Obstacles (5)

The middle-aged Priest is not only holding Rexorem with one hand; he is also preparing something with his other hand. I try to pry Rexorem off his hold, but to no avail—his hold is too strong.

As I see his other hand glow in gold, I immediately know it is not a good news. The aura it is exuding alone is already terrifying, so I know if I got hit by it, it won't be pretty.

Whoosh!

Still, I have no other choice but to get hit by it. I can't afford to let go of Rexorem and lose it here just to avoid the attack—Rexorem is too precious to be lost like that.

"Luxia!"

"On it!"

Luckily though, I have Luxia that can do something to the Priest's Holy Power. Coating my body with Mana and deciding to trust what Luxia is capable off, I take the blow.

Boom!

"Kuhak!"
