Chapter 282

• "Cursed be all of you, the righteous ones," he observed his defeated friends. "I think I'll have to retreat," he said, starting to run away. However, it was too late. I had the ability to teleport, and in an instant, I appeared in front of him. I noticed his face had turned pale, as if he had seen death itself.
• "It seems you are quite afraid, and I understand. It's not easy to face a captain like me, with the power that I possess. So, with just one strike, I ended all your suffering," I said, forming a crystal coffin around him from head to toe. Seconds later, it shattered into a thousand pieces. Finally, victorious in this battle, I felt completely drained. My body was battered, and as I collapsed to the ground, I saw the wind blowing fiercely, my body bleeding out. Despite being the winner, the battle had been tough. I felt completely exhausted, and as I struggled, all I could see was darkness.
• I needed to know what had happened to my other companions. If they were in such conditions, I needed to find them. As I pondered this, I heard a voice approaching me. I didn't want to worry them, but the situation demanded it. I had never fought against such powerful foes before, and even though I had emerged victorious, I knew the battle had taken its toll.
