Chapter 1598: Withdrawal
High in the sky, Sein swung his sleeves, dispersing the cascading pitch-black raindrops around him.
The environment of this broken plane was brutally harsh. Beyond the unrelenting downpour, violent lightning occasionally tore through the sky.
Sein deeply disliked the conditions here, but he had no choice. Moments earlier, that Rank Five walrus had charged headlong into this plane, dragging him along with all its strength.
When it came to brute force, a mage like Sein simply could not match this walrus.
His body-tempering experiments had strengthened his constitution and improved his resistance to damage, but that did not mean he could swing a giant ax like a Rank Five knight and clash head-on with such a beast.
The most rational approach was to rely on magic, harassing it from the flanks and steadily carving fresh wounds into its hide.
And by this stage of the battle, that strategy had paid off. Sein clearly held the upper hand.
Unless the creature chose to flee at the very last moment, Sein was absolutely confident that he could drain every last drop of its blood if it stayed and fought to the death.
Torrential rain, violent wind, and lightning intertwined overhead, while the black ocean beneath Sein roared with towering waves.
Beneath his Faceless Mask, Sein’s gaze remained calm and steady as he stared into the oceanic abyss before him.
This Rank Five walrus possessed a fair degree of intelligence.
It knew it stood no chance against Sein in the void.
