Planning A Trap

"Haah…haah…hah!" Ki'Nua gasped for air as she arrived behind a house, plopping on the road as she held her neck, still feeling the slash that severed her head from her body, "Who the heck was that?"

Upon seeing that he was targeting Re'Kha, she took action immediately, thinking that he might be someone from that mysterious organisation. Since she didn't have any methods to differentiate them from the normal populace, all she could do was judge them based on their actions.

But, the moment she tried to interrogate him, she was tranced for a moment before her vision spun. Shockingly, the opponent managed to unsheathe his sword and slash her with it. All the while, she didn't even see the attack coming.

Thankfully, she was in her Pranic Avatar form. So, even though her head was severed, she wasn't dead, only needing to expend some Ghost Qi to heal. But, as his sword contained Metal Qi, she was damaged, almost exhausted.
