"Mary! Attack now!"
That was the last thing Duanmu Huai said.
The next moment, the surroundings fell into dead silence.
It wasn't that no sound was made, for you could see the thugs opening their mouths, looking as if they were roaring, each transforming into a werewolf—but they didn't make a sound, even as they growled and charged forward, and even as they were directly grabbed by the head by Duanmu Huai and smashed into the ground, the silence prevailed.
It was as if one was watching a movie playing on the television, and someone had hit the mute button.
The Silence Spell!
Indeed, this was what Duanmu Huai and Mary had discussed before coming here. An Investigator's actions must not disturb the public; thus, the best method was naturally to make no sound. Luckily, Mary, as a Bard, had learned many useful auxiliary spells, and The Silence Spell was naturally one of the most useful among them.
