Nord clutched his wrist as a sharp pain shot through it and a sickening tremor ran up his arm. Judging by the pain, he could tell some of the bone had fractured—and all that from a single lash of a thin vine.
Then he heard it.
A sweet, calm voice that sent a chill down his spine.
"Is that the dagger you used to hurt Miho?"
Before Nord could even turn around, his beast, Golek, reacted on instinct, throwing its massive arm forward in a punch aimed straight at Lily.
But—
Slash!
Lily casually raised a hand.
A compressed blade of wind shrieked through the air, cleaving straight through Golek's body. Just before the blade could split the beast completely in half, Golek vanished in a flash of light—transported away by its life-saving bracelet.
Lily quietly noted the detail subconsciously.
A beast could be saved from even a one-shot death attack.
