Chapter 519 Pity

"Watch out!" Rocky immediately lowered Sabina's body while his arms were around her waist and protected her body with his.

Rocky's reflexes were almost as swift as the flock of vultures diving towards them. But because of this, some of the vultures ended up swiping his back with their sharp talons.

In the blink of an eye, his back was badly mangled with blood. He released the evil spiritual power a bit too late, causing him to fall one step behind the vultures.

It wasn't until then that Sabina realized that Rocky wasn't drawing her closer to him to take advantage of her. It was to protect her. With the amount of strength she had, she was ready to take on the vultures before they could attack.

"Go, Duchess Silver!" As she noticed that they were surrounded by vultures, Sabina's expression changed drastically. Not risking carelessness, she called out for Duchess Silver.

Duchess Silver moaned deeply as it raised its head. It rushed swiftly towards the vultures like an arrow released from its bow.

The vultures, however, were relentless in their chase.

But Duchess Silver was able to drive them away thanks to its speed.

"Are you alright?" Sabina asked Rocky who still held her when they managed to get to safety.

"Don't worry. It isn't fatal." The calm façade he tried to put on was broken by the twist of pain that spread across his face.

Worried, Sabina ordered Duchess Silver to land at once.

"Can you get your hands back?" Sabina asked assertively as Duchess Silver began to land.

With a bitter smile, Rocky did as she said. Unfortunately, the injuries on his back caused him to lose his balance. His whole body trembled before falling from Duchess Silver's back to the ground below.

Seeing this startled Sabina.

ined through gritted teeth. But as the magical saliva began to work, the coolness it provided canceled out the sting his wounds brought.

Hearing his complaint, Sabina smiled as if the gentlest wind just caressed her face. However, it left as quickly as it came.

The magical saliva worked tremendously. Most of Rocky's wounds had already healed and he could even move freely now.

"We have to learn to be more careful next time. The Myriad Beasts Ground is full of hidden dangers. We'll never know what we may encounter next," Rocky uttered with narrowed eyes. Looking back on what had just happened, he knew that they wouldn't be as lucky the next time. The only other time Rocky considered himself lucky was when he had the mysterious woman named Cherry to help him. Rocky was fully aware of Sabina's power—the preliminary level of the Supernal Stage. However, this didn't matter when they were in the Myriad Beasts Ground where she could protect herself at most. It would be a challenge to protect someone else in this stage.

Only one word was fit to describe the Myriad Beasts Ground, a horrific and dangerous place—that was hell. Danger and crisis were infinite here.
