Chapter 122.2: Embracing the Light of Ambition
\nMy hand goes numb for a moment. The power of the blow hitting the wolf’s bone was so great that recoil was even greater. But it was enough for Luukan to lose its balance and I used that moment to put some distance in between us. Dashing around like a bunny trying to evade the ferocious wolf, I manage to point Luukan’s attention towards me and force it away from Rei. For now, at least.
Scorpion gauntlets are powerful but slow and heavy to handle. If it is speed and precision you want, Yuzuki would be the weapon of choice here. Good for the defensive playstyle. Switching my equipment I do some quick math in my head and do rough estimates. The trigger here will be…… the moment Rei hits her limit.
Now, if only I could keep it off Rei for long enough…… I estimate that the next fifteen minutes will be critical. But it would be a time where the odds would lean heavily in Luukan’s favor.
The question remains: what to do now……?
The battlefield in the middle of the night. A burning bird in the sky and a jet-black wolf on the ground. And in between them an armored knight and a half-naked birdman, wielding their weapons in unison, their shadows advancing forward as one.
