Upon successfully capturing Matthew, Elijah's smile remained unchanged, but he secretly switched to the abilities of a strength-type zombie.
With lightning speed, his other hand struck toward Matthew's head.
Matthew, who had been feeling triumphant, was completely unprepared for Elijah's sudden attack.
However, his reaction was incredibly quick, either due to mimicking some speed-enhancing ability or sheer instinct.
He swiftly ducked, narrowly avoiding Elijah's punch!
Yet Elijah, having undergone combat training with Charlotte, had a wealth of experience in close-quarters combat.
The moment Matthew ducked, Elijah's knee shot upward.
Matthew's chin collided intimately with Elijah's knee, making it seem as if Matthew had delivered himself to Elijah.
A dull thud resounded as a coppery sheen spread over Matthew's skin. Elijah felt as if he had struck a solid wall of copper.
