There were seven assassins in total.
No, to be more precise, there were seven surrounding Ronin's exclusive viewing platform. Ronin didn't know how many more assassins remained hidden in the dense fog.
Their plan was seamless—
Three Knights, led by a Bronze Knight, would hold back Missy, while two Advanced Level Knights would trap Macken. The last two would assassinate Blanche and Ronin respectively.
From the brief exchange just now, Ronin judged that the two assassins targeting him and Blanche were also likely of Advanced Level strength.
Coupled with the Wind Blade Magic that shot through the dense fog, this assassination attempt was quite the grand affair.
"Finish them quickly!"
The Clear Wind Skill blew away the surrounding fog, exposing them and catching them by surprise for a moment.
However, they were all well-trained killers. They reacted almost instantly, intending to end the assassination even more swiftly.
"Be careful."
