Chương 76: Chapter 75: The Real Scheme.

'Fuck! is what I'm gonna do to the one who fired at me!', I cursed angrily.

But that anger left as soon as it arrived. My mind cooling down in an instant, as I saw another bolt coming at me, followed by another three in the distance.

It was as if this body already knew what to do and I subconsciously just followed that.

The world around me stopped, my body stopping along with it, becoming so, so heavy, as if made of lead, but my thoughts were fast as ever.

Then again, I felt the same urge, the same habitual feeling and this time I just gave in.
