Chapter 214 - What A Cunning Move! (1/2)

(Tom's PoV)

Normally, no one could leave unscathed from those fierce shots of fire. But, much to my surprise, he did it!

As soon as those fire faded away, we all saw him fallen back with his eyes wide opened in shock. I was curious about how he could be safe and sound after that fire hit him. However, Jane didn't give him any chance to recover from his shock when she launched another attack.

With the fire burning high in the sky, she pulled a bow out of the air and put an arrow made of fire in it, aiming for Rasha's head. The cold look she had on her face really made me think that she really wanted to kill him.

There was no blood thirsty air detected from her, but the way she looked at Rasha as if his life was not something worthy. Rasha was like an annoying mosquito that could be killed anytime without feeling guilty.

But, I believed Jane would not reach to that point. There was no way she would kill someone as important as Rasha . But, the way she acted felt dangerous. Ah, I really didn't know what Jane had in mind. I really had no other choice but had faith in her.

I focused myself on seeing Jane raining Rasha with fire arrows. That poor guy could only run away while screaming like a woman.

The strange thing was… he was untouched by the fire!

Now that my eyes had gotten used to the scene in front of me, I could finally see the faint barrier appeared in front of Rasha, protecting him every time he would get hit by the fire. It was so short that if I didn't watch it carefully, there was no way I could notice it.

However, I doubted that coward noticed anything. He still had that horrified expression on his face. If I were him, I wouldn't need to feel afraid since I would be unharmed from the attack.

But, he didn't.

How stupid was he exactly?

Well, again, it was normal for him.

But, I was more curious to why Jane kept getting more vicious in her attack. Each of her attack seemed to aim for kill. She might have known about the barrier, but she kept attacking Rasha.

It was only around ten minutes since she started attacking and I had lost count on how many attacks had been shot towards that man. The sturdy barrier finally showed a crack and Jane increased her attack.

The crack spread like a spider web under those attacks. I unconsciously held my breath as I watched it warily. Any of those attacks could cause death if it hit Rasha head-on!

I thought I should be ready to pull that man out if something bad were to happen.

However, my concern was not needed after all.

Right before the barrier collapsed, someone appeared between them and repelled those attacks away!

Judging from the way his body was emitting a faint glow and looking almost transparent, I knew he was someone from the other dimension. Also, somehow our dim surrounding turned even darker, like a dark cloud before a heavy rain.

Instantly, Jane stopped attacking. There was a glint of victorious in her eyes. Her sleepiness seemed to have disappeared. The sight of her bearing the demeanor of a winner looked sparklingly beautiful, especially with the glow of blue fire behind her. I was mesmerized by the scene in front of me for a split second.

”You're here, finally.” Jane said with a faint smile on her face.

”Master of First Army.” The man bowed down to Jane.
