บท 266: Stepping up

Clutching his belly with a grimace of pain, Leo coughed up a mouthful of blood that stained the ground beneath him. The impact from that mysterious force had undoubtedly taken a toll on him, and it was clear he had sustained injuries from the devastating blow. With a violent, pained gesture, he spat out the blood, his expression etched with discomfort.

In the midst of the chaos, Leo's mind raced with uncertainty. He couldn't be certain of what lurked in the darkness beyond the tide of Takali bulls, but there was an undeniable feeling that something powerful was pushing them relentlessly toward the city. It was a gut instinct, an unsettling notion that gnawed at the back of his mind.

However, Leo was not one to dwell on his injuries or his doubts for long. With an air of indifference in his eyes, he slowly rose to his feet, even as he was swarmed by countless Takali bulls, their fiery eyes fixed on him with malevolent intent.
