Lilly looked at him with guilty eyes. she really didn't want to kill someone, but she had to in order to not disappoint Esther and she knew that she had to kill sometime if not now than later.
The bandit looked at her guilty look and knew that she was a kindhearted girl and would hesitate to attack. He suddenly had an idea 'If I take this girl hostage, that woman won't dare to attack me and I'll be able to leave here safe and sound.'
He wielded his dagger and slashed at her chest as soon as she entered his attacking range. He didn't use any mana in this slash as he only wanted to injure and not kill her.
Slash!
Lilly was feeling conflicted and wasn't focused. Therefore, she couldn't react in time. Subconsciously, she raised her hand in a cross to defend against the attack and was slashed at her left forearm, leaving a deep gash. Blood flowed out uncontrollably.
