The attack was powerful and explosive, enough to level the entire surrounding area, carving a path nearly a hundred meters long through the dense forest, leaving both sides littered with uprooted trees and torn earth.
Edmund let out a breath, his arm hanging at his side like a broken piece barely attached to his body.
It was clear that such a devastating attack had cost him far more than just a large amount of mana, but given the situation, it had been the best course of action he could think of.
An opponent capable of standing against a D-Rank without even flinching was not someone to take lightly. Holding back would have been the same as asking to be killed. If he could catch his opponent off guard and strike with his most devastating attack at full power, then he would do it, and so he did.
