In front of me, I saw Cage and the two others scattered across the ground, dead. Their bodies had fell victim to Jeredal's lethal poison.
That wasn't why I was horrified though. What I was really focused on was Jeredal with a sword driven through his chest who was lifting Risa in the air, choking her.
"You know… I don't usually struggle against weaklings like you, especially a healer. You heroes are really something else. A shame that I didn't get to fight all of you since a part of my army is already dealing with the two groups."
He brandished his dagger in front of Risa before inching towards her neck.
"Maybe my father will finally look my way once I tell him I killed a hero and bring your corpse to him. Yeah, that's going to be nice," Jeredal chuckled which then escalated into laughter.
"No… you can't!"
I got up but fell as I lost all feeling in my left leg. I was immobilized. Fuck. I can't move at full speed with only one leg.
