Chương 776: The Darkest Plane (5)

A sudden, chilling wind swept through the area, and Arpious sensed a larger group of Darklings converging on her position. She took a deep breath, focusing her energy and readying herself for the onslaught. The first Darkling appeared directly in front of her, followed by two more on either side. They moved with a coordinated precision that hinted at a greater intelligence driving them.

Arpious sprang into action, her scythe flashing through the darkness like a beacon of deadly light. She targeted the Darkling in front of her first, striking with a series of rapid, fluid motions that left no room for error. The Darkling tried to evade, but Arpious's strikes were too fast, too precise. It dissolved into the shadows, but she had no time to celebrate.
