Taniel, who knew well the terror of a five-tier 'professional', found it hard not to be tense.
"If it's a five-tier 'professional', a conservative estimate would be that you could hold out for half an hour!"
"But now it seems... Maybe a few minutes at most."
Lorde's words made Taniel's heart sink.
The situation was far worse than what this Deer Academy teacher and the second advisor of the Lorde Police Department had estimated.
Luodeni also wore a helpless expression.
Against one five-tier 'professional', he was confident he could go down with them.
But against two five-tier 'professionals'?
It would be a random choice ranging from minor to severe injuries.
Huff!
"Next..."
"It depends on fate."
Lorde took a deep breath and said this.
He took out a scroll once more, waiting for the moment when the door would be smashed open.
Lorde was never one to sit still and wait for death.
So, he turned to look at Taniel.
"Can you hold off one for me?"
Lorde asked.
