Chapter 40: The Fall of the Saint (2)

Ron put the staff back into the ring and walked towards the door step by step.

Although he seemed to be walking normally, Ron's spirit was already tense to the extreme.

He couldn't let Irelia get involved. Although Ron was confident in his current strength, he was still not sure he could protect Irelia if attacked by three killers.

What's more, there is also an inspector from the Church of Eternal Freedom.

So he asked Irelia to stay in the lobby, just for a moment.

Click.

Click!

The sound of crisp footsteps.

Ron's body finally walked out of the door of Odysseus's Weapon Shop.

Almost at the same time, a dazzling white light suddenly flashed above the attic opposite.

Buzz! The sharp sword blade tore through the air.

It no longer looked like a person stabbing out with a sword, but more like the sword was driving the person to soar. In an instant, Ron's eyes were divided into two distinct layers, upper and lower.

In the attic, Hermann was shaking with excitement.

The inexplicable excitement even gave him goose bumps all over his body. He was breathing heavily like a lunatic, his eyes were wide open and his eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.

It's over.

Ron was dead.

No one knew better than Herman how terrifying Eden's Space Slash was.

The most terrifying thing is that Eden never acts alone. When he works together with Marty the Bone-Eviscerating Knife and Simon the Bloody Axe, they can form a sure-kill situation. Even those who are one level stronger than Eden, such as three or four-star disaster-level people, are likely to die on the spot.

Ron's strength is good, but he is only a disaster star at best.

With such an advantage, Hermann really couldn't think of any possible unexpected events.

He couldn't wait to see the blood spurting from Ron's throat.

…

Space Slash Eden! Sure enough, these three lackeys who have always been following Herman.

Eden's sword was just too fast.

Eden used the power of wind to the extreme, as if he had become the incarnation of wind. It was not the power of space, but the speed that was too fast, which created the illusion of teleportation.

There was a cold light in front of his eyes, which kept expanding, expanding, and expanding... It hadn't attacked Ron's body yet, but Ron even felt a subtle pain in his eyes.

"careful……"

At this moment, Irelia's scream suddenly came from behind.

Irelia, who had been staring at Ron, did not stay in the hall obediently as Ron had instructed. Her eyes were always on Ron.

The moment she saw that flash of cold light, her body was enveloped by a bone-chilling cold.

Her mind went blank, and Irelia had no time to think at all. As if it was pure instinct, her body had already taken action before her brain could think.

The flying silver hair looks like a pure white butterfly, and the open arms are its fragile wings.

Irelia didn't even have time to realize where her strength came from, or to consider what would happen to her. She was moving faster than ever before.

Chant: Favor of the Wind! She didn't chant any spells, but the power of the chant emerged on its own!

The sharp wind rushed into my eyes and ears, causing a burning pain.

Her slender body was weak and fragile, yet she stood in front of Ron stubbornly with her arms open, as if she wanted to use her chest to block the sword light that was about to pierce through her body in the next moment.

At this moment, Ron's body trembled slightly.

Ron had known for a long time that Herman was planning to assassinate him, and he even guessed who the three killers would be... At least, Ron was not afraid of these three killers. He believed that he could easily get rid of them. This was not a danger to him. The real danger was the inspector general of the Eternal Freedom Sect.

However, the sight of Irelia standing in front of him without hesitation still made him tremble slightly.

For the first time in such a long time, Ron felt a different kind of affection for this girl with whom he had pleasured more than once.

Ron stopped the original extreme dodge.

He could dodge it, but Irelia couldn't.

He raised his left hand and grabbed the sword... He didn't know if it was Ron's illusion, but he always felt that Eden's speed had become extremely slow, as if it was in slow motion.

The power of the chant made up for Ron's lack of speed.

Everything actually happened in just a brief moment, about half a second?

Seeing Irelia standing in front of Ron, Eden frowned slightly, but the sword had been unsheathed and could not be retracted.

At this moment, Eden suddenly saw Ron's left hand raised up at some point and grabbed the tip of the sword.

You actually want to grab his sword with your hands?

Idiot, you are looking for death! Not only Eden, but even Odysseus thought that Ron was finished.

The eye-piercing sword light has proved Eden's strength. He is a master with extremely terrifying strength. Even Master Odysseus is not sure that he can take this sword. He is a disaster-level two-star master.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

And Ron was just a weak priest! Hiss... Crunch! The next moment, a strange sound came.

Eden's figure finally appeared in front of Ron and Irelia. He stopped, and the smug grin on his face gradually became stiff, replaced by indescribable horror and distortion.

There was deathly silence all around. The originally bustling street seemed to have fallen into a strange time standstill at this moment. There was no sound at all, and everyone's eyes just stared blankly at Ron's left hand.

Use your thumb and index finger to pinch the sharp tip of the sword!

Such relaxed and leisurely movements, it seems like he is just having fun!

No one can describe the shock in one's heart. Pinching the tip of the sword and grasping the sword body are completely different concepts. If this scene was not happening right before one's eyes, who could believe it?

Are you just a weak priest?

Since when did the priest's physical skills become so powerful? How can warriors, knights, thieves and other people who rely on physical skills survive?

Irelia finally came back to her senses, her face turned pale instantly, and her body trembled irregularly. Ron gently patted Irelia's head with his right hand, his fingers sliding along the silky silver hair, and a gentle voice sounded in Irelia's ears:

"It's okay, Irelia, it's okay..."

Everyone around was shocked by the sight of Ron holding the tip of Eden's sword with his bare hands, and could not make a sound. Only Ron smiled gently, stroking Irelia's long hair, and calming the fear in Irelia's heart.

At this moment, the thick fog that had been shrouding Ron's heart dissipated silently.

Is Ron really in love with Irelia?

Matters of the heart are complicated, and even Ron himself doesn't know what he really thinks deep down.

In Ron's eyes, the relationship between him and Irelia was more like a series of coincidences driven by some mysterious force. Although he had enjoyed himself with Irelia more than once, that was not love.

It's not even Irelia's one-sided love. If Irelia knew the truth, would she still love me as deeply as before?

Maybe not.

Ron reminded himself more than once that this was just a game... Although he had been in this world for many days, Ron had never truly integrated into this world, and had never even made any effort in this regard.

But at this moment, Ron's mind changed.

This isn't a game... this is a real, flesh-and-blood world.

The woman who appeared before him was the one who loved him deeply and was willing to give up everything for him.

Irelia could feel Ron's gaze, which made her feel warm and as if she was surrounded by happiness... This feeling of happiness had appeared before, but it was like a dream bubble that only made Irelia afraid, as if it could disappear at any time.

But now, the warmth of happiness reached Irelia's heart and her soul.
