Erina had grown accustomed to staying at her stronghold late into the evening for her training, while the majority of her faction members returned to their dorm rooms early, leaving only a few of her closest confidants with her.
And Zerix, saw this as an opportunity and planned an ambush as she and her confidants were returning to the dorm building after training.
As they walked the dark streets, a loud roar shattered the silence.
Awooooooo!–
Erina immediately reached for her daggers, her brow furrowing in suspicion. Her confidants followed suit, pulling out their weapons.
But before she could react further, a sharp pain lanced through her stomach, as if she had been stabbed.
!?
Ahk!—
She looked down to find blood seeping from a wound, and when she turned to see who was to blame, she was faced by her confidant's face twisted in a vicious grin, brandishing a knife smeared in her blood.
