Chapter 135
Gray mana surged fiercely.
“…Whew~”
Redin whistled as he watched the gray storm whipping past beyond the bowstring. Robert ranked fourth among the swords of the Empire. Though it was true that he was stronger than Redin, the Fifth Bow, the force Robert was emanating now could hardly be seen as just that of the fourth rank.
Even though Redin knew that he and others held hidden tricks up their sleeves, he could confidently declare:
“This… looks like I’ll really become the Fourth Bow.”
That wasn’t some hidden trick; it was a full-force strike. A blow gained at the cost of staking his life, suppressing the instinctual urge to survive with unyielding willpower. Witnessing this, Redin clapped inwardly in admiration.
“Wow. Our senior is really something when it comes to loyalty.”
He couldn’t let go of the bowstring to clap, so he did so in his heart. But being impressed was one thing, and wanting to risk his life like Robert was another matter entirely.
‘Loyalty? Sure, that’s great.’
