Chương 163: Felicity vs Ravetrisk Begins

Agnes clenched her fists until her knuckles turned white, her teeth gritted against the anger burning in her chest.

"How could you?!" she shouted, her voice breaking.

"How could you do this to him?!" She trembled with both anger and sadness, but seeing Ethan in that state allowed her rage to take over. She lunged forward, ready to strike Ravetrisk, but Felicity grabbed her wrist and stopped her. Agnes turned toward her furiously.

"Let me go! Let me go right now!"

"Calm down", Felicity said firmly.

"Calm down?! I want to kill him! Look what he did to Ethan!" Felicity kept her eyes on Ethan's body.

"Ethan isn't dead…he's still breathing". Ravetrisk frowned in annoyance.

"Is she bluffing?" he thought.

"There's no way this worm is still alive. She's probably just lying to calm the girl down". Felicity glanced toward Agnes.

"Now go. Find Elion and the others. I'll take care of things here".

"What?!" Agnes protested.

"No…I want to stay here. I want to see you kill him".

"Agnes". Felicity's voice became harder and more authoritative.

"If you stay here, you'll only be a burden and make the fight harder for me. Do as I said. Now". Agnes stared at Ethan for a long moment, her heart pounding in her chest. Then she looked up at Felicity, tears streaming from her furious eyes.

"Make him suffer", she said before turning away and leaving. If you come across this story on Amazon, it's taken without permission from the author. Report it. Ravetrisk raised his sword, still stained with blood, and pointed it at Felicity.

"Do you want to end up like this worm?"

"No. I just want to kill you". In less than a second, Felicity was upon him like a flash of lightning, aiming for his neck with both swords. Ravetrisk avoided the strike with a sudden step backward, but Felicity immediately followed with a second and then a third slash, which he barely managed to block in time.

"You're fast…" Felicity gave him no time to breathe. Her strikes came in a rapid succession, violent and precise, forcing Ravetrisk backward as he did nothing but block and evade.

"She's more technical than the worm before…but she has less strength", Ravetrisk thought. Felicity kept driving him back. On her next strike, Ravetrisk blocked and suddenly closed the distance, catching her off guard with a brutal headbutt to the nose that made her stagger. He immediately followed with a thrust aimed at her heart. Felicity deflected it with one sword and used the other to create a slash of air that tore a wound across his chest. Ravetrisk gritted his teeth.

"You can control the wind element… not bad". Felicity said nothing and unleashed several more slashes of air. Ravetrisk blocked every one with ease, then pointed his sword at her and unleashed a devastating shockwave. Felicity was hurled into the wall. The impact was brutal, and she collapsed to the ground, pain exploding through the back of her head and spine. Ravetrisk slowly approached. When he was less than a meter away, he brought his blade down toward her neck.

Felicity blocked the strike with one sword and used the other to slash his leg. Ravetrisk let out a pained groan and staggered backward.

"Bitch…" he growled through clenched teeth. Felicity struggled back to her feet and raised her swords. She lunged again, aiming for his throat. Ravetrisk managed to jerk his head backward at the last moment, suffering only a shallow cut across his neck. Felicity tried to strike his throat again, but Ravetrisk evaded the slash and closed the distance, driving a powerful kick into her stomach. Felicity crashed to the ground. Ravetrisk immediately tried to strike her, but she was faster.

She sprang back up and avoided the blow, putting several meters between them. Two of Ravetrisk's subordinates approached from behind.

"Boss!"

"Sorry for the delay".

"Stop talking and kill her". The two nodded, drew their swords, and charged. Felicity raised her guard. The first attacked from the side while the second came straight at her. Ravetrisk, however, did not remain idle. He pointed his sword toward all three of them. A large piece of wood formed at the tip of the blade, sturdy and sharp as a spear. He launched it without hesitation. Felicity's eyes widened. She jumped aside, moving just in time.

The projectile pierced both subordinates through the chest, sending them crashing into the wall and splattering their blood across it. Ravetrisk looked at their corpses without the slightest hint of emotion before turning back to Felicity.

"What's your name?"

"Felicity".

"Felicity…you have excellent reflexes. I'll remember your name for a few days after I kill you".
