Chapter 122- Desperate Efforts

'I cannot live a single day without you' you say but doesn't it go both ways? How dumb can you be to use your life to save mine?... Lisa thought as she looked at the man who was desperate to save her.

BANG… Chuck couldn't deflect the [Electro Bolt] in time and it squarely hit him on his back. His whole body shuddered for a moment and his wounds kept getting worse but he still hugged her lithe body and didn't let go.

At this moment, the determination flashing in his eyes was so bright that it burned like magma.

Two more spells came targeting Lisa, but none of them were even able to touch her as Chuck use his body to shield her from everything. The enemies knew that he was trying to protect the woman in his embrace and hence deliberately targeted her.

Another spell took shape but before the mage could cast the spell, he was cut down in half by a swing of Chuck's sword.
