Chapter 132: There is a chance.
[Lara has defeated Neb’Alseth’s disciple (Apprentice)]
[+120AP]
Before the message faded from his sight, Mark watched as Lara came up to the Red Hood who had just evaded Ben’s projected hand and cleanly severed his head. She knocked him with the butt of her spear then turned her sight to the other disciple they were facing, barely stopping to glance at him.
The second Red Hood recognized the threat and turned to face her. He even summoned a halo, clearly intending to use an ability of some kind. Too slow. Whatever he planned on doing, Lara had no intention of letting him. She flung her spear at him then chased after it, crossing the distance in no more than two steps. Though he managed to dodge it, the spear was never meant to strike him in the first place. A kick to the side from above slammed his entire body into the floor, and though the impact was absorbed by he Force Field it could do nothing about the white blade that passed through his legs, severing them above the knees.
Unlike the last one, this disciple didn’t fear letting his screams be heard. The blood that was spewing from his fresh stumps stopped so he wasn’t about to bleed out, but the pain wasn’t about to leave him just yet. Fortunately for him, the maid was merciful enough to knock him out right after ensure he would never walk again for the rest of his short life.
"Good gracious..." Ben muttered, and Mark wanted to do the same.
It all happened so fast, and Lara made it look so easy. The Red Hoods who had given them so much trouble were dealt with just like that. The maid stopped to glance at the ongoing battle then nimbly retreated away from it, arriving beside those two.
"Master." She glanced over her shoulders. "Please accept my apologies. I failed to react and allowed harm to befell you."
A blank stare was the response she got, and for a few seconds that was it.
"Forget about that." Mark shook his head. "We need to think of what we will do from here."
Massive orange hands manifested around the two Red Hoods the maid had just knocked out and carried them out of the hall.
