บท 93: Battling a Family of Demon Bears

Callum's legs went numb bit by bit as he forged on ahead. Placing all his trust in the words of his captain, the swordsman drew on the last of his energy.

If he could only make it to the light outside the cave, then surely he'd be safe… he told himself. In a situation as dire as what he faced, a little hope went a long way.

As he shot past the two demon bears barring his way to the entrance, seeds of doubt began to creep into his mind.

'Too late to turn back now!' gritting his teeth with defiance, Callum persevered and sent the last of his mana into the enchanted katana.

The largest of the demon bears, unfazed by his sudden burst in speed, left the cracks it had created in the barren ground and lunged forward, biting at the dashing figure.

The beast's maw brushed the fabric of Callum's attire before the student accelerated faster still, putting more distance between himself and the beast.
