Hunter's Resolve

"We need to find cover fast! ," Jarren while escaping "We can't keep running out in the open like this." 

Both of them decided to stick to the road, well aware that jumping from one building to another would be too eye-catching. 

Such a feat would generate too much shockwaves, essentially painting a target on their backs for a demon lord like Reign to easily track them down.

The blond hunter named Marlon nodded, his face pale and filled with pain. "There—an alley up ahead."

"Alright… But are you okay?" Jarren asked, glancing back at his teammate, who was struggling to keep up.

"I'll manage," Marlon replied through gritted teeth. 

He clutched his side, wincing with every step as the pain from his wounds and broken ribs had slowed him down. 

His rune regenerative abilities had already activated, but since it was of lower quality and he hadn't fully absorbed it like Nekola, its effect wasn't as powerful.
