Chapitre 269: Crimson Dawn (8)

"Fuck." I whispered as I leapt back. I still didn't have a weapon – I couldn't hope to stand against Uriithe empty handed. 

Her eyes shone golden, with a hint of crimson mixed in. She seemed as if she'd been blinded by rage – she saw nothing but me!

Spears made of light appeared in the air. Her expression filled with pride as she hurled them at me. I blocked the first two with my magic, then evaded the third. 

"Got you!" She declared a fourth one appeared behind the third. My eyes widened – I hadn't noticed that one. 

A barrier made of crackling lightning appeared around me just before the spear hit my shoulder. I heard Asher's grunts, casting so many defensive spells on me and the other two must have been taking its toll on him. I gritted my teeth as I avoided another one of Uriithe's spears of light.
