The assassin gasped, faltering for a crucial instant as pain shot up his arm and his grip loosened fractionally from the combined impact and internal disruption.
That instant was all Lucian needed.
"[Mountain-Cleaving Slash]!"
He didn't need the full wind-up. He channeled the energy directly through his spear, already in contact with the assassin's defense. The golden-red crescent erupted point-blank.
SHIIIING-CRUNCH!
The energy wave, amplified by Emperor's Dominion and bypassing defenses due to Primordial Rending, slammed into the Shadow Blade's chest. His dark leather armor offered little resistance. Bones shattered, organs ruptured.
The assassin was blasted backward, hitting the rock wall with bone-jarring force, Void Whisper clattering from his numb hand. He slumped down, eyes wide with disbelief, blood pouring from his mouth and the massive wound in his chest.
[Assassin (Lv 100+) Eliminated!]
