Chapter 1064: Not moved at all
Romnick and his subordinate probably thought of many things the moment they figured the person gracing them with her presence was none other than Hera. Therefore, they weren’t surprised anymore when they were cornered and now had to march to their death.
"I just shot his leg," Hera complained, rolling her eyes. "He can walk on his own. Don’t treat him like he’s dying. At least, he got a few hours until he bleeds out!"
The subordinate looked at Romnick apologetically, releasing him so they could walk on his own. Romnick didn’t react as he channeled all his energy into keeping his balance, limping while dragging his injured leg.
"You’re crazy," Romnick breathed out, but it still reached Hera’s ear. "I should’ve killed you back then instead of Dragon."
"Mhm." Hera nodded, putting her foot down every once in a while because her snail’s pace forced her to lose balance. "If I were on that mission, I would’ve shot me first and then Dragon. Oh, right! You did try that, didn’t you? But my men jumped in the middle and took all those shots for me!"
The subordinate looked at Romnick in surprise. "What is she saying? Didn’t you say you were only targeting Dragon?"
Romnick didn’t reply, blinking wearily. His leg felt numb as buckets of sweat covered him in a short time. His vision would sometimes shake, but he managed to keep his consciousness. He knew once he lost consciousness, that would be his last. He would never wake up again.
"Why would he tell you guys he failed?" Hera sassed. "Of course, he’d blame everything just to keep his reputation."
The quirk on her lips formed into a smirk. "Romnick, Dimitri’s trusted lapdog. Whenever Dimitri wanted to get rid of someone — someone who was hard to catch — he’d send you. I did my research, you know? When I woke up after the accident, I was mindblown with all sorts of information I have in this head."
