MISSION 2: ASSASSINATING THE LEADER
SCISSOR SEVEN SHADOW DESTINY
Did you complete the mission?
No.
Then why have you returned?
I have important news.
What is it?
Someone else wants to kill our leader too.
Who?
Me.
What makes you think you can defeat me?
I know your weakness.
With the Shadow Killers gone,
no one can stop me from killing you.
Are you saying it was your plan all along
to use that boy as a decoy?
Not exactly.
So you've been waiting for this opportunity
since the day you joined the League.
That's right.
See?
Even the best-laid plans can go astray.
She's fast.
I can't read her moves.
She relays my orders, but she's not just a messenger.
None of the Shadow Killers can match her speed.
She's wearing me down, stalling for time.
But if I attack the leader now,
I may not be able to dodge her.
You're smart, I'll give you that.
But it seems you didn't think this through.
Actually,
I did.
Which is why I took the time to learn a new skill.
She may be fast,
but she lacks Qi.
She can't get past the barrier.
But keeping the barrier up drains your energy.
Do you still think
you can win this fight?
There used to be a small country in the north.
Qingyun Country.
18 years ago, the Killer League murdered the royal family for their treasure.
It was you
who carried out that mission.
But you did not expect
to run into a master swordsman in that tiny country.
You lost an arm to him.
So? I killed him with my sword.
He had a disciple.
Right before he died,
he told his disciple your weakness.
He fought with one sword, not two.
So did I, back then.
I see.
So you're here to avenge your master.
Not just him.
This is for the people of Qingyun
and my father, the king.
