Chapter 79: Gruelling Battle - Bitter Choice!

"Akira...!" 

Rena's voice allowed me to focus my mind once again, the anger almost clouding me completely. Her concerned face and lovely eyes allowed me to prepare for battle—stepping back, I hopped to increase the distance while grabbing her hand.

"Rena, we cannot fight here; there is too much open ground. Do you trust me?" I shouted to gather her attention.

"Of Course! Anything for you, Aki!"

Her response filled me with confidence—stepping on the ground as it cracked under the force, we jumped into the air before hopping between the thick branches, rapidly creating distance with the heavily armoured and slow-moving knights.

Tap! Creak! Hop!

I put all my power into my legs, focusing on the arrows shooting blindly, almost cutting my arms in mid-jump, but they were not the best as my ears listened to that noble screeching orders to the knights.
