Chapter 98: Battling a Demon... All for One

The large rock shattered into countless fragments as Ruthar's sword cleaved through it, his aura trailing like a storm of fury. But the demon moved like a phantom, evading the attack with a fluid grace that made Ruthar's heart sink. This creature was beyond anything he'd faced before—faster, more unpredictable, and utterly terrifying.

"You're weak for her disciple!" the demon taunted, his voice a low, venomous hiss.

Ruthar's pulse quickened. Barely a minute into the battle, and he was already bleeding profusely, the wounds deep and unnatural. Even his Eye of Adaptability—his most trusted defense—was failing him. The demon's strikes were infused with dark arts that corrupted his healing, making every attempt to recover futile.
