Bran stepped behind the closest assassin, a woman wielding dual daggers. Black energy consumed his right hand, and with one swift move, he grabbed onto the woman's helmet.
The energy immediately began consuming her life essence, and in less than a second, she fell over, dead. She tried to scream, but just as her mouth opened, her life ended.
Four others remained unaware; this proved disastrous, as the woman's absorbed power made Bran strong enough to easily kill them.
Two defended against the general, while the other two attacked from her blind spots. They were in mid swing when a strange feeling came over their body. All four felt unnaturally weak.
Their heads snapped to Bran, who was grinning wide. Both his hands consumed by dark energy, he pointed towards them.
