Mika was about to transform.
[Wait.]
"?"
He stopped midway, having a confused expression on his face.
[Before you transform, I would recommend you to listen to me first.]
"What is there to talk about now of all times?" Mika whispered.
Harik and Rachel, who were also ready for combat, looked at Mika.
[The information you received concerning the new installment may have covered most things but I still want you to listen to me carefully.]
"..."
Clara, the demon who went after Mika and the rest, did not wait and raised her hand.
"Everyone, watch out!" Mika shouted.
She flicked her hand up.
But Mika's instincts told him to jump back immediately.
At the same time, he sensed something cutting and piercing the air.
Clara twisted her hand slightly and swung it to her right side.
"!"
"Ugh...!"
Mika received a few fine slashes on his left arm while Harik's stomach was slashed.
