AN ENEMY LIKE AN ALLY, ETHAN CROSS APPEARS

Mot wiped the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand after receiving the impact to his abdomen. The electric shock still tingled through his body, but his expression remained cold and calculating.

"What exactly are you?" he asked, without taking his eyes off her. "You're not an angel or a demon... but you're not human either."

Victor tilted his head slightly with a mocking smile.

—I don't see why I should answer you.

Mot clenched his fists.

"That's a shame." He flexed his fingers, and the energy around them began to vibrate intensely. "Then I'll have to force it out of you."

The ground beneath his feet shook.

Suddenly, an immense amount of roots violently sprouted, spreading in all directions like a sea of snakes trying to catch Victor .

But just when it seemed like they were going to wrap it up…

His body disappeared in a flash of blue light.

—Too slow.
