"Has Fane lost his mind? He's insane right now, he has to be, for trying to take on that phoenix! Does he think he can kill a spring solidifying realm beast?"
"He's done for... Fane won't survive this at all! He was way too cocky in wanting to face a spring solidifying realm beast, even if he's a credible alchemist!"
Bradley snorted at this. Fane, to him, was a dead man already; he could never survive going up against a phoenix.
Forget surviving the encounter-Fane would just die with the swipe of a talon!
Elder Maurice was near tears at this point, overridden with anxiety. He was close to rushing in to save Fane.
The deacons that were standing guard, meanwhile, were all stunned as well. They were responsible for ensuring the participants' safety, which meant that they would be liable if anything happened to Fane.
However, Fane's actions exceeded their expectations. He actively chose to go toward the beast!
Alas, Fane cared not what the others were thinking; he focused solely on the phoenix before him. In just a flash, he was less than a meter from it.
The black sword in his hand swung forward, just in time as the phoenix swung its sharp talons. In the
eyes of the phoenix was immense disdain, feeling like Fane was too desperate to meet his maker.
One swipe, and that man was done for-the phoenix knew that much!
