Chapter 214: Anya
The salty seawater mixed with blood rushed into Leon’s nostrils, making him feel sick. The heavy, metallic scent churned his stomach.
Fortunately, he was a tough man with strong adaptability, so he didn’t end up vomiting into the sea.
Still, passively enduring that stench wasn’t pleasant. Leon simply held his breath, gripped the Galaxy Watermelon Knife, and charged into the bloody mist, slashing wildly in all directions.
Most of his strikes hit nothing but water, but every so often he felt the distinct resistance of blade against flesh. At least he knew he was hitting something.
“Stop attacking, Chosen. It’s already dead.”
Just as Leon was recalling the general spot where his last strikes had landed—planning to follow up with a few more—he noticed the blood-stained water around him suddenly clear. At the same time, the voice of the mermaid lady reached his ears.
He looked toward the sound and saw four mermaids gathered beside him. Using their water-controlling abilities, they condensed all the blood into a single sphere suspended in the water.
Leon turned to the massive python. It was utterly still now, its body starting to float toward the surface.
The terrible wounds along its length had stopped bleeding entirely—it was well and truly dead.
