Getting a new replacement panther had been easy for Negi, but he couldn’t help but feel a sense of sadness at the passing of his feline partner. The Beastmaster Ldraggy would pay…Someday…But for now Negi was more interested in tracking a new target. Head_Puncher the Axe had been consistently creeping in an area Negi liked to frequent. Negi tossed his head, with his hair elegantly (he hoped) flying through the air, with the gracefulness he so loved.
Head_Puncher was too focused on his task to even bother noticing that he was being watched by not one but two enemies. As the Kobold hit the ground squealing, Head_Puncher let out a throaty sigh. There was the aegis money. He sat down in a contemplative stance, staring at the sky for reflection. It was then that a frozen missile flew in and struck him in the lower right part of his back.
Negi smirked, his hiding place still secret, as he watched the Drow Ranger, Wilsonho engage the Axe. The Drow Rangers arrogance would be his undoing. Axe would destroy him despite getting the jump. And yet…Yet the silence timing was perfect, the berserkers call held off for afew vital seconds….It would be close…
Cold fury in his eyes, Head_Puncher prepared to use his culling blade to finish Wilsonho. The moment arrived; he pulled back his blade, gurgling with determination, and was promptly silenced.
The time was ripe. Negi used his blink dagger to jump into the fray, his ultimate tearing the two combatants to bloody pieces. Head_Puncher did not even see his new assailant, so weakened was he, but Wilsonho, life ebbing away, got a fair look at his attacker.
“I’m not done yet…” Wilsonho said angrily, blood frothing from his mouth, his body self spasming from the pain. Negis eyes were pitiless however. There was no mercy in this game. Never. Ever. He sent his glaive flying, decapitating the Drow Ranger cleanly. The sudden windfall from these two kills would be more and enough to help Negi proceed in his plans.
“Stop.”
It was the Rogueknight Seels. Negi turned his mount to face the new arrival. He stood tensed, ready to run if need be…Had Seels been watching what was going on as well…? He didn’t have the mana to even blink away thanks to using his ultimate.
“What do you want?” Negi mouthed cautiously.
“Nothing…I merely wanted you to know who you face. Also that your micromanagement sucks. That is all.” And with that the Rogueknight began to casually walk away.
“What…Wha…” Said a stunned Negi. He began to fume, but then realised that he was simply being goaded. There was no way Seels could have known he was out of mana. He was simply trying to lure Negi into a place where his ultimate would useless. But…But surely Seels had SEEN him use his ultimate… Confused, he decided he would take no risks, and took the quickest path that would take him to the relative safety of the Sentinel tavern.
