Chapter 7: Inheritance
However, his current situation wasn't much better as he was already severely injured by the saber light. He was bleeding from the injuries all over his body and couldn't even move.
Just as he wanted to muster up the energy to get up and run away, the two men entered the building and cornered him inside.
"Hehe, a brat at the fifth level of the foundation establishment realm thinks he can escape from us? I don't know if you're just brave or stupid."
"We initially wanted to give you a quick death but now that you've angered us, we'll make you suffer as much as possible."
Just as they approached the heavily injured Adrian, a drop of blood landed on the pendant hidden in his robes.
Suddenly, the pendant started emitting a rainbow-colored light that that would have shot to the sky and attracted a lot of attention if they hadn't been inside the building. This light enveloped Adrian just as he passed out from the pain and blood loss.
The two men were shocked and tried to escape. However, they were too late as the rainbow light enveloped them and vaporized them before they could even scream for help.
Adrian woke up after God knows how long to find no traces of his pursuers. Only a scorched mark was left where the two men were standing previously.
He was initially confused and skeptical, wondering where they were and why they hadn't killed him yet.
