Archer skidded to a halt just before the rest of the group, pain coursing through his body. As he struggled to catch his breath, a single thought echoed in his mind, 'Ah, damn it! I bit off more than I could chew.'
As the moment unfolded, the Pseudo-God approached, his wicked grin stretching wider. But before he could react, Ari leaned down, her gaze soft yet intense. She cupped his cheek gently, her voice low but filled with praise. ''You did well, husband. Especially for someone at my level.''
''I just need to get even stronger than this won't be an issue, beautiful,'' he replied with a chuckle.
Following that, Ari vanished and appeared in front of the shocked enemy, but the older woman quickly hit him with a Mana Blast. The sudden attack sent him crashing across the ground.
