章節 433: Let there be... carnage?

"What the…!" A small shout escaped from my lips… Only for my body to react before my mind could catch up. 

My footing became unsteady. There was something wrong with the planks of the stage. I noticed it before… but I didn't expect them to deteriorate so quickly!

Yet, this wasn't the right time to ponder over the situation. Not when I still had Mia raised up and above me!

"Watch out!" I shouted, bringing my elbows to the back before pushing the girl out into the air. 

Maybe the planks finally reached their limit. Or maybe the violent move I executed caused me to step even harder on them, putting too much pressure on their weakened structure. 

Whatever it is, didn't change the outcome. 

The planks that made up the stage broke. Deprived of my footing, my leg sank down.

'Dang,' I thought when my feet touched solid ground only about half a meter down.
