Release That Succubus

Chapter 241 [Bonus ] 241 Rescue



Unfortunately, the other party had no reason to show up in front of him when they had the advantage of surprise attack.

While Jack was waiting for the enemy, something flashed in front of his eyes almost blinding him momentarily. Even though he had been locked up for a long time, he still had his animalistic instinct intact. He could easily distinguish when an attack was aimed at his life and when the opponent released their killing intent.

Using his senses, he barely managed to dodge the attack launched from the shadows at the last moment.

Shivers ran through his spine as he did because even though he had moved his head to the side in time, there was still a finger sized cut on his cheek that went quite deep. The attack was even faster than it looked. Had he stayed in place, his head would have been chopped off clean by that single strike from the enemy.

Jack couldn’t help but curse at meeting such a powerful opponent. Cold sweat dripped down his face as he didn’t have the confidence to face the opponent. Based on the earlier strike, the difference between the two parties wasn’t much which meant that the enemy had just as equal chance of killing him off as he did of killing them.

Jack had been brought up amidst danger; he had learned to survive in the harshest of environments where even a piece of bread had to be fought over. He had risen from dust and had reached this far because he had become strong enough to stand on his own. His ability to overcome his fear and adapt was truly exceptional.

As such, Jack took a few deep breaths as he stared right in the direction of the first attack. He was not so gullible as to think that the enemy hadn’t moved from their place. He just wanted to create an illusion of that to lure in another attack from the enemy. He needed to gauge their strength and to assess their position as well in order to draw them out.

As expected, another attack was launched but this one came from behind him. Being a combat expert, Jack had already commandeered the wind around him and was able to sense the slightest fluctuation in the wind. The disturbance caused by the attack immediately alerted Jack to the incoming danger and he managed to avoid a fatal attack.

At the same time, the wind pushed back in the direction that the attack had come from and revealed a lithe figure rushing through the shrubbery at such a fast speed that he could only perceive the shadowy figure for a second. Far from being able to guess who his enemy was, he couldn’t even see the face. The only thing he was able to discern was that the opponent seemed to be a woman who was quite pretty if one built up the logic based on her willowy figure.

With her element of surprise gone, the shadowy figure of the woman didn’t stay in a single place for long and began to run around Jack who was frozen in place due to the flurry of attacks coming his way randomly from all directions as if his opponent was switching places in the blink of an eye.

One moment she was right in front of him and the next she was launching an attack from the side. Although, he was already on the alert, it wasn’t easy for him to sense the attack beforehand because it consumed a lot of mana to control the wind element in the vicinity. It was getting more and more difficult for him to sense the fatal attacks.

As such he incurred some injuries due to minor mistakes. The speed of the attacks was beyond his ability to preempt them. As such he could only take risks and dodge them to the best of his ability. At the same time, he was burning his mana at a ridiculous pace in order to keep the wind element under his control.

If it had been a frontal battle, he would never have wasted this much mana from the get go. But the opponent had chosen a battle style that he found to be extremely troublesome. Unless he could lock the enemy in place, he would not be able to break out of this predicament.

After the analyzing the battlefield and dodging several more of the attacks from the shadows, Jack finally realized the essence of the problem he was facing. It wasn’t that the woman was capable of teleporting and launching attacks at the same time but that there wasn’t just one enemy he was facing. Based on the number of attacks being launched every few seconds, there were at least three individuals or maybe four sneakily attacking him at the same time while constantly moving around him.

Dread filled him to the bones and the sense of danger Jack had honed for several years amidst blood and bones began to alarm him of his incoming demise. As such he could only go all out in order to determine the identity of his attackers. Based on that information he would then decide whether to fight or to flee. His life was worth much more than any promises that the Hunter family might have made him. .𝘤𝘰𝑚

While being vigilant of his surroundings, Jack began to rush towards a higher vantage point. It was a small node at the top of the hill that was a bit higher than the ground. He reached for the top and released a burst of mana to push the wind outward in all directions.

The shockwave sent everything flying all around him with explosive strength that could even penetrate rocks.

Four figures were soon revealed as they were scattered all around him. There were only two that he recognized among them while the other two he had no idea about. The ones he knew included the impulsive sister of the girl he had kidnapped while the other was the prince who had tried to save that girl. Jack had previously spared him because he didn’t want to make an enemy of the royal family but Luke had delivered himself to him once again.
