Chapter 112: Where Did He Come From?!I heard a ring echo throughout the barrel before I was sent flying.

    ("HOLYYYY!!") [Solace] Sёarch* The novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    I swore in my mind as I felt all my bones rattle. The amount of air pressure pushing down on me made it feel like I couldn''t breathe.

    "You have acquired |Experience|. |Temperance| has gained a level." [Spirit Guide]

    ("I CAN''T SEE!!") [Solace]

    My lips and eyelids fluttered and flapped like one of those cartoons. Never had I imagined such a thing would ever happen to me.

    ("Are my clothes still there?!") [Solace]

    I could barely feel my clothing from all the air rushing past me, so I hoped they didn''t tear off. Other than that, I still needed to breathe.

    ("The pressure is so high!") [Solace]

    I grit my teeth as I tried to raise my arms to serve as cover. I struggled quite a bit, but I somehow managed.

    ("There we go.") [Solace]

    With my arms now blocking the airflow, I took a long deep breath.

    ("Now, where am I?") [Solace]

    Looking downwards, I saw my environment change quickly. Ten seconds ago, I could''ve sworn I saw the dwarf town before soaring over a forest.

    ("Was that Armdale? I must be close to Fina''s school then.") [Solace]

    That was when I had a sudden realization.

    ("How am I supposed to land?!") [Solace]

    Knowing the amount of force I was carrying, I wouldn''t be surprised if I went splat the moment I hit the ground.

    ("|Reinforce|!") [Solace]

    "You have acquired |Experience|. |Reinforce| has gained a level." [Spirit Guide]

    ("Oh wow, I haven''t seen that level up in a while- wait no! Concentrate!") [Solace]

    |Reinforce| was just a safety measure. I had no clue if that was enough to keep me alive.

    ("Maybe if I use martial arts?") [Solace]

    As I had that thought, I saw something approaching from the corner of my eye.

    ("Huh? What''s that?") [Solace]

    Focusing in on the object, my eyes widened in fear.

    ("Jukhan?!") [Solace]

    The man who had been victim to my Master was barreling towards me. How was he catching up to me? I had no clue, and that terrified me.

    "I can sense you, you little twerp! I''m going to rip your head off!" [Jukhan]

    His voice boomed loud enough for me to hear clearly over the deafening wind.

    ("Oh dear gods...") [Solace]

    I saw this man kicking off the air, slowly inching ever closer.

    ("This guy''s a monster! He''s literally flying using brute force!") [Solace]

    Seeing that, I knew I had to slow him down.

    "|Liquid Barrage|!" [Solace]

    Firing a ton of water bullets at Jukhan, he simply shrugged it off.

    "Don''t insult me with such measly skills!" [Jukhan]

    He seemed more pissed off considering that he was accelerating.

    ("Really?!") [Solace]

    Lightning suddenly appeared around his body, causing him to suddenly appear next to me.

    "Caught you." [Jukhan]

    "...Well shi-" [Solace]

    So I ate a knuckle sandwich.

    "Agh!" [Solace]

    "You have gained |Experience|. |Temperance| has gained a level." [Spirit Guide]

    I was sent spiraling down into a random street. My vision blurred as I tried to get up, which had me recognizing that I was near the school. By "near the school", I meant in the middle of a plaza with plenty of random people staring at me with confusion.

    ("No time to think, run!") [Solace]

    I immediately picked myself up and sprinted with this weird limping form. Unfortunately, I was slammed back into the ground from behind.

    "Urgh!" [Solace]

    I felt a heavy weight on me, keeping me pinned down.

    "Trying to run, whelp?" [Jukhan]

    He pressed a foot down on my back, forcing me to cough out blood.

    ("Oh that ain''t good...") [Solace]

    That was the first time I coughed out blood. Let me tell you this; it wasn''t a good feeling.

    "Stop right there!" [???]

    A female voice shouted at Jukhan, along with the sound of many footsteps.

    "Hm?" [Jukhan]

    I turned my head to see a red haired woman and a squad of people wearing red and gold armor. Each one held a spear and shield, along with a sword strapped to their waists.

    "I am Eris Reid, captain of the Crimson Knight Order! I command you to stand down!" [Red Haired Woman]

    Jukhan lifted his foot off of me and turned to the knights, lightning crackling menacingly.

    "Make me." [Jukhan]

    The woman gripped her spear, causing flames to encircle her body.

    "As you wish." [Eris Reid]
