Chapter 70 - A Balance Between Offense and Defense
“Only FOUR drops?!” Lady Danae threw a stare at Sunders, anger appeared on her aged face. She snapped, “Sunders, this was your plan all along eh? You knew Boko is greedy, so you watched him trap himself in the ruptures, did you not!?”
Sunders only grinned without saying anything. He stood inside the magic array in a relaxed manner and watched Lady Danae’s outburst nonchalantly. His arrogance was plain on the look.
Lady Danae felt really uneasy against Sunders’ attitude. However, when she thought about the fact that a group of elites from Gravity Forest was standing behind her, she also returned her own gaze at Sunders.
Even though she was not expecting Sunders’ mere presence to be enough to inflict great pressure on them, the elites behind her were either looking aside or trying to show negligence about the situation. The black-haired man, Saipan, was the only one who was seemingly supporting Danae by keeping his own angered gaze on Sunders.
“Lady Danae… that was wrong of you. Boko was already inside the ruptures when we arrived,” Flora spoke in her usual smiley manner. No one could tell whether she was telling the truth. Even Boko was not exactly sure when Sunders arrived to save him.
“There aren’t many such coincidences in the world,” Lady Danae humphed.
Saipan spoke to her, “My Lady, should we…”
Hearing Sliv’s unpleasant voice, Flora complained in her mind. ‘Oh no’ my arse!
Like Lady Danae. Sliv carefully inspected the spell array with a frown and decided to halt. He moved back to his own group. Silv was bad at dealing with spell arrays. He also knew that the array must be the work of a master which would probably take hours to breach. Meanwhile, Sunders and Flora were free to retaliate or teleport away.
A perfect balance between offense and defense.
