"Hahahaha!" Scott laughed when he realized Theo was weak. "This is our power difference. Even with our level being the same, you won't be able to defeat me."
"…" Theo gritted his teeth and quickly stood up. He pointed his spear toward Scott and made eye contact with Alea, who seemed to be stopped from helping him because of Hontar. As he was about to leap toward Scott, he stomped the ground as if making his location known.
To everyone's surprise, Theo's shout echoed in the field. "Alea! On your right. He is coming for you!"
Both Scott and Hontar were bewildered as the latter quickly glanced to the left to confirm it, only to find he got fooled by Theo.
As for Alea, she simply watched Hontar's facial features to know the answer. The moment she got her answer, she matched Theo's lie and broke free from Hontar, making her way toward Theo.
Good news. I think I can start working 2 chapters/day next month. We will finally speed up.
