Chapter 125
The sniping caused the car to drift out of control as the car screeched from the sudden braking . The noise echoed throughout the dark rain .
“Ah—!”
The driver wasn’t prepared for this sudden attack . He used all his skills to keep the car from hitting obstacles as he turned the steering wheel . He was also crying and yelling in panic .
Seitenshi buried her head in Noah’s chest . She couldn’t handle this as evidenced by her anguished look .
Noah was the only one who had a leveled head under this desperate situation . He hugged Seitenshi with one arm and he grabbed the driver with his other arm .
Noah got into a stance and he kicked the limousine’s roof .
Bam
The roof immediately gave away as he made a huge hole in the limousine .
Fwip
A figure dashed out from within the car .
The limousine hit a hard wall and the front of the limousine immediately became a lost cause, parts and metal sc.r.a.ps scattered everywhere .
Boom
The limousine then exploded into a molten mess of chemical fire and metal shrapnel .
Screech
The other escort cars stopped and Yasuwaki Takuto’s bodyguard corps rushed towards the explosion scene while screaming like unprofessional bodyguards .
Noah landed with both Seitenshi and the fainted driver in his arms . He landed gracefully although he is already drenched from the heavy rain .
Noah looked at the building that had a red flash just a short while ago .
Combining the sniping attack and the weird red flash just a brief moment before the attack actually landed, it was highly probable that someone sniped at them from that building .
The a.s.sa.s.sin that tried to snipe Seitenshi is probably still in that building!
He saw another flash of light as his superhuman senses kicked up .
Swish
He took out his gun and he fired without hesitation, he acquired his target in no time at all and he fired when he saw the shot .
Bang
His black bullet flew at supersonic speed as it charged straight for the building .
En route, the trajectory of the bullet met with the sniper rifle bullet coming from the tall building .
The two bullets collided in the air .
Tang
Statistically, this impossible shot is so unlikely it should have been impossible given the circ.u.mstances . Yet, Noah did just that as the two bullets deflected each other away .
“You’ve got to be kidding me . ”
With an Anti-tank sniper rifle gun in her hands, the young cursed child’s burning red eyes shook with shock .
She was well over 1 km away from them .
Her sniping skill is obviously very polished as she can confidently hit a target over 1 km away .
This is why her handler treated her with such importance .
The young lady a.s.sumed that she was the only one in this world who can pull off something like this .
However, the scene she saw caused her to revise her a.s.sumptions .
Moreover, from what she saw, her opponent outcla.s.sed her .
He spotted her from a kilometer away, with little preparations available, he fired a shot that targeted not her, but the bullet she fired . He thwarted her attack with apparent ease .
This isn’t on the level of 100% accuracy, this is just an inhuman level of skill .
Bang
While she was temporarily stunned, her enhanced visual and auditory senses picked up on the tell-tale signs of a gunshot . Normally, a human would have been shot just like that .
A gunfire!
An alarm went off inside her, feeling a threat to her life, she moved her head away without hesitation .
The shot obliterated her sniper scope, her eye would have been done in the same way if she didn’t move in time just now .
The sniper scope exploded into fragments of plastic, metal, and alloy .
The ensuing force also blew the sniper rifle away from her hands . It was a shot that rivaled her sniper fire in firepower .
She had proper control over her sniper control as well . In the end, she got sent into a tumble because of this attack .
“Ugh…”
Groaning, she used her trembling hands to grab her sniper rifle and she charged straight for the exit . She took the stairs .
Bang Bang Bang Bang
Four more devastating bullets landed behind her, blowing four impressive holes in the wall near her .
Had she delayed her escape, the four bullets would have perforated her .
“Hah… Hah… Hah…”
Wheezing from the pressure and stress, she tried to steady her breathing . Her back was already drenched from sweat, it didn’t help that her panic and sense of crisis gripped her when she was running for the stairs .
Her red eyes are still shaking with sh.e.l.l shock . She trembled while hugging the sniper rifle in her arms . She looked at the four holes that narrowly missed her and she hugged her rifle tighter .
“What a scary person…”
At the same time, Noah who used his exceptional senses to first block, then disarm, and then pursue the a.s.sa.s.sin, emptied all 6 bullets in his gun before he stopped .
He slowly opened his eyes and he squinted his eyes at the tall building in a distance .
“That aura, that was definitely a cursed child . ”
Because he was too far away, he didn’t immediately identify the a.s.sa.s.sin as a cursed child .
After he picked up on the fluctuations in the environment caused by a cursed child using her Gastrea power, he finally identified the a.s.sailant as a cursed child .
No doubt it, that was a cursed child!
“Seitenshi-sama—!”
Yasuwaki Takuto and his retinue finally arrived near Noah .
Seitenshi is still shaking from fear, she grabbed Noah’s shirt with a pale face .
Noah patted her back and he placed his remaining hand on her smooth glistening shoulder . He removed her from his chest and he looked into her eyes .
“It’s okay now, don’t be afraid . ”
“N-n…”
Seitenshi nodded but her mind is still out of it .
She exhausted her mental energy with the attack just now .
“Noah Dreyar!”
Yasuwaki cried out in shock when he saw Noah holding a weakened Seitenshi in his embrace .
“Unhand Seitenshi-sama at once!”
Noah ignored Yasuwaki . He continued patting Seitenshi until she calmed down .
Yasuwaki Takuto was yelling and screeching in jealousy and rage for quite some time after this .
