Kiling Their Way Up (4)

“Oho, that old man is funny.” Ku Jian said and disappeared from her spot. Sounds of killing could be heard from afar the next second.

“Get them!” someone roared from nowhere and they were immediately besieged.

Ignoring the coming crowd, Ed turned to Nti Anem and frowned.

“You know that old man, don’t you?” he asked.

“No, I do not.” Nti Anem quickly denied, then flicked his wrist as he whispered a spell. A barrier formed in between himself and the incoming people, then he did the same on Ed’s stairs.

“Apteil, no cheating!” the voice of the tower bellowed. But this time, it did not sound like an almighty being, it sounded like a child who had his toy taken away.

“He knows you.” Ed said, completely ignoring the carnage Ku Jian was making on her stairs.
