There had been no sign.
Both Falcon and Zaxx had been fully concentrated on the fight, keeping the old man in their sight at all times.
But one second, he was preparing to finish Zaxx off, and the next, his heart had been pierced.
It left them both stunned as Teclos casually beheaded him like some demon's spawn, ruthless and sinister, shrouded in that dark mana of his.
Zaxx fell on his ass when he saw him.
Those pitch-black, emotionless eyes...
They scared even Zaxx, and he was known as a lunatic within their organization.
Then, just as he had appeared, Teclos disappeared again, fully veiled in darkness and moving without making a sound.
Falcon landed near Zaxx and quickly gave him a potion, then turned toward Derrick and the ice knight.
"What the hell kind of kid did Derrick bring to us?" Zaxx asked nervously.
"Just be glad he's on our side..."
