Chapter 74 - 75: The Gathering At The Pit
"C—Can’t you just stabilize yourself a bit?" Cail said as new cracks formed on his helmet. He had face-planted into the ground five times now. Sellene would randomly stop like a broken vehicle, and Cail would bump into her like a domino.
Sellene had never felt this pathetic before. "Your helmet just shattered, but I’m bleeding!" Her elbows and knees were grazed by the fall, the red blood glaring against her snow-white skin.
Speaking of that, Cail was confused. "You’re a strong void user... Why is your body this fragile? I remember it wasn’t like this before, right?"
"Secret." This was the first time Sellene had hidden something. "But... me overdrafting myself like this is bad." That was also the reason she hadn’t gone all out during the fight with the Tyrant.
Hearing her say that, Cail guessed it might have something to do with her physique.
Leaving that topic aside, Cail could sense a lot of void aura approaching them. Some familiar, some not. That commotion a while ago had caught the void users’ attention.
He wanted to say, "Can you run a bit faster?" but the last time he said that, the two of them had face-planted into the ground. He just shut his mouth and pretended he wasn’t seeing anything... But them chasing after them like hungry piranhas was a good thing. Well, at least from Cail’s perspective.
"Are we still far from the middle?!" Sellene was already going crazy. She was in no mood to estimate how near they were.
"Very near now," Cail said calmly.
