"Zayne... What's wrong with you?" Elin muttered in a confusion, "It's like you saw a ghost."
Zayne turned sharply as he was about to say something, but he froze when a dark silhouette appeared behind him.
Everyone got goosebumps from the eerie aura the silhouette spread, and Zayne, as if he felt the danger, held out his hand to Elin, trying to protect her.
Whoooooooooooosh.
The silhouette, in heartbeat, came between them as its crimson eyes stared at Elin, making her tremble with fear. Even as the silhouette hurriedly approached her, Elin could not even move from her spot.
"Away!" Roland exclaimed furiously, swinging his new sword. A blue flash passed right before the silhouette, rushing toward its neck.
The silhouette bent back, letting the long sword pass over itself, then it jumped away and stood a few meters in front of the group.
