Within the teht, he could feel aIn an instant, his body shook as though his internal organs shi+fted, and his HP bar plunged to orange froer withstand the overwhel impact and shattered into pieces

Sereck iht appeared on his sword, rushi+ng towards Rhode’s chest

However, Rhode didn’t panic He held up his right hand and paused for a esture

“Woo———!!!”

The black hound howled and rushed forward Its whole body ily made its way towards Sereck In retaliation, Sereck snorted and swiped his hand Following that gesture, a brilliant light split the black hound into two

But it wasn’t the end yet

Born forth from the flae energy e from the tip of his sword His eyes widened, but it was already too late for him to react

The hound which split into two pieces, began to turn bright red It continued roaring and rolled towards Sereck, and finally, its flay within and imploded

At this very ripped it without hesitation

“Clang!!!!”

A pair of white wings appeared out of thin air, shi+elding Rhode and blocking the flames

When the fire and ashes finally scattered, it revealed two silhouettes close to one another

Sereck stopped ap between his sword and Rhode’s chest was only a few inches, but there was a thin barrier of angelic wings in between his sword and Rhode’s body At the same time, Rhode’s sword stopped next to Sereck’s neck

“Eleic weapon, and swords time, Sereck finally broke the silence

“Not bad, young reat”

“Thank you for your cohtly and reesture to recall the Spirit Bird, which soon arrived and perched on his shoulder quietly

“You’re welco time since I had so much fun”

Sereck revealed a rare soft smile as he expertly sheathed his sword

“What is your name?”

“Rhode Rhode Alander”

Rhode replied Sereck calreat name! I like you, boy! In the Deep Stone City, you’re the first one to make me suffer a loss!”

Sereck patted Rhode’s shoulder and laughed

“So, old man, did I pass the mercenary assessly expression In fact, when he saw Rhode’s skill, he already expected this outcome However, this little devil still chose to ask him about the assessment directly He could not accept this result and helplessly looked towards Sereck, non-verbally indicating for his assistance

Facing the old president’s gaze, Sereck sly and winked

“Frankly, with your talent, being a mercenary is a waste… However, since this is your choice, it’s not ards to the assessment, in my opinion, you’ve passed!”
