The Hornapeus was fast but Laim was faster, he covered one of his dagger in mana and threw it. The dagger disappeared inches from him and appeared in front of the monster who twisted nimbly midair to avoid it. Even then, the dagger sliced a thinly on its forehead.
"A shame," Liam said and stretched his palm forward, from where the dagger was stuck it disappeared and appeared on his hand again. "I was aiming for your forehead."
The monster wiped the blood from its forehead and licked it with a tongue that looked like rough leather. It made a gargling sound and its face turned angry. When it growled, it was deeper and sounded like a challenge.
"Why are they waiting?" Belialthorn raised his brows at Eleanor. He meant the monsters surrounding them.
Eleanor looked at him as if he was the annoying monster and jerked her head back at the small monster. Alaric saw the two of them and shrugged.
