But when she looked back, it was an even bigger problem…
Margaret and the woman stayed close to the caravan for Laura's Sanctuary, so they were the first to encounter the Heretics when they charged forward.
They were initially so hungry that their limbs were weak, but one should never underestimate human potential when it comes to life and death situations.
Facing the sharp claws of the Heretics, they squeezed out the last bit of strength, waving the Longsword wrapped in torn cloth in an attempt to resist.
But how could her strength compare to the frantic Heretics? At the moment of contact, the Longsword slipped from her hand.
Seeing that she was about to be seriously injured, an arrow suddenly pierced the back of the Heretic's neck, interrupting their action, but it was not a fatal wound; they could recover in a breath's time.
