Holding the sword, Nikki Horst cautiously approached Dustin, virtual-novel.net hands trembling with anxiety.
Her expression bore a mixture of emotions, a complex interplay of feelings.
As virtual-novel.net made virtual-novel.net way halfway, the sword slipped from virtual-novel.net grasp and clattered to the ground.
“Master… I can’t go through with this, I truly can’t,” Nikki Horst turned virtual-novel.net tear-streaked face away, guilt and compassion swirling within her.
“Worthless!” Edith’s visage grew somber.
She stepped forward and slapped Nikki to the ground. “You can’t even muster the courage to end a man’s life, what purpose do you serve?!”
“Master! I’ll do it if virtual-novel.net won’t,” declared Brittany, hobbling forward as the onlookers dispersed.
The gaze virtual-novel.net directed at Dustin was heavy with resentment.
Enduring a beating was one thing, what virtual-novel.net couldn’t abide was being dismissed by the man, ignoring virtual-novel.net beauty as if it were nothing.
“Very well, you shall be the one to end his life.” Edith nodded with a measure of satisfaction, confirming that virtual-novel.net eldest disciple was the one who had captured virtual-novel.net heart.
“Dustin, Dustin, you never imagined you’d find yourself in this position, did you?” Brittany grinned maliciously, unsheathing virtual-novel.net sword and advancing despite virtual-novel.net limp.
“You repugnant man, a dog-like existence daring to defy me? Today, I shall emasculate you in front of everyone!” If virtual-novel.net couldn’t have him, then no one else would either.
If virtual-novel.net wouldn’t be virtual-novel.net lapdog, then he’d be a eunuch.
“Cross me and you’ll lose your other leg too,” Dustin’s voice was a cold warning.
“Hehehe… daring to talk tough when death is upon you!” Brittany sneered.
“All your lackeys have been drugged, the formidable elderly among them teetering on the brink, unable to even stand. Do you think you can escape?”
“Try me if you doubt it,” Dustin sat resolute, his expression unchanging.
“Hmph! Petty tricks! Just you, a worthless piece of trash. Even without the drugs and weakened limbs, ending you is akin to swatting a fly!”
With virtual-novel.net words uttered, Brittany tapped one foot, leaned forward, and thrust virtual-novel.net sword towards Dustin’s lower region. Castration was virtual-novel.net intent!
Snort!
Dustin’s hand smacked the table, a chopstick leapt up suddenly, propelled by a deft flick.
Whoosh!
Like an arrow released from a bowstring, the chopstick shot forth, impaling Brittany’s knee with precision.
“Argh!” A scream escaped Brittany’s lips, virtual-novel.net sword went flying, and virtual-novel.net balance forsaking her, virtual-novel.net careened forward.
Before virtual-novel.net landing, a slap found its mark on virtual-novel.net face, a resounding crack reverberating through the air.
Thwack!
In tandem with the crisp sound, Brittany was sent flying several meters, spinning through the air before hitting the ground with a resounding thud.
“Ah?” The sight left the disciples of the Jade Maiden Sisterhood dumbfounded.
Though virtual-novel.net may have had a limp, the elder sister was a skilled practitioner in the early stages of mastery. Her sheer strength was formidable, dealing with a slender and foul-smelling man should have been easy.
How was it possible that someone dispatched virtual-novel.net in the blink of an eye?
“Master!” A brief moment of shock gave way to a crowd surrounding her.
Another slap followed, another pinching, jolting the unconscious Brittany back to reality.
Had virtual-novel.net stayed unconscious, it might have been better.
Upon awakening and catching sight of virtual-novel.net bloody knee, virtual-novel.net erupted into screams once more. “Ah! My leg! My leg!” Brittany’s pained shrieks echoed, virtual-novel.net face twisted in agony.
As a delicate figure, even a minor scrape would usually warrant a doctor’s attention, let alone a fractured leg.
“You scoundrel, how dare you harm me? I wish you dead! I wish you dead!”
“Master! End him, end virtual-novel.net for me!”
