Chapter 303 - Crisis (5) (1/2)

As the younger swordsman slumped down to the ground, the older swordsman was in danger. It was even painful for him to stand up. He saw the younger swordsman died in front of his face.

With the younger swordsman's death, the older swordsman's fate was sealed. Moreover, the injuries on his leg was worse than he could imagine. He wanted to run away, but he could not.

Auron charged forward to the older swordsman. He felt the confidence to win this fight. So, he didn't even hold back anymore. He used the swordsman's movement skill.

Auron didn't care whether the older swordsman suspicious or not. He could not care about dead man anyways.

The boost in speed made the older swordsman shocked and could not anticipate Auron's attack. He raised his sword in front of him to block the attack. However, Auron had moved to his right and attack from that side.

The older swordsman had a difficult time to follow Auron's movement. In the end, he could only die under Auron's attacks.

Auron stood up, facing the sky after he killed the older swordsman. With his left hand, he reached his right shoulder and pressed on the wound. He sighed relieved when suddenly he heard a calling.

It was the two swordsman's friends that looking for them. Auron snapped out from his state of mind and quickly escaped running away deeper into the forest.

A few seconds later, the two swordsman's friends found the corpse of their friends, but they could not see who the killer was. In the end, they could only bring the bodies and report it to their leader.

Hearing the report, the leader didn't really care about losing one or two subordinates and didn't bother for a man's search. He was more concerned about the luggage that he was told to steal.

Meanwhile, Auron, who was still running away deep inside the forest, felt that he had run far away enough and stopped. He felt somewhat fortunate, as well as unfortunate.

He felt fortunate that he could still manage to escape safely. However, on the other side, he also felt unfortunate. It was because he had to look for another way to complete his spy mission.

Auron opened the map that he had brought and looking for a way to get to the nearest town. When he was looking for a way, from his northwest, a bustling sound was heard. From that direction, two people were running away while being chased by two other people.

One of the two people who were being chased had injuries all over his body. Even blood was pouring from the slash on his forehead. He was being piggybacked by the other, who tried to save him.

Behind them, there was an archer and a thief who was chasing the two of them. The archer shot out an arrow and tried to kill the escapee. Fortunately, the arrow missed the target. However, the distance between the chaser and the one being chased was getting closer and closer.

The archer tried to snipe the two people once more. However, before he could unleash the arrow from the bow, an [Earth Spike] showed up from the ground and pierced his hand, holding the bow. Then, a dagger slashed his back, followed with a stab to his heart.
