Chapter 312 < Side Story 7 >
“Haaah!”
As if trying to hide her embarrassment, Jia let out a powerful shout and charged at the remaining enemies.
Having gained confidence from successfully executing ‘Fire Hand,’ her actions were fearless.
The addition of her and Dohyun to the already numerically inferior enemies, who had already lost one member, was like adding fuel to the fire.
Swoosh-
With a flick of Jia’s hand, silver blades coated in gold appeared in the air, targeting the enemies’ weak points.
She truly didn’t care about defense in the slightest.
This meant that she was focusing all her energy solely on offense.
It was an act made possible by her belief that Dohyun would protect her no matter how she fought.
And Dohyun did not betray Jia’s trust.
“Eek-!”
‘Blade Edge,’ an enemy, screamed as if in desperation and charged at Jia!
Jia, who was focused solely on attacking, couldn’t react in time to ‘Blade Edge’ who was charging with ‘Breakthrough Slash.’
At that moment, it seemed as if she would be cut by ‘Blade Edge’s’ blade at any second.
“Not gonna happen.”
Clang-!
A golden shield rippled into existence in the air, deflecting the blade swung by ‘Blade Edge.’
Dohyun, who had been holding Jia’s hand and following behind, took a step forward and blocked ‘Blade Edge.’
Realizing that his attack had been blocked, ‘Blade Edge’ tried to retreat, but Jia wasn’t about to let him.
