Nox knew exactly where he was going. When he had to be there. He made sure he wasn't dressed like he had been while doing his surveillance. No big coats just his t-shirt. The air was chilly but the power wrapped around him and he wouldn't be drawing up on the source newly, he'd just come into the vicinity with the power wrapped around him. Still known, but not suddenly.
And it didn't really matter in the long run. He'd be inverting his weaves anyway. Though dying of a heart attack now might start to cause suspicion, though he wasn't in Beijing so maybe not. Could suffocate the man... Maybe he'd use that for the next one.
The docks were filled with people. It wasn't hard to blend in. The egotistical false god didn't even look at him when he stopped in front of his podium, but a smirk did form on the man's lips. He knew Nox was there.
Nox watched as the man drew upon the power and sent waves of earth and air into the ground, spirit followed with a little fire and water. The earth began to shake as he spoke. People cheered. Some ran for cover. Nox didn't understand the words he said, but it didn't matter.
He inverted a flow, carefully wove the delving weave and sent it at the man causing the earth quake. Nox found the vital spots around the heart and plugged them with air. The power flickered and faltered as the false god clutched at his chest.
People ran to his side. People shouted. Nox assumed they were calling for a medic or a doctor or whatever they screamed in Chinese for help. Nox watched in mock panic. He stared in fear like the others.
The dying man looked at him. His eyes full of recognition now that he understood. The light faded in his eyes as the man tried to communicate but no one understood they only tended to him. No words left his mouth, he could only stare and try to speak.
Nox stayed and watched as the paramedics arrived. When the police came they pushed everyone back and Nox went without hesitation. Watching death had never been easy as a kid. The horde on the other hand relished the kill. It wanted more. Needed more...
