Chapter 313: 313. A Desperate Situation - A Slim Chance of Survival

Everyone's faces turned grim as they heard the killer. They knew survival was impossible unless someone from their guilds arrived to help, but that was unlikely, considering they were cut off from the outside world. There had been no responses from their guilds at all.

Their only hope was that the killer wouldn't finish them quickly and would take his time. At least that way, someone passing by on the highway might notice something and alert the authorities.

But that, too, seemed far too unlikely.

Erza's expression darkened as she looked at the killer and her guild members. For the first time in a while, she felt utterly helpless.

'If only I were stronger...'

She kept thinking this as she anxiously bit her lip. She could sense the wild aura radiating from the killer and realized he was at the 9th level of the Platinum rank. Her peak Gold Rank strength wouldn't stand a chance here.
