章 1433: Timely Retreat

'Hehehe, Grimdawn, your game is up.'

Carvel Horin sneered.

'Now that you've attained the rank of Master, don't blame me for not holding back. Pity, though, that you chose this place to achieve your long-awaited breakthrough,' Carvel's maniacal laughter rang out as he fixed his gaze on Eren.

Carvel, despite his injuries, still possessed enough strength to engage Eren in battle. His elevated rank had brought about similar enhancements to his mana core and soul as Eren's own breakthrough. Thus, while cautious of Eren's ocular prowess, Carvel's resolve wasn't paralyzed by it.

Still, Carvel saw fit to leave the task of dealing with Eren to Akass. In his assessment, Grimdawn was shrewd beyond measure.

Only the raw power of a wyvern could counteract Eren's cunning tactics, however devious they might be. Even after taking heavy damage from Birmond and Naya, the wyvern retained enough vigor and might to handle four Rankers like Eren at the same time.
