Howard was greatly alarmed. In his opinion, the person whom he had intercepted was likely the strongest among the seven.
Although he didn't like his sister-in-law very much, for Justin's sake, he couldn't let her get hurt either.
Was that guy running up to Nora to take her hostage and force everyone into retreating?
What bad luck!
He knew it, women were trouble. Why did she have to come?
As soon as the thought formed, he stepped forward to rush over. But his leg had only just reached out when he saw the man reaching towards Nora.
At some point, there was already a dagger in his hand. He jabbed it right at Nora's neck.
"Don't move! Or I'll—"
But before he could say "kill her", Nora had suddenly stretched out her hand, grabbed his wrist, and exerted a little force.
Crack!
The dagger in the man's hand fell to the ground, and his wrist emitted a crisp snap.
