Chapter 386: The Appearance of the Divine Bow (4)
Vector’s sword had originally aimed to sever both of Jordic’s arms at once. However, Jordic thrust out his left arm to protect the right arm holding the spear, and with that right hand, he cleanly cut off Vector’s neck.
Vector was a powerful opponent, strong enough to instill fear even in Jordic, who stood at the peak of a six-star Grandmaster. He was clearly a seven-star Transcendental. Jordic judged that if he could trade one arm to kill such a being, it was not a loss. It was also a decision born of urgency; he knew that in a normal exchange of blows, he could never win.
Even after severing Vector’s head, Jordic did not show any sign of joy because there was a worst-case scenario he didn’t even want to imagine.
“That spear is an artifact. Relying on a weapon… How disgraceful for a warrior.”
Vector was able to speak, despite clearly having his head cut off. The worst-case scenario Jordic had imagined had become reality.
Squelch!
Tentacles burst out from the severed neck and, in the blink of an eye, reattached it to the body, restoring him.
Jordic, stopping the bleeding of his severed left arm with an elixir, replied, “Becoming a monster that doesn’t die even when decapitated.. Is that the path a warrior should pursue?”
“Heh. Not every transformed being becomes immortal like me. Those who can’t handle it end up like them.”
