Frozen Kingdom

The expedition group was scattered in different parts of the kingdom as per Shin's instructions, trying to locate most of the members of Pandemonium Descendants.

They were trying their best to avoid conflict and engage in a fight since they needed to know their goal first before making their move.

Unfortunately, the Sweepers would immediately attack them, forcing them to do nothing but retaliate. They already tried to communicate multiple times but the other side was unwilling to listen to them.

Due to this, the initial plan was instantly scrapped, forcing them to fight the Sweepers nonstop. Since the situation already became like that, the group fought for real. They were no longer holding back and went all out.

They were also capturing squad leaders from time to time using the prison prisms. For Corrupted and Demonic Players, being captured was much more terrifying than getting killed.

After all, they could just lose a level when they died, or five to ten levels at most depending on the curses that were cast on them.

Shin, Faker, Zero, Lawless, and Leonard were still moving alone as they swept through the entire region, looking for their targets.

The main group, on the other hand, finally met Owen and Chaotic Luck, increasing their efficiency to a great degree.

Shin was moving alone, scouting the area that was assigned to him and looking for targets.

He already caught quite a lot of squad leaders and all of them seemed to have a decent position within the Pandemonium, so he no longer needed to capture more. That was unless he didn't encounter someone who had a higher position than those guys.

He was moving at an extreme speed but he was not leaving any mark on his path. His body seemed to be weightless while he was moving. He looked like a feather being swept by the wind.

Ever since their first battle in this land where Shin regained his familiarity with his real assassination techniques, his movements became more and more polished. Especially when he applied these techniques to swordsmanship.

Due to this, his assassination skills and swordsmanship seemed to fuse together, creating a new form and polishing his style.

He also started to see the Yin-Yang Arts and Swordsmanship that Professor Plum passed to him in a new light. A lot of things became clear to him, which also make him more familiar with the so-called Yin Style of the particular Martial Art.

Right now, he fused the 'Mystic Movements' that were gradually increasing his speed the more he moved and the 'Silent Movement' of his assassination techniques that was making his weight lighter due to his extremely fast movement while also erasing his presence at the same time.

The others might even mistake him for a gust of the wind if they encountered him right now.

While he was scouting the area, he suddenly sensed the presence of a huge group of players from a certain distance.

Focusing his senses on that area, he discovered that the battle seemed to be taking place there. That battle was most likely not that intense given that there were very few collisions with weapons, the explosions were also not that many or loud.

Based on the shout that was coming from one of the sides, their opponent completely overpowered him.

Having that minimal information, Shin could instantly guess what was happening on that side. He even had an idea who the people fighting in that place were.

"It is definitely not our people, so it can only be that person and the members of Pandemonium," muttered Shin while also wearing a smirking smile as he continued to move forward.

"It must be that guy!" He then slightly slowed his speed and further weaken his already unnoticeable presence before moving ahead.

He sneakily went past their senses and appeared on a tree branch, observing the fight in silence. This was his chance to finally saw how strong this person called 'Diablo' closely and he would not let it slip away from his hands.

And right after found a good spot, what he saw was something that couldn't be called a battle. It was nothing but a one-sided slaughter. He saw a single person turning into a moving silhouetted that killed everyone he went through.

Even with his enhanced eyesight, he couldn't get a clear look at the appearance of that person since he was moving at an extreme speed that was way faster than what he had earlier.

Shin creased his brow when he saw that. He wanted to use his True Sight ocular skill but immediately denied the idea since Zero had told him some of the abilities of Diablo as well as that person's skill level.

If he used the True Sight Skill right now to observe, the other side could sense his presence. He had no choice but to observe the battle with his naked eye. Fortunately, he was still able to vaguely see how Diablo was moving despite that being the case.

He narrowed his eyes as he looked at the battle he could see how different Diablo to the rest of the assassin players that he had met.

He was not overwhelming his opponents with his extreme speed. Instead, he was using that speed to panel more advances over his enemies. His speed was only a tool in fighting and not his main weapon.

What made Diablo amazing in Shin's eyes was his utilization of his surroundings and the situation on the battlefield.

At first look, Diablo seemed to be taking down his opponents blindly with the help of his speed. It was understandable for the opposing side and the spectators to think that way since he kept on appearing in different places on the battlefield.

For this kind of one-against-many battle, it was natural for everyone to take down the ringleader as soon as possible if running was impossible. It was foolish to fight out a situation like this in a straightforward manner unless the individual was someone who possessed absolute strength.

With Diablo's abilities, it was possible for him to slaughter all of his opponents in an orthodox way. But instead of taking it traditionally, he chose the other way around where he was taking down the players of the opposing side one after another.

Such a situation was torturing the leader of the group and the rest of the members mentally. Watching his subordinates fall in front of him one by one as he was giving out orders, the squad leader was greatly pressured.

Every time the squad leader was giving out an order, Diablo would always take down the key person for that particular command. Given his speed, it was not a problem for him to run around his opponents.

He kept appearing behind that person who was the centerpiece for the counterattack that their team leader was trying to create, crushing not only their plans but also their spirit.

After Diablo did it repeatedly, the squad leader and the rest of the group finally lost their will to fight and gave up.

Seeing that, Diablo knew that it was now time to wrap everything up. Then he started killing the group mercilessly.

Shin further raised his brows as he could see through the meaning behind Diablo's actions. "After destroying his opponents in such a crushing manner, it will not be strange for those guys to annoy him again in the future."

"Striking their cores and crushing their spirits will surely affect their mentality," he added as he shook his head with a bitter smile.

He then focused his gaze on Diablo and couldn't help but admire the guy. "This must be one of the methods that he develops after fighting such a large organization alone."

"What a terrifying enemy. He truly lives up being a former core member of the Pandemonium Descendants."

He then paused for a moment, looking at Diablo meaningfully. "I am starting to like this guy more."

His eyes were shining brightly as he thought of something. His fighting spirit and competitiveness were completely awakened after seeing Diablo fight.

"Should I test his skills personally?" he muttered as his eyes glinted.

After that, he jumped down from the branch and started walking towards Diablo who was now wrapping up the battlefield.

...

Diablo was picking up the items that were dropped by the Sweepers that he just took down when he suddenly sensed someone approaching him.

He raised his eyebrows and quickly turned in the direction where that person was coming from. Then he squinted his eyes as he found something strange in the latter.

"This guy, he is clearly a swordsman, but why can I sense different kinds of disciplines coming from him," he muttered as he further creased his brow.

He couldn't clearly see the appearance of that person because of the curtain created by the snow floating in the air. He could only see a vague silhouette walking in his direction.

He was on guard since he couldn't lock on the aura of that person, signifying that he was now facing an expert.

But since he couldn't sense any malice from the other side, he chose not to make his move and decided to wait.
