As Jared was briefly absorbed in his conversation with the Vermillion Demon Lord, a sudden chill crept up his spine.
Turning, he found Abel directly behind him, his long knife poised to strike, moving as stealthily as a shadow.
“Go to hell!” Abel snarled, his face twisted in fury.
The fact that Jared had crippled one of Abel's arms earlier fueled his desire for revenge.
The wild aura radiating from Abel's blade was aimed to cleave Jared in two.
Although Skylar had claimed Jared as his own target, Abel couldn't suppress his resentment. He had noticed Jared's momentary distraction and seized the chance to attack from behind.
Jared, sensing the ambush, reacted with an icy smirk, neither turning nor dodging.
As Abel's long sword collided with Jared, a burst of golden light flared up, his invincible Golem Body blocking the blow. Yet, due to an earlier crack, the force of the strike caused the Golem Body to shatter.
Abel's eyes lit up as he thought Jared was finally vulnerable. He followed through with his swing, striking Jared's shoulder directly, only to find his blade halted, leaving no mark on him.
The triumphant grin froze on Abel's face as he gaped at Jared, whose body was unscathed.
The realization that Jared's physical resilience alone could withstand his attack left Abel stunned.
“You're really a worthless fool,” Jared sneered, turning to face him. “Without my armor, you still can't touch me.”
Seeing this, Skylar shouted, “Back off! Jared's body is tempered. There's no way you can harm him!”
