Divorced and Dominant Now You Cry novel Chapter 339

Victor had been fixed as Ashton’s target. He felt a devastating, towering, murderous intent descending upon him, wrapping around him like an inescapable net. He realized, with utter dread, that fleeing was no longer an option.

“I, the Grim Reaper, the deputy head of the Legion, have come to end your life!”

Ashton effortlessly appeared before Victor as a soft breeze wafted by, blocking his path. He loomed like an executioner, regarding Victor with the absolute certainty of a man observing the deceased.

“Why did you join the Legion? You ought to know that the Legion has long been in decline! There are plenty of authorities in Casoria–not just us–that also wish to see the Legion wiped out!

“You ought to know that by becoming the deputy head of the Legion, you’ve chosen a path destined for ruin! You should have picked another-”

Victor attempted to reason with Ashton further, but a sudden, blinding icy gleam seared his vision, and he found himself engulfed in the deadly maelstrom. He erected a formidable stormwind barrier with every bit of energy he had left.

He knew he wouldn’t be able to survive this, but he hoped to buy more time for Aiden. He knew that as long as Aiden was still alive, the Assassin’s Guild would surely make its resurgence and eventually witness the destruction of the Legion.

It was then that a piercing shriek of metal ripped through the air as the frosty blade grated against Aiden’s stormwind barrier, causing an eruption of wildly brilliant sparks to shower from the point of contact.

“You won’t be able to breach my barrier so easily! I-” Victor suddenly cut himself short as his eyes flew open, registering a panic infinitely worse than before.

He watched in disbelief as his transcendent–ranked barrier burst like a bubble. The massive, crushing might of the blade deluged him like a sudden, inescapable downpour.

In that instant, a sudden, deafening sound erupted. Under the brutal, grinding pressure of the blade’s power, Victor’s entire body detonated. He was reduced to nothing but a fine, bloody mist, leaving him dead beyond any doubt.

In the end, the entire sequence–from the moment Ashton overtook Victor to the final, fatal cleaving of the blade–transpired in under a minute.

Ashton lifted his gaze, a palpable, soaring urge to kill smoldering in his gaze as he tracked the fleeing Aiden. He then mused to himself, asking, “Is another half a minute enough for him?”

That lone sentence instantly amplified Aiden’s fear, thinking that this kind of ruthless behavior utterly contradicted the Legion’s established protocols. Their new deputy head was truly a terrifying, monstrous figure.

Aiden couldn’t help but feel an overwhelming conviction that the Legion was on the cusp of rising to power once

more.

He gritted his teeth and pushed his body past its limits, his internals seizing up as he activated a secret technique to boost his speed.

Yet, within mere seconds, he froze. He lifted his head in shock and bewilderment as he realized that Ashton was already standing right before him, waiting for him. He was utterly baffled, wondering if Ashton was actually a divine being. He felt a shiver run down his spine at that thought.

“H–Have you reached the divine realm? How could that be? You don’t even carry any divine energy in you. How could you possibly possess such immense power, then?”

He had never encountered an individual as frightening as Ashton in his current realm. He was so overwhelmed with fear that he even lacked the courage to strike.

“You ought to know that it’s not because I’m powerful, but because you’re the feeble one! You should face your damnation now!” Ashton soared upward, gripping his long sword with both hands as he brought it down in a single, decisive strike.

He needed only one strike, believing that whatever miraculous power, whatever formidable technique, or whatever layered defense his opponent deployed would be rendered useless under his single, decisive blow.

In that instant, the blade’s terrifying gleam overshadowed the very sky. Its crushing, murderous intent surrounded Aiden, and that single, downward slash cleaved Aiden’s body perfectly in two. It sent his blood spraying out in a torrent.

It was then that the once–dreaded Assassin’s Guild was completely annihilated, leaving no survivors to speak of its existence.
