134 Admitting defeat?

"Huff. Huff. We need to somehow get through. We are getting help. Someone is alive. We can do this!" Valen swung his broadsword around. There were only two more assassins alive now. They can do this.

He pushed forward with everything he had even though the injuries in his body hurt like hell. Then just like that another assassin died. Unfortunately, Rufus also died. Now it was just Valen, the healer and the last assassin.

"Checkmate!" Valen bellowed as he charged forward with his broadsword. This was going to be their victory!

However, at the last moment, another barrage of arrows shot forward and this time, the healer dropped down dead.

"Fuck!" Valen's eyes widened in shock. Was the new person, not an ally? This was going to infinitely complicate things. How should he deal with this?

Before he could think about anything, more arrows rained down.
