章 321: Assassination [5]

"Ahh~ this is supposed to be an assassination mission, but I really can't bring myself to finish it so quickly."

A soundless mutter exited the mouth of a beautiful black-haired woman who was perched on a large tree within the forest. In her line of sight, a burly demon angrily marched forward, trying to find traces of her existence.

"Dammit! Get down here and fight me, woman!" He roared into the night sky.

Proto was already thoroughly enraged. It had been many minutes since he entered the forest, but he had yet to make contact with anyone else. Even Nali was no longer by his side. 

If it was just that, he wouldn't have been so enraged. The problem was that every few minutes, he'd sense mana fluctuations not far away from him, signaling that someone was nearby. Every time he reaches the point where the fluctuations originated from, though, he'd be met with empty air.
