"Argh!"
The javelin's heart-stopping precision was inevitably followed by a scream.
"AHHHH!" Fear gripped the Captain's heart. He couldn't understand why this man wasn't running, why he was being ignored. 'Isn't he afraid to die?!'
He lunged, certain his next slash would take the man's head!
A small, thin figure suddenly shot out, wreathed in a ball of fire—no, not fire! It was a head of fiery red hair.
The figure had been hiding behind the reef all along, secretly protecting him.
It only struck when the Captain drew near.
The descending blade met sharp, charging claws, striking sparks.
The blade was knocked aside. The small body had erupted with a terrifying power the Captain couldn't have imagined, as if he were facing a savage bear!
The Captain, who had always been blessed by "miracles," now witnessed a true one.
SQUELCH!
It was too fast. The Captain's eyes widened, a gurgling sound escaping his throat as blood sprayed everywhere.
