Chapter 123:
As soon as he twisted his head at the chill crawling up his spine, a sharp bolt of lightning tore past right beside him. For a moment, he thought his ear was about to get blown off—then a violent impact slammed into his side.
“Guh...!”
His vision flipped as his body was flung through the air.
Cha Seohu, his white robe fluttering like a flag, crashed hard into the wall.
“Khak, huh...”
Every cough brought up blood. He wiped the stream of blood flowing beneath his mask with the back of his hand and pressed on his throbbing side.
If I hadn’t had the defensive item, my insides would’ve been shredded.
It was a stroke of luck he had already put on Wisdom of the Sky in preparation for a battle against multiple opponents.
Seohu pressed down the hat that had almost flown off and forced himself to his feet. The tip of his sword trembled from fatigue, but it wasn’t the time to collapse in relief.
Standing before him were four A-rank Hunters. One had left with the Director, and the strongest among them was still hanging back.
That meant he had to deal with three enemies at once. One used a curved blade with electric-type skills, one could turn parts of his body into steel, and the last wielded a spear and appeared to be using reinforcement-type abilities.
