What was meant as a shortcut became a trap. The bounty hunters flowed from the shadows, surrounding the lone hooded figure, cutting off any escape. In that moment of looming despair, a blur of motion tore through the quiet. Silvers Rayleigh, the Dark King, moved with a lethal, effortless grace. His sword was a flash of silver, disarming and dismantling the attackers with precision that seemed almost casual. Not a single mark touched him. With a final, efficient chokehold, the last hunter crumpled to the cobblestones. As the dust settled, Rayleigh turned. His sharp eyes softened, crinkling at the corners as he offered a warm, disarming smile to the stunned pirate before him.
