Chapitre 279: Rakul

Alex gritted his teeth, yanking the arrow out of his shoulder with a swift, painful motion.

Blood trickled down his arm, but he ignored it, focusing instead on closing the gap between him and Rakul.

The arrow in his foot was preventing him from making any hasty movements however.

With how little time he had, Alex had to choose between one or the other, and chose to heal the wound to his foot rather than the one to his shoulder.

Without his foot, he would basically be crippled in this fight, which was basically a death sentence when considering how fights between awakened went.

But Alex could still continue the fight with one arm incapacitated.

Virtue's Edge was only a one handed sword, so his movements with his sword wouldn't be impeded too much.

With the sword stances Professor Will had taught him, he could adapt very quickly to certain scenarios like this.
