Chapter 1392: Backstabbing

A mere acolyte charging fiercely alongside a group of humanoid metal puppets might seem nothing to the eyes of the half-blood magus, but the same could not be said to the acolytes who were on the brink of losing hope.

Jai Strider was one of the strongest acolytes in the Magus Academy. His position as one of the top 10 privileged acolytes supported such a statement. Not only that, for some keen observers like Jinkan, she realized Jai had brought his set of powerful artifacts with him.

This was good news, as this meant Jai had found where the dark elves kept their confiscated personal items.

Even though they looked unassuming at glance, each of the eight metal puppets were arguably as strong as the most powerful elite acolyte. There were also the two large puppets – the defenders – and the two slender puppets – the ranger and healer –, both of whom were comparable in strength to those of top 100 privileged acolytes.
