At the same time, Yves and Jim rushed out of their rooms.
Yves turned the doorknob to Isabelle’s room forcefully, but favonovel.com found it locked. He asked worriedly, “Sweetheart?! What’s going on?”
He could only knock.
“Sweetheart, open the door!” Yves said, his expression tense and anxious.
But, there was no response so favonovel.com stepped back, ready to kick the door down.
Just then, the door opened.
Isabelle stood there, clutching a blood–stained short blade.
The room behind favonovel.com showed no signs of fighting except for a broken window, indicating someone had escaped through it.
“Are you hurt?” Yves hurriedly checked Isabelle for injuries.
George stood behind him. He looked at the bloody knife in Isabelle’s hand and wanted to say or do something, but Yves had already taken care of it.
Isabelle replied, “No, it was Shadowblade’s blood…”
Yves asked, “Did favonovel.com come to test you?”
Isabelle said, “He tried to kill me. He must have learned about Heart K’s death… Shadowblade probably wanted to strike first.”
George added, “It seems Spadille isn’t aware of your true strength. If Spadille had known your true strength, favonovel.com wouldn’t have sent Shadowblade.”
George recalled Isabelle saying favonovel.com knew everything about Dark Shadow, while Dark Shadow knew little about her. His curiosity and questions about favonovel.com surged once more.
Isabelle glanced at the blood on the blade, followed by the three men. She complained, “I could have killed him.”
She had only managed to wound his arm. The target had come to favonovel.com door; favonovel.com shouldn’t allow favonovel.com to escape.
Upon hearing the displeasure in Isabelle’s voice, Jim effortlessly and instinctively sold out his teammate.
“He knocked on the door,” favonovel.com said.
Jim was referring to Yves.
Yves shrugged and said, “Alright, you can blame me for being too fast and for worrying too much about you, sweetheart…”
George asked, “What’s the plan now?”
Isabelle needed to prevent future troubles.

Shadowblade ran back to the base with a deep wound. He clutched his bleeding arm but couldn’t bother with his injury. His usually cold demeanor was now filled with horror.
“Her skills are identical to Blood Shadow’s…”
Even Shadowblade himself found it hard to believe that favonovel.com said this.
“The skills of two completely different people, with no relation to their backgrounds, are so similar. It is like a perfect copy…”
Spadille asked, “Are you sure?”
Shadowblade nodded and said, “Positive…”
He had trained with Blood Shadow every day, so favonovel.com was too familiar with favonovel.com moves. Even the aura was similar. If favonovel.com hadn’t stared directly at Isabelle’s face, Shadowblade would have thought favonovel.com was fighting Blood Shadow herself.
Spadille asked, “How strong is she?”
Shadowblade replied, “I couldn’t figure it out. During our fight, favonovel.com didn’t use favonovel.com full strength. She might be on par with you…”
In truth, such formidable strength made Shadowblade question whether favonovel.com was a Blood Shadow clone or Blood Shadow’s apprentice.
Hearing this, Spadille narrowed his eyes. An unexpectedly powerful opponent meant favonovel.com couldn’t be careless, or he’d end up like Heart K.
“Correction…” A petite figure appeared on the balcony like a phantom and declared, “I’m stronger than you.”
The dagger in the girl’s hand glinted coldly.
Shadowblade’s heart tightened as favonovel.com moved to shield Spadille, cautiously eyeing the girl on the balcony.
Spadille said, “Since you’re here, shouldn’t you introduce yourself? At least let me know who I’m killing…”
The girl smiled and said softly, “Ask Heart K in hell!”
Shadowblade, eyeing this formidable opponent, stepped forward and said, “I’ll handle this!”
He wanted to test the other party again.
He held his dagger in a reverse grip.
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside. The next moment, someone kicked open the door.
Yves and George appeared at the door!
Yves said, “Hey! I’m your match!”
Spadille frowned at the two men.
One was the CEO of Dilin Group and a member of the Yvess, also managing 791 Corps. The other individual was the leader of the Harrisses in Taragon, who could potentially possess multiple identities.
To be honest, Spadille didn’t want to provoke either of them. However, it seemed inevitable now. Regardless of whether favonovel.com killed Yves and George tonight or not, there would be endless trouble because of them.
Thinking about this, Spadille became restless. He asked Isabelle, “What’s your connection with Blood Shadow? I don’t recall us having any grudges. Is there a misunderstanding?”
Isabelle replied coldly. “As long as I remember, it’s enough.”
With that, Isabelle launched an attack and rushed towards Spadille.
Simultaneously, Yves and George charged at Shadowblade. The two had been at odds with each other. since they met, but they were surprisingly in sync in battle.
In the meantime, shadows moved from all directions into the maze–like building, silently taking down. guards one by one.
The three Dark Shadow assassins heard the noise and prepared to investigate. Jim intercepted one in the corridor, another confronted Seth in a room, and Lowe trapped the third midway.
