Ryder waited for the impact on his shield. He knew that the shield wouldn't break, but he had fully expected to go back flying, crashing on the wall, but instead, he felt a wind brush past his ear.
Ryder opened his eyes and looked down. The first thing he saw was the feet, but these were actually feet, not skeleton feet. He moved his shield to the side and looked at the front. He couldn't help but smile as he saw a familiar back.
A person was standing before him. Their two beautiful wings were clearly visible. A powerful aura was surrounding that person. Ryder could see that person's hair. That, along with the clothes and the physique, made Ryder know who that person was without seeing their hair.
" Rale, Right on time," Ryder muttered as he looked at the back to give Rale enough space since he knew that Rale wouldn't attack at full force in fear of harming him. He was giving Rale freedom.
