"There's no end to them. At this rate, I'm going to die by these ghouls! O, Lord! Please forgive me for acting arrogantly and rudely to my senior!"
However, there was no response. Zero's expression slightly changed to that of fear and his movements started to slow down as they become sluggish.
He panted really hard that you could hear his breath.
"Huff… huff…" Sweat flowed down as he halted his attacks and the creatures attacked him, or so he thought when he realized they were also stopped.
Zero narrowed his eyes upon the encounter and felt it odd. But he was delighted.
Since the enemies did not come at him, he might as well use the opportunity to deal some lethal blow to them or make a run for it.
Unfortunately, as soon as he had the intention and moved. The black shadow in humanoid figure creatures moved too.
