Chapter 136.2
The steel blade thread was released from Grave again.
Grave, as you said, I was trying to compete with you. I have become a dog who risked my life for the royal family. But that was not true. I released the poison to ensure your death. And to drive myself into a corner.
“–[Iron Rose]–“
My peach-colored hair turned a scorching gray-iron color, and the residue of light that scattered from my entire body fluttered like silver wings, as if to show my fighting spirit.
I leapt and dodged at three times the speed of a normal person, but I still couldn’t avoid the invisible steel threads that sliced through my shoulder.
“I’ve already seen that trick!”
At that moment, I felt as if the magic power being released from Grave’s prosthetic hand had spread. Perhaps the steel blade threads that had been released in a straight line were divided into several parts and released from all sides as if encircling the hand.
But Grave…that was different as well.
Combat Skill [Iron Rose] was not such a simple technique. The fact that I could not avoid the steel-blade thread, and the fact that you thought you could kill me with it, were all because I could not master Iron Rose.
When I fought the master of the Assassin’s Guild in the East Forest, I reproduced the movement of Iron Rose’s magic power myself for a moment, seeking to be as swift as when I was using [Iron Rose].
As a result, I suffered severe damage to my legs, but I thought that I could use that action to control my Combat Skill.
