บท 141: Chapter 140: The New Horned Queen.

Gray's mind couldn't help but wonder why the Horned ones were at the shore when the war should have supposedly ended. 

"Ruby... Explain..." 

After saying such, Gray took a step towards her waiting for a reply. 

But the moment he took the step - *VOOM!* 

A mysterious force slammed against him, sending his figure blasting away towards the water. 

Or at least it was supposed to. 

Gray's body was suspended in the air, he had paused himself to cancel the momentum. 

Despite that... 

*Drip* *Drip* 

Blood could be seen pouring down his stomach as a small hole had been engraved in it. 

"Hm...? It appears I failed to completely pierce through?" The voice spoke up. 

Turning his head to the source, Gray could see The Duke's father with his hand stretched out. 

"Dear~ What did I tell you about going for the head?" The Duke's mother added. 

"I tried, that bastard somehow dodged it."
