Erin smiled but kept mum.

Meanwhile, Jeremiah, who had yelled earlier, was nearing Darius. The latter made use of his advanced hearing to track Jeremiah’s footsteps. Once he determined Jeremiah was within his attack range, he dashed ahead and kicked Alvin.

Alvin did not expect Darius to do that. Then again, Alvin couldn’t defend himself even if he anticipated the kick. Thus, he flew a distance away, landing on the ground next to Jeremiah with a blow.

Not a squeak came from Alvin, who blacked out immediately after. The only thing proving he was still alive was his subtle breaths.
