Fwip!
"These bastards...!"
Aestrea clenched the hilt of his sword.
He tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword, ready for whatever came next.
With a quick jump back, he barely avoided the swipe of a vine—
But another one shot out from behind him.
Instinctively, he twisted his body, using a Fosbury flop move to dodge the attack.
He landed hard on the ground, and then his eyes glowed intensely.
"Moonlit Ice Lotus Sword Art..."
He bent down his body...
『 Third Move! (✦ Moonlight's One Flash ✦) 』
FWOOP!
In the blink of an eye, he vanished into thin air.
Then—
SPLURT!
"GURAARGGHHH!"
The three grotesque creatures let out a howl of pain as a deep, diagonal cut appeared across their rotten chests.
Aestrea's eyes lit up.
"A solid hit!"
Snap!
『 Bleed 』
SPLURT!
The wound deepened, tearing open as blood sprayed out in a violent gush, splattering the ground.
"GRAAGH!"
One of the creatures shrieked, stumbling backward as the blood flowed freely.
