Chapitre 127: Grasping At Shadows

Contrary to what he thought would happen, Shadow did not attack from one of his blind spots right away. Instead, Kace was left scanning his surroundings for a hint of his presence. 'Beneath you!' Sylvan yelled in his mind a moment too late.

Kace felt a splitting pain erupt from his calf as he glanced down. Only to see the shadowy scythe protruding from the earth and bypass his armour to slice at his flesh. 'How am I meant to stop that!' Kace asked in disbelief. A weapon that could ignore his armour would prevent him from attacking in ways that he would like to.

'Use me. I'll be able to do something about it. In the meantime, don't stand in one place. Keep moving!' Sylvan advised him. Since Kace had no other ideas, he decided to follow through on it. He briefly attempted to use his Tracking skill, only to discover that Shadow left no traces behind that would allow his movements to be followed.
