Chapter 381 Blackout and SIN Part II

"What the hell, man?" He grumbled under his breath. "You're leaving just like that? Isn't that a bit rude?"

He had anticipated a fight that would push both of them to their limits. But, Nerdwolf's sudden departure makes the fight between them quite unsatisfactory.

Nevertheless, he was open to some changes. The chase is kinda thrilling in its own way.

And so, Jack started to make his way toward the bustling city. He had no intention of letting Nerdwolf escape so easily.

With the possibility of Nerdwolf being a high-rank agent, Jack is sure that the SIN agent possesses some juicy information.

Jack often treats affairs in his life lightly, but when it comes to his job, he never plays around...at least most of the time.

As he ventured into the crowded streets, he realized that locating Nerdwolf in the midst of this urban maze would be no easy task.

"I need to be on higher ground," he muttered to himself.

Surveying the surroundings, he spotted a three-story building nearby. The building seemed promising in providing him with a vantage point.

Jack swiftly approached the wall. His trained eye discerned every potential handhold and foothold on the rough facade.

After mentally plan his route, he began his climbing.

He hopped from one hold to the next with ease, fluid and nimble, like a cat. With each leap and bound, he steadily made his way to the rooftop.

On the rooftop, his dark, coal-like eyes scanned the features of countless people passing by. Each face was scrutinized with keen precision.

"Not you, not you, not you either, and definitely not you..." He sifted through the faces, dismissing them one by one and ruled out those who didn't match his target's description.

As an excellent agent, remembering someone's distinct features was not a tall task for him.

And, by a stroke of fortune, Nerdwolf had not covered his face when they met which made it easier for Jack to memorize every distinctive feature.

Then, Jack's lips formed a sly, confident grin. He had found Nerdwolf, who was currently sprinting in a certain direction.

"Found you," Jack whispered under his breath.

Without hesitation, he leapt from the rooftop he was perched on to another. His lean body soared gracefully through the air, traversing the rooftops with precision like a cat.

The gaps between the buildings seemed to shrink as he covered the distance between himself and his target.

....

Nerdwolf's feet pounded against the street as he raced towards the wealthy residential area of Vofors. His breath came out in ragged gasps as he got closer to his destination.

If his memory served him well, this should the be place where most of the missions took place. A place where his fellow agents are currently at.

There was no time to waste as he spent a significant portion of time tending to his wounds. He needs to hurry and combine forces with his friends. Who knows if that Blackout agent decided to chase him or not.

So far, he senses no presence of Jack. Perhaps that man decided to not chase after him.

Judging by how carefree Jack is, he was truly hoping for that possibility.

But suddenly, as he sprinted down an alley, a shadow engulfed him, casting an eerie darkness over his path.

Nerdwolf's instincts flared, and he couldn't suppress the expletive that escaped his lips.

Panic gripped him as he looked up, his face paled at the sight that met his eyes.

"Damn it," he muttered under his breath, knowing that his desperate flight was far from over.

Jack descended from the rooftop and landed right in front of him, effectively blocking his path. His movements were fluid, like a cat stalking its prey.

"Hello, SIN agent. What a coincidence to meet you here." he greeted in a friendly tone. His dark eyes, however, gleamed with a mixture of amusement and malice.

Nerdwolf sneered, his exhaustion making his irritation more noticeable. "What a bullshit coincidence. You're clearly chasing me."

Jack simply grinned. "Well, well, don't be so quick to get angry. I do think it's a hassle to chase you, but you seem like a high-ranking agent to me. So... I'm taking you with me. No negotiation."

Nerdwolf sighed. The sound was almost a whisper as he unsheathed his sword.

He was well aware of the precarious situation he had found himself in. "Looks like I have no choice except fighting you," he said with resignation. "I might die here, though."

Seeing Nerdwolf unsheathed his sword, Jack simply raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Do we continue where we left off?"

Nerdwolf didn't waste time with words.

Instead, he rushed toward Jack, his sword held tightly in his grip.

His target was the neck.

He attempted to finish this at once.

However, with only one hand casually swinging the sword, Jack effortlessly deflected Nerdwolf's attack, sending him stumbling back several steps.

The difference in their power was abundantly clear.

"Not enough power, Mr Agent," Jack remarked with a smirk. "You're tired and I can see that. Why don't you just surrender?"

"Not a chance!" he replied firmly, readying himself for another attack.

Clang—

Their swords clashed once again, and Nerdwolf pressed his attack.

Jack maintained his smirking face as he locked eyes with Nerdwolf. But this display of superiority didn't last long.

His smirking face began to waver.

His right ear detected a faint but distinct disturbance in the air. It was as if the very atmosphere was being torn apart.

Reacting purely by instinct, Jack tilted his head to the left.

Swoosh!—

An arrow whizzed past him, narrowly missing its mark.

Jack's eyes darted to the source of the arrow.

"Look, your friend has arrived to save you. Aren't you glad?" he taunted Nerdwolf.

Nerdwolf replied confidently, "Of course! Do you think I just ran in a random direction? You're so done!"

At first, Jack saw only one agent emerging from the shadows, but soon, a second figure appeared, then a third, and their numbers continued to rise.

In Jack's assumption, he remained confident in his abilities. It wasn't his first time facing multiple enemies at once and it doesn't matter to him.

However, Nerdwolf's words had sown a seed of doubt. What if the SIN agent in front of him was right?

Jack glanced around at their surroundings.

In this kind of narrow space, evading multiple attacks would be a challenge. The risk of him being surrounded was uncomfortably high.

After a moment of contemplation, he kicked Nerdwolf in the stomach, pushing the SIN agent far from him and creating a gap between them.

"You know what... I don't think I can win the battle this time, so I'm going to get out of here now. Let's meet again next time, Mr. Agent." Jack declared as he swiftly ascended the building and disappeared from Nerdwolf's sight.
