The first skeleton extended its sword toward Brando at a slow pace, but Brando's movement was ten times faster. The skeleton's sword was still in mid-air when its bony hand was already severed, a white flame emerging from the joint. The flame quickly spread over its body, ignited by a silver light, causing it to burn.
In an instant, Brando rushed through seven skeletons. As soon as he sheathed his sword, the skeletal frames collapsed behind him.
However, the young man had no time to celebrate, for he had already seen that blood-red figure pursuing him at the corner.
22 energy levels of dexterity against less than 10, the Crusader Executioner raised his axe, slashing diagonally like a shadow— the ceiling crumbled in front of him, but that slight resistance was nothing to his dexterity. Brando had no room to dodge; all he could do was grit his teeth, reverse his grip, and clash his sword vertically with his full strength.
