"Don't get complacent! Play the long game!" Rai Hou exclaimed, momentarily turning his head to glance at the purple barrier behind him.
'You must win, Crowley.'
"Puhahk!"
Red blood scattered across the purple canvas, subtly hinting as to who the goddess of victory was smiling upon.
'Tch, this bastard is strong…no wonder that arrogant scout was defeated…' Shye mused.
If even he was struggling against the monster, then Koneko was probably easily overwhelmed within mere seconds.
Still, it didn't mean he had lost all hope of winning. He was just getting started.
The reason why he spat out blood was because he opted for a head-on clash to see how he would fare against the monster without using any abilities.
Naturally, the Voidos Nightstalker also wasn't using any abilities. It was a fair, head-on clash.
It was unfortunate that he lost.
As announced, I’ll be taking Sundays off for the month of August, so I’ll be posting just one chapter on Saturdays and Sundays. This break is crucial for my mental health, and I appreciate your understanding. I’ll resume the usual 14 chapters per week in September. Additionally, I’ll start uploading the remaining four bonus chapters next week.
