"Lynn, I'm going back to my room to sleep first."
John hung the towel he had wiped his hands on on the shelf, poked his head out of the bathroom, and said hello to Lynn who was sitting on the sofa.
The boy's expression was no different from usual, he still had the same kind of well-behaved smile with a hint of expectation and praise.
"Go, good night. Remember to close the windows, it's a bit windy tonight."
Lynn turned over a page of the book and gave an instruction without raising his head.
"Got it."
John turned around and walked into his bedroom, closing the door behind him.
But in this closed room, he did not go to the soft big bed, but went straight to the floor-to-ceiling window.
The smile on the boy's face completely disappeared the moment he closed the door, and cold sea water filled Azure's eyes.
He stretched out his hand and pushed open a window gap without making any sound.
The next second, a breeze blew by, and John's figure had disappeared from the bedroom out of thin air.
On the Lawn outside the Manor, six Shadow Corps ninjas wrapped in black night clothes were approaching the villa Silencio with the help of the night and the shadow of the oak tree.
They are the most elite killers in the Genji Clan. Each of them is proficient in stealth and assassination, and even their breathing is suppressed to the lowest frequency.
The leader Jōnin made a gesture to signal the team to stop.
He raised his head and saw a black origami crow in the night sky, swinging in the wind towards the window on the second floor of the villa.
That is Death Crows Killing Curse released by Elder. As long as Paper Crow is close to the target, the curse will instantly invade the opponent's spirit.
They were waiting for painful screams to come from the villa, or for the sound of crazy things being smashed.
That was the signal for them to break in through the window and cut off the target's head.
"You trampled on Lynn Lawn, which was just watered yesterday."
A clear boy's voice sounded behind the six ninjas without warning.
The sound was not loud, but in the quiet night it was like a heavy hammer hitting their eardrums.
The leader Jōnin's hair stood on end, he didn't even notice anyone approaching!
Without any hesitation, Jōnin turned around suddenly, and the fine steel Ninja Sword from his waist was instantly unsheathed, bringing out a cold light and striking straight at the source of the sound.
This is a hard-earned instinctive reaction.
However, the expected feeling of the blade cutting through flesh and blood did not come.
John stood quietly on the grass, still wearing the home clothes with cartoon patterns on it.
He didn't even move a step, he just raised his right hand casually and stretched out two white fingers.
There is a crisp sound of "dang".
The fine steel Ninja Sword, which was strong enough to split bulletproof glass, was firmly held between John's fingers.
The huge repulsive force caused Jōnin's jaw to tear open instantly, and blood poured out.
John didn't give the other party any time to react.
His fingers exerted slight force, and with a click, the hard blade broke easily like a biscuit.
The boy conveniently held the half-cut blade between his hands and gently pushed it forward at a speed that could not be caught by the naked eye.
There are no flashy moves or deafening explosions.
The broken blade accurately pierced Jōnin's heart without even a drop of excess blood spilling out.
For John, who possesses super strength and speed, killing does not require making any big noise.
He didn't want to use Heat Vision, because it would emit a dazzling red light and a huge roar, which would disturb Lynn who was reading a book in the living room.
When the remaining five ninjas saw this scene, their eyes finally showed a look of fear.
The Ninjutsu and stealth they were so proud of were like a ridiculous juggling act in front of this eight-year-old boy.
They were about to disperse their formation when John's figure turned into an invisible residual wind.
The boy shuttled among these men in black with clean and neat movements.
He smashed his sternum with one punch and broke his neck with his hand.
The whole process lasted less than three seconds, and five more twisted corpses appeared on Lawn.
John stood there, shaking off the dust on his hands, but still frowning slightly.
He raised his head and looked towards the second floor of the villa.
Although these people were dealt with, his attention was distracted for a moment. The strange Paper Crow had already entered the living room of the villa along the half-open ventilation fan shutters.
In the living room, Lynn is looking down at the book in his hand.
The temperature in the room suddenly dropped a lot without warning, and the originally bright, warm-toned wall lamps began to flicker.
Golden Retriever Buddy seemed to sense some danger, stood up from the carpet uneasily, and let out a low whimper into the air.
Lynn closed the book and raised his head.
A completely black Paper Crow with a rancid smell was parked on the edge of the coffee table.
Its eyes dotted with cinnabar seemed to emit a faint green light, staring at Lynn.
Suddenly, the crow twitched slightly, as if something was wrong.
The target given to it by the director is obviously a Biological Force Field extremely powerful guy, but this man in front of it...
A bit weak.
But just now, at a quick glance, there was just a little boy outside who looked frail.
So, its single-core processor burned.
Lynn has a question mark: What do you mean, this bird is in heat? It keeps shaking.
Immediately he understood and calmly looked at this uninvited guest.
Paper Crow After a few seconds of pause, it suddenly let out a shrill scream.
Immediately afterwards, the entire Paper Crow exploded in mid-air and turned into a thick black mist. A twisted and ferocious skull vaguely emerged from the mist, opening its big mouth and pounced directly towards Lynn's face.
This is Onmyōji, the most vicious Killing Curse. As long as ordinary people get a little bit of it, their spirits will collapse instantly.
But Lynn is not an ordinary person.
The moment the Yasakani Blood Jade he pressed against his chest felt the cold air, a strong burning sensation erupted.
A pure and domineering power instantly spread throughout Lynn's limbs and bones.
Lynn did not dodge or step back.
He just calmly picked up a heavy metal pen next to the book.
At the moment when the black mist was about to touch the tip of his nose, Lynn's wrist suddenly exerted force.
There are no unnecessary fancy moves, pure power combined with the terrifying explosive power given by Blood Jade, instantly transforming this ordinary metal pen into a Silver Lightning that tears the air.
There was a soft sound of "Pfft".
The pen accurately penetrated the core of the black mist, and nailed the core Talisman Paper, which was filled with spells, to the solid wood wall behind it.
The shrill screams suddenly stopped.
The seemingly terrifying black mist was like the lingering snow caught in the scorching sun. It rolled violently in the air a few times and dissipated without a trace in an instant. Only the Talisman Paper nailed by the pen was left, which was rapidly turning yellow and withering.
At this moment, the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room was pushed open from the outside.
John rushed in with a nervous ninja holding a still breathing ninja in his hand.
After killing the killer outside just now, he deliberately left himself alive, but he was still thinking about the strange crow that flew in.
When he saw Talisman Paper nailed to the wall and turning to ashes, and Lynn sitting on the sofa safe and sound, the boy's tense shoulders relaxed.
"Lynn, are you okay?" John threw the half-dead ninja in his hand on the carpet and walked quickly to the sofa.
Lynn looked at the man in black on the carpet wearing night clothes, then looked at the pen on the wall, and sighed helplessly.
"I'm fine, but it looks like we won't be able to go to bed early tonight."
Lynn stood up and patted John on the shoulder, "Go to the bathroom and get a basin of cold water to splash this guy awake. We have to ask him who is the guest who came to destroy us Lawn in the middle of the night."
