Thanks to the amazing new Skill that Eleanora acquired, Assassination, as long as she surprises her enemy in an attack, she can increase the damage output up to +50%. It was definitely a broken Skill, but it only worked when she acted sneaky, and most of the time, after an initial attack, the enemy would already expect her to attack from behind eventually, so the Skill wouldn't activate anymore.

This is why the Skill was named Assassination, Assassins don't fight battles that take minutes, they're trained to kill as swiftly and efficiently as possible, through stealthy methods and more, Eleanora had the perfect build for that in this world, which came rather unexpected, as she was more of a strong physical fighter with great stamina in my previous life, while I was more of a magician at our early stages.

Of course, as we grew up and grew stronger into higher realms of existence, we mostly became all-rounders of both physical damage and magical damage, but in our early days of our previous life, she was always a tank and warrior-type fighter, while I was a magician and strategist.

Eleanora was able to replicate her weakest techniques thanks to having regained her Aura thanks to our Aether training we have been doing every night, and thanks to that, she shrouded the normal-looking spear in her hands with her Blood Aura, and unleashed a deadly piercing blow that seemed like a gigantic needle made of blood.

The piercing blow hit the Imp's neck in an instant, piercing through his flesh and penetrating his bones, killing it on the spot. This was truly what Assassination was all about, leveling to Level 2 really benefitted Eleanora more than we thought!

The two other Elite Imps were pushed away by Gradus blows, which pierced their leather and wooden armors and moved them away, leaving the three Hunters in the floor wounded severely.

I quickly ran to their help, as the rest of the hunters dealt with the Blue Oni, whose blows were incredibly potent, a swing of his club easily threw the hunters into the air. He was powerful beyond an Imp level of strength.

I ignored him, however, as he had his eyes locked on me, but I let the Hunters handle him, he lacked a piercing weapon for some reason, and preferred to pummel his enemies with pure strength, which actually was beneficial to me as it didn't opened wounds directly and didn't cause infections, as long as that happened the Hunters would be able to endure more, and now that they were boosted with Qi energy, they had become more formidable as well.

I reached the three wounded hunters in an instant, as I quickly decided to treat their injuries with magic and First Aid, they had multiple stab wounds over their legs and arms, so it wasn't going to be easy, but this was bound to give me a great amount of Skill proficiency.

I moved as fast as possible, using several spells of magic at the same time, thanks to my recent Level Up and my allocation of Stat Points, my Intelligence and Mana Points had increased, so I had a greater pool of Mana and my Magic had become more intense in power.

With that, I quickly cauterized the wounds with even more proficiency in the manipulation of Mana that high Intelligence Stat granted, as I then healed their wounds with the healing spells and the boost from First Aid and Savior Skills.

In a minute, they were all tidied up and ready to fight again.

"A-Amazing, you're an incredible healer!"

"Blake… we owe you one…"

"Ah! Let's go help Gradus!"

The three hunters stood up, their bodies exuded a small aura of Qi, which overflowed with bright light, it seems that they had leveled up the moment Eleanora killed that one Elite Imp through shared EXP, a concept that also extends to others that had participated in the fight than just us.

Thanks to that, their bodies had grown stronger, and their stamina was overflowing, their Qi seems to have increased as well after leveling, something of an experiment I had done ended giving me some interesting results.

CLAAASH!

Gradus attacked the Elite Imps with his spear, but the two Elite Imps were evading swiftly while throwing rocks and other throwing weapons at him, the trio of hunters assisting him ended helping him at blocking the attacks using their round wooden shields, while attacking using their spears once more.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

The Elite Imps were incredibly fast, and they evaded almost every attack, but by evading, they lowered their guards to Eleanora who had just disappeared from the scene in that moment, and suddenly emerged behind another Elite Imp, her spear shrouded in blood aura as she unleashed another surprise attack.

"Blood Spear Technique: Rose Garden!"

"GUAH?!"

The Imp suddenly saw an illusory scena round him, as the blood coming from Eleanora's spear shaped as countless and beautiful crimson roses dancing around him, and then, several piercing attacks showered his entire body in an instant through Eleanora's incredibly fast movements thanks to her very high Agility and Dexterity stats!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"GGAAAHHH…!"

The Imp groaned in agony as it vomited a mouthful of blood, filled with holes all over its body, it quickly fell over the ground while barely being able to stand. Eleanora's Techniques didn't consumed much of my Mana, but used her own Aether energy, which was the power of her very soul. Due to having a naturally strong soul from her previous life, she had a cheat-level amount of Aether even after weakening from reincarnating.

Thanks to that, her ability to use these techniques, after finally regaining her ability to use Aura, was outstanding, and she still had enough Aether for a few more blows.

BUMP!

"Finish it before it recovers!" said Eleanora, as the four hunters at her side quickly ran towards the dying Imp in the floor, which was trying to use demon magic to recover.
