บท 358: The Three-Second Fight

"In all these years…"

"Monty, this is the first time you're not bickering with me," Nicholas replied calmly to the Raven of Death's extremely cold words. It was as if he had lost all his emotions a moment ago.

"You're not even going to bother explaining yourself?"

However, he was only met with the soft sound of wind blowing through the cracks between the rocks.

Then...

*Swish!*

When he heard the sudden sound of a crossbow, Thales held his breath.

Nicholas moved rapidly. He turned sideways in a disheveled fashion and dodged the fatal arrow, which swooped through the air!

*Thud!*

There was a loud sound. A short arrow landed on the ground not far away from the Star Killer's shoulder. The shaft of the arrow was still vibrating.

"You dodged the shot beautifully."

Monty's voice rose again from behind the rocks.
