Bab 475: A Father's Despair

The shadow escaped as the fallen lord materialized between the bronze pillars. However, at that moment, bloody tendrils shot towards him like a spiderweb, trying to capture him.

Hand covered in dark scales, the fallen lord caught it, trying to minimize the attack.

*PSSSS!*
