Chester knew that despite not being related by blood to Dax, the two of them were closer than brothers. How could he watch Dax die at the hands of these generals just like that?
Yet as the figures soared into the air, a good number of generals were seen exploding forward to stop him in mid-air.
"Brother…"
Chester let out a howl, tears springing from his eyes.
At the same time, Debra cried out as well. "No…" Just like Chester, she had wanted to help Dax, but was also stopped by the soldiers and could only watch.
Just as Dax was about to be killed, a strong aura came exploding over. It was followed by a charming figure rushing out into the battlefield and throwing herself right in front of Dax.
The long dress she was clad in only further highlighted her perfect curves, but her gaze glinted with fierce determination.
It was Rachelle, whom Master Magaera had previously captured and brought over with him.
Just then, Rachelle bit her lip as she summoned her powers to cast a good number of blows that sent the soldiers before her stumbling backwards, before turning to say to Dax, "Quick, stop the bleeding."
Master Magaera had prioritized taking down Antigonus the second he got here, and neglected Rachelle in the process.
To him, this woman had powers but she did not know how to use them. Also her acupoint had been blocked, and her escaping would not be a problem to worry about at all.
Yet what Master Magaera did not know was that Darryl had taught Rachelle how to use the chant to summon powers, and thus upon being left to her own affairs Rachelle had begun to try summoning her powers to unblock her acupoint.
And at last, Rachelle had succeeded at doing so. Seeing Dax at the brink of death, she did not hesitate before striking. To tell the truth, she did not know Dax at all— but Master Magaera had captured and tormented her for no good reason, and she would do anything to get back at him.
Just then, even Dax himself was slightly confused at Rachelle's words.
What was going on? Who was this lady, and why was she helping me?
Also… how could she, a mere mortal being, have powers?
At the same time, Chester and Debra stopped short as well.
