Seeing Lilith escape with 5 of her men in tow made Reen's heart dread in despair, she hurriedly cut the man's throat that she was struggling with fueled by adrenaline.
She was now momentarily free and some of their other subordinates which unlike Reen who froze on the spot immediately assisted their fellow men.
Uoron who was nearest Reen and was since from the start observing Reen, saw her reaction on Lilith's escape and thus he could not help but feel anxious.
"Reen, you don't have to go. You don't have to do this on your own…" He said in a pleading voice while still struggling with the man he was fighting with.
Regardless of how skillful she was and how many she brings with her to kill Lilith, he wasn't assured. Their intelligence had previously failed them as there were more men than expected.
No matter how skillful Uoron and the men he brought along this mission were, it would still be a challenge when there was twice the number of men brought by Lilith. He didn't want to risk the chance that they met an ambush along the way so he continued to plead as he hurriedly tried to finish off the man he was fighting with.
The man knowing that he was distracted as of the moment made him attitude more fervent. He did dangerous and lethal strikes towards Uoron using his knife knowing that with Uoron's skill if he didn't take this opportunity he would truly die.
"There's still another chance, we can still find another way to kill her."
He said in a soothing voice or as much as he could sooth in this bloody chaotic murderous moment. Reen looked at him and the now vanishing back of the vile woman.
It was at this time that fate made her to choose…
"After experiencing a broken heart and a series of unfortunate events, I remembered everything. I planned, strategize and bid my time again and again just to get this opportunity." She lamented biting her lips very much as blood drip from it while defending herself and killing the men rushing towards her. She was still staring at the path they fled in while doing so.
"Should I forgive and forget everything for now and wait for another opportunity…?" She clenched her hand as the grip onto the knife she was holding tightened.
As she was thinking these things, her distracted mind did not stop her body from killing all the people who wanted to harm her as though her body had its own mind.
As she was thinking so, the familiar metallic feeling behind her throat resurface and before she could stop it she vomited blood, rejoicing on the unfortunate girl the man attacking her thought he had finally succeeded and despite his exhausted body continued his fervent attack at her.
He did not want to defeated here, it was not merely because of Lilith's order and his fear for his life but it was also because his pride as a hot blooded man. How could he who was a full grown man be subdued and killed by the hands of this puny and delicate young lady. His pride made him stubborn to the extreme gaining him more power in this struggling fight with her.
He put all his strength into that one strike as Reen staggered and half kneeled on the floor while covering her mouth as she had one of her coughing fit.
Uoron, Hue and Wisteria who had half their attention towards her could not help but feel scared and become pale faced seeing this scene.
