"Come on, come on," Maximus gritted, as blood sprayed from his severed hand, yet he ignored the pain.
He lifted the other hand, but nothing happened. "Where are they?"
He cursed under his breath and started scrambling to escape. He knew he was no match for Selena, so there was no other option.
Managing to get up, he started running. "Where did the D-rank demons go? You don't mean he—" his words were unfinished as he stopped.
In front of him was a fallen tree blocking the escape path.
But that was not the actual problem.
It was the silhouette, squatting on the tree with glowing blue eyes. "So it was your doing?"
Maximus turned around and saw Selena approaching him with nothing but murderous intent. "Where do you think you're going?" she said, her tone a clear takeaway.
Maximus suddenly felt a movement from behind and as he turned, a sickening punch connected to his face, sending him flying towards Selena.
