat, but the only thing he could let out was a coarse sound without any real aning.
The Tier 5 middle-aged man actually took advantage of his position that was on the side to approach the assassin from his blind spot.
'This is a trap. Their plan is to use that fake to kill as quickly as possible and turn around the situation.' The assassin's face turned pale. The two that stopped Jay and Ragna earlier had arrived. The one wielding a glaive chopped the assassin's right leg while the swordsman stabbed him in the chest.
The assassin desperately tilted his body, using the last bit of his strength to throw that knife to lody.
However, the Tier 5 middle-aged man stood in his way, blocking the dagger with a shield.
"You motherfu—" The assassin fell to the ground, spat a mouthful of blood, and ultimately died.
"!!!" lody didn't expect that the Panorama Group actually ca to help them.
The middle-aged man said, "We are from the Panorama Group. We have made our decision, which is to stand together with the city."
lody shouted, "How do we know that you're not trying to backstab us?"
lody's suspicion was justified. They made the assassin think they were on the sa side before betraying him so that they could swiftly kill him. That thod was their biggest mistake.
Because of her reply, the rest of the group pointed their weapons at the Panorama Group. As if knowing this would happen, the Panorama Group also watched each other back, planning to fight Libation Fiesta if they attacked them.
What they didn't know was that this was the Panorama Group's main plan. By causing this misunderstanding, they didn't have to spend their resources and manpower to help the city while making their stance clear. In other words, they could escape this incident unscathed.
On the other hand, lody was thinking about another problem. It was Clovis. If they didn't send reinforcent right away, Clovis might die.
lody had studied how to command the group during their trip to the wasteland, so she had to make a decision for the group.
