Malachi was about to put his plans for revenge into motion when he suddenly sensed something approaching.
Almost instinctively, his body moved, carrying him away from his original position with a speed that none of the nearby onlookers had anticipated.
And it was fortunate that he had.
Several enormous roots erupted from the ground where he'd been kneeling, twisting around one another as they attempted to imprison him.
One of Malachi's eyes turned toward the roots, while the other had already located the source of the spell.
Paul and his companions.
Every eye scattered across Malachi's body soon settled upon the group, who watched him with extreme caution.
Yet despite their obvious fear, some of them still had the audacity to look at him with unmistakable killing intent.
"Heh, I see what this is. Want to get revenge for that girl, is that right?"
