> Silence…
Heavy.
Suffocating.
The entire deck watched.
Frozen.
The Overseer…
Was breathing heavily.
Blood dripping from his mouth.
His eyes—
No longer confident.
Fear.
"What… are you…?"
His voice cracked.
Kael didn't answer.
He walked forward.
Step…
Step…
Step…
Each movement calm.
Controlled.
Like an executioner approaching his target.
The Overseer roared.
Rage replacing fear.
"DIE!!"
He charged—
Everything he had.
Speed.
Strength.
A final gamble.
Kael's eyes narrowed.
I see it.
The angle.
The timing.
The opening.
He moved.
One step to the side.
The fist passed—
Close.
Too close.
Kael stepped in.
Inside the danger zone.
His chain tightened around his arm.
His muscles screamed.
But he didn't stop.
His body twisted—
And his arm shot forward.
CRACK!
Direct hit.
Right on the neck.
The Overseer's eyes widened.
Too late.
Kael stepped forward again—
Closing the distance completely.
His hand grabbed the man's head.
Tight.
Then—
SLAM!
He smashed it into the deck.
Once.
Twice.
CRACK!
Wood broke.
Blood spread.
Silence…
The Overseer…
Didn't move.
Dead.
[Task Completed]
Defeat the Overseer
Reward Granted:
+20 Points
Skill Unlocked: Shadow Step (Lv.1)
A surge of power flooded Kael's body.
His legs trembled.
Not from weakness…
From overload.
Knowledge…
Instinct…
Movement…
He understood it instantly.
Shadow Step.
A technique beyond normal speed.
The pirates…
Took a step back.
Fear spreading like fire.
The slaves…
Looked at him…
Like something unreal.
Kael stood there.
Covered in blood.
Breathing slowly.
Then—
He lifted his head.
His gaze swept across the deck.
Cold.
Silent.
No one moved.
A new balance…
Had been created.
Kael smiled.
Slightly.
"Now…"
"Who's next?"
