I second this. Not only leaving me on the edge of my seat the entire chapter, but now I grit my teeth after rereading it in anticipation for what's next.
Loved the fight and seeing the knifes debut. Still looking forward to him using the offensive Thilku rune he made (blew threw multiple training halls as a level 3 with it in chapter 678) in battle. I was almost sure he was gonna pull it out here.
Eve you always manage to find a way to keep me on the edge of my seat. Even after reading Demonic Sword twice over, I still am dumbfounded with how you do it. Bravo!
