Max was still flying toward Bloodstone City after killing the Angel Race assassin when two figures suddenly appeared in the sky ahead of him.
He recognized them at once.
Ana and Daniel.
The moment Ana saw him, some of the tension drained out of her face. "Max, you're all right!"
She let out a long breath of relief as she rushed toward him.
Daniel came along beside her, and though he didn't say anything right away, the relief on his face was just as obvious.
Max looked at the two of them and smiled. "What exactly was supposed to happen to me?"
Ana's expression darkened again. "You have no idea what happened after you vanished from the Ten Shadows Trial."
She glanced around briefly before continuing. "We got word that Seraphel sent one of the Twin Assassins of the Angel Race after you. The second Daniel and I heard, we came looking for you as fast as we could."
"Twin Assassin?"
Max immediately thought of the angel he had killed only a short while ago.
