As I felt my body abruptly shutting down from the blood stings that Drakzen managed to land on me, he hit me with a shadow bolt that pushed me back a few meters and made me land on my back.
Drakzen implied that his blood was poisonous, but it felt much more potent than anything I had experienced.
Still, I kept my composure as I struggled to get on my knees, prompting the devil to rush towards me again with his blade high in the air.
When Drakzen stood before me, he grinned evilly and prepared himself to execute me. However, his expression changed when he noticed I wasn't the least bit bothered by him.
In the split second that Drakzen waved his sword down, my dearest companion, Yoru, materialized from my shadow in his humanoid form, extruding a powerful aura from his body and deflecting the devil's blade with his claws.
