Chapter 360 Playing Spoiler (1/2)
Chapter 361 Hexen Bee
Those two Adept rankers had both fallen victim to the illusion caused by that vial break It was the same D-Rank illusion bomb a certain someone had received as their reward The last of the theht over their battlefield
Eren was standing at the edge of a long wooden broomstick that had been suspended still in the air It had runic sy imbued withcarelessly on the other end of the broo as she kept on flipping pages The young girl didn't even look dohen the potion was detonated
Eren had only requested Layla to give him a ride on her artefact and fly over the Adept rankers' battlefield He wanted her to stabilize the artefact so that he could watch the battle fro a safe distance
Tai and Jerry both weren't expecting any aerial intrusion so they hadn't spread their mana sense in that direction much Eren had expected that to be the case, that's why he was up there
Eren had a long chat with Eliza and Layla regarding their plan During that talk, he had found out that Layla could fly using the broo the opportunity to do so
Layla was very angry when Eren referred to her artefact as the broomstick She had named it Hexen Bee and made Eren repeat it a few tiured the artefact was named as such because of the bee-like low noise it would produce while it was active
Eren wasn't acting out of empty spite for Jerry, Arizihana, or Marie for that e or a result of his disturbed mental state He was certainly not in his opti ahead-- thinking of what is right for hi an Adept ranker wasn't easy The higher one's rank is, the more trump cards they would have for all kinds of situations Had Eren not intervened, the Adept rankers would not have entered the battle They would have let their subordinates settle scores instead of fighting till death with each other
Their respective organizations would also prefer it this way They could afford to lose Novice rankers They would only frown upon losing Ace rankers But the Adept rankers' deaths would be treated very differently than the rest
Eren knew that Jerry would ainst the Beast Bloods He didn't want any Adept ranker on his tail Plus, Arizihana and Marie had also focused on him because of the blackmail
Eren needed a breather from his ene to watch over his back For that, he needed to give his eneets to latch onto or kill theht after he saw the condition of the battlefield He realized that Jerry and the Adept rankers from the Beast Bloods would have their separate shoay from the main battlefield This was a makeshi+ft plan But one that he needed to do anyway
A few ht in the middle of two Adept rankers
"I think, in about a minute, it will be safe for you to pluck their heads Provided you take necessary precautions But do it fast
Because as the potion-released D-Rank mana starts to subside, the Adepts' defensive mana layer will start to come back to normalcy You wouldn't be able to hurt even their hair when that happens"
Layla said as she flipped another page Eren nodded before responding:
"Bring this broo the Hexen Bee down I don't want to jump from here"
Layla frowned and berated Eren:
"You… You are an idiot, Eren Idril You can never becoonist like this I allowed you to ju pose like a true protagonist
