Chapter 77: Meeting A New Friend

At that moment, I heard a sharp sound like an arrow piercing the air. Then, Galen flipped over and fell to the side. I scrambled forward and saw Galen pull a blood-stained short arrow from his armor.

He propped himself up on his sword and scanned the area for the shooter. At this moment, another arrow flew at Garen's back, but he seemed to have expected it and dodged it in a flash. He forcefully swung the sword in his hand against a large tree, and a smaller figure immediately jumped from the treetop.

Garen stood in the middle and looked at me and the petite figure at the same time as if he was thinking about whom to kill first. Sure enough, Garen quickly pulled a dagger from his waist and threw it at me.

"No!" I roared, and a blinding light streaked across the sky. Garen, who was only half a step away from me, seemed blocked by some force. His right hand holding the dagger was suspended in mid-air. The tip of the dagger was aimed in my direction.
