With his back against the old man, Ray faced two opponents ahead of him. The situation was bad. The old man was unarmed, and the only thing Ray held was a wooden training sword.
Meanwhile, their enemies wielded real weapons.
The old man glanced at Ray's sword, then smirked.
"Judging by the weapon you're holding, you must be a student from Avrion Academy. I'm sorry for dragging you into this mess. Just delay them for as long as you can—I'll handle the rest."
Without hesitation, the old man lunged toward his two attackers.
Ray didn't have time to see how he was doing, as the two Dark Guild members in front of him were already on the move.
He did have one advantage—it was nighttime, and the alley was filled with shadows. This was the perfect setting to use the Black Sash skills he had learned.
