Chapter 137 - Power (3) (1/2)

When Aleen was about to grab Claire, the dran punched again.

If the first punch was the bait to force Aleen to save Claire, then the second punch was the killer blow. The level-three dran aimed at the place where Aleen had to pass to rescue Claire.

Aleen's expression changed, but in the next second, he put on a determined face. Even if he knew that it was a trap, he could not see at Claire in danger without doing anything.

Lightning surged from Aleen's body and flowed into his veins. Aleen decided to risk it all. If he could not rescue Claire, then he would die in the try.

But when he was about to face the punch, he saw something from the corner of his eyes.

Aleen put on a startled expression and hesitated slightly, but he finally decided to bet on her.

So, he stopped.

The level-three dran was surprised when he saw Aleen's actions. He was sure that Aleen would try to rescue Claire at any cost, and he looked determined to save her just a moment ago. Why did he suddenly stop then?

But at the next instant, someone answered his question.

It was impossible for Claire to evade the level-three dran's punch. She was too slow and her body was too weak to move away in time.

Precisely because he knew it, the level-three dran slowed down the speed of the attack. It was to give Aleen the chance to react and bait him successfully, and also because he could not afford to kill Claire. After all, his main goal here was related to her.

But precisely because of it, he created an opportunity for a certain someone.

When the punch was about to strike Claire, a silver-haired girl appeared suddenly and rushed towards her.

She moved quickly. In an instant, she appeared beside Claire and pushed her away.

The level-three dran was surprised. He could not believe that he did not notice that someone was hiding nearby despite his higher level.

'A stealth skill?' He wondered briefly, but in the next instant, he responded to the girl's sudden appearance. With a snort, he threw another punch towards the new girl.

However, Aleen was not going to allow it.

Lightning flashed and he appeared in front of the dran. His sword glowed in silver and an enormous amount of mana made it vibrate at great speed.

"Die!" Aleen shouted powerfully and thrust the sword towards the dran's eyes. The level-three dran reacted instinctively and retracted his punch to block the sword.
