"Y-You…"
Corvin's eyes widened as he felt the sword pierce his body.
"Why did you… do that…!?"
Aldric, standing behind him, didn't even bat an eye. He pulled his sword out of Corvin's stomach, making him groan in pain.
"Argh!"
Corvin collapsed to the ground.
Before he could even get back up, Aldric kicked him in the shoulder, sending him tumbling onto his back.
The confidence that had once filled Corvin's face was gone, replaced by a deathly pale expression.
He stared at Aldric, who stood beside him with his right eye closed and blood covering the area around it.
"How… is this possible!?" he growled angrily.
Aldric smiled faintly.
"I have to thank you for that arrow. If it weren't for it, the magic binding me would never have been broken."
"An arrow?" Corvin muttered in surprise.
His gaze shifted to the wound on Aldric's right eye, and he finally understood.
But Aldric wasted no more time. He raised his greatsword high.
"W-Wait—!"
Slash!
