Chapter 712

At that moment, Barrett was gripped by the fear of impending death.

Memories of his first battle at Victory Pass flooded his mind, when enemies had surrounded him and he nearly succumbed to their blades. Wyatt Sullivan had saved him, sacrificing an arm in the process.

That day, Barrett had also been fraught with the terror of dying.

As he was lost in thought, Barrett was suddenly kicked to the ground. Panic surged as he caught sight of a glinting blade rushing toward him. He rolled away desperately, tumbling until he landed at Eleanor’s feet.

Barrett seized the sword’s blade with both hands, hoping to use its momentum to rise, but the household soldiers were already closing in.
