Chapter 68

Ashley's POV

I was still trying to set my vision straight when my opponents charged at me. I felt their footsteps, scent, and breath.

Although I could feel their traces, I wielded my sword aimlessly, missing every hit. It was a miracle that they didn't slash me. Well, it must be that they intentionally avoided slashing me.

The fight continued and it was fierce, I knew I had walked into another death trap.

I was almost giving up when I remembered Allen again. All that we passed through flashed through my head and jerked my head.

I must avenge his death! Determination coursed through me and I felt an untold surge of energy in me.

My senses quipped and I was more alert. I could feel every movement around me, even the slight grazing of the wind on my skin.

I stood rooted on a spot. My grip tightened on the sword and I was ready to slash any form of movement around me.

It worked. Maintaining my poise, I brandished my sword at every slight movement and nothing was able to get close to me.
