Chapter 140: Leave or Die!

While vines sprouted from the nearby trees to slow and snare the bandits circling the party and the two swordsmen were gradually forced back without damaging their opponents, Oli was targeted by the masked man.

A simple sword appeared in the masked man's hand. It jutted toward Oli's torso as the ape-like man was about to pound into the battlefield. 

"Show me-- Oh?"

To the masked man's surprise, Oli turned in the air and grabbed the sword with one of his arms of essence. Oli's second arm plowed straight into the man's mask. The man flew straight down as Oli stomped into him for added damage.

The surrounding bandits were shocked by the quick exchange. One shouted, "La--"

"Shut up! You fools!"

The dust cleared for all to see Oli standing firmly on the ground as Lakd stood a couple of krin to the side. Though Lakd's mask was half-gone he now wielded two swords, one with a bead of fresh blood still on the blade.
