Chapter 290: Siege

By the time she reacted, it was too late to control her magic. Halse had already jumped onto the table.

His left hand stabilized his body, and his right hand, which held his weapon, had already raised his sword to strike at Violet's neck.

As a warrior, his instincts and abilities prompted an almost flawless attack.

With no time to react, Violet found herself in an entirely passive position, despite seemingly having the advantage.

Everyone knew the threat she was in.

Thus, Violet didn't have much time to react or make a decision.

However, Violet, when in a state of battle, was far from a weak mage.

Although she had powerful magic as her offense, she also had enough physical strength to protect herself.

From his elevated vantage point, Halse's threatening posture gave him an absolute advantage.

But at this moment, Violet sat in her chair and kicked the table over with one foot.

She was afraid of no one and feared nothing.
