Chapter 172: [Bonus chapter] Underground Heart

ZAN! She swung her sword at the veins, leaving a crescent moon of holy magic. Thud! As she got free, she stepped on the vein and lept at the walls.

Jumping from one wall to another as she fell, Lydia slashed the veins left and right. She freed Jack first. "Jack! We need something to land on!"

"I know! Damn, last time I fell in a hole I almost lost my shoulder!" Jack growled, shifting his body to fall head first. He pulled an iron rod from his pocket, "Two gold coins going down the trash!" He threw the rod down.
