Bab 340: Midnight Crystal (Part 65)

Step. Step. Step.

Adam leaped forward, quickly finding himself in front of Plague Reaper, who was ready to face him as an equal opponent.

Without waiting for his enemy to react, Adam gripped the needle tightly, thrusting it forward, intending to pierce Plague Reaper's chest.

Plague Reaper's eyes narrowed, and he abruptly took a step to the side missing Adam's needle right in front of him. The silver needle whizzed close to his chest, but all Adam managed to accomplish was tearing a piece of cloth off Plague Reaper's coat.

'Shit... I've done this sort of thing a few times when fighting other monsters, but... this was the first time I've been outmaneuvered so easily.' Adam gulped, before changing the grip of his needle, and bringing his needle down on Plague Reaper, pointing his needle to the right.

"Agh..."

Plague Reaper let out a light, casual sigh before abruptly bending backwards, letting Adam's needle pass over his nose.
