Chapitre 567: An Unmistakable Presence

One of the soldiers that had joined Ashleigh was skilled. She held her own while still paying attention when Ashleigh or the young boy with them needed her aid. She also made sure to draw her opponents away from the tower.

The boy, however, was very new to battle. He stumbled and struggled to keep the focus of his opponents. Ashleigh realized almost immediately that she needed to keep an eye on him as much as the tower.

But, to her surprise, the three of them were doing an excellent job keeping the attention off the tower. Looking at her clock, she saw it had already been six minutes. According to Clara, they would need at least ten.

Ashleigh stayed close to the boy. Together they fought a small group of hybrids. While she focused the attention of two of them, he fought one-on-one with the third.

Once Ashleigh had dispatched her opponents, she looked over just in time to witness his first solo victory.
