"Hmm..." Haruto furrowed his brow, looking back with a serious expression. There, the girl who had previously asked about the arrows was now preparing her bow. Next to her was another girl Haruto recognized, along with Annie, who was also there, observing intently.
"Two initial attackers with excellent speed and agility, then supported by one attacker with flexibility, agility, and speed, as well as another attacker who has great striking power despite lacking agility..." Haruto spoke quickly, providing a sharp analysis that surprised everyone with the details he had noticed.
Suddenly, William was in front of Haruto, ready to launch an attack. William swung his sword with full force, but Haruto quickly parried the attack with his own sword.
However, at the same time, Harl thrust his spear towards Haruto. Haruto immediately tilted his body to dodge, but an arrow flew from behind, forcing Haruto to block the spear that was almost hitting him.
With a swift movement, Haruto pulled Harl towards him, using the momentum to strike Harl, but Harl quickly blocked the blow with agility. Oliv, not wanting to miss the opportunity, immediately tried to attack from the side with a knife in hand. With no time to dodge, Haruto kicked Harl towards Oliv, creating space for himself.
At that moment, Jae Hyun appeared from another direction and launched an additional attack. Haruto, with an annoyed expression, jumped back to avoid the attack, but that only brought him back to face William, who was waiting there.
William, with a quick movement, launched an attack towards Haruto. Pressured, Haruto parried the attack, but the force of William's strike pushed Haruto back, although he remained standing.
At that moment, Haruto felt that something was off. He quickly realized that someone was behind him. Haruto tried to dodge, but it was too late. A powerful kick aimed at his body sent Haruto crashing hard against the wall.
Haruto stepped back, his eyes widening in shock as he recognized who had just kicked him—Annie. Annie stood tall, her sharp gaze calm and composed. Seeing Annie made Haruto frown, a sense of caution beginning to emerge.
"Extraordinary speed... an aura that is hard to detect, strong and trained legs," Haruto murmured as he assessed Annie in a matter of seconds. Although impressed, there was an implied tension on Haruto's face as he looked at Annie with an unreadable expression.
Sweeping his gaze over the seven people with Annie, Haruto smiled faintly, but his mind continued to work. Haruto's eyes shifted to the two girls guarded by Annie. One of the girls held a bow, while the other seemed familiar, though vaguely in Haruto's mind.
"Hmm..." Haruto pondered for a moment, mapping out the situation. After a while, Haruto moved slowly, taking careful steps.
"Let's continue," he murmured with a serious expression.
However, before Haruto could approach Annie, someone blocked his path—William. Without a word, William launched a quick attack, slashing towards Haruto's neck with his sword. Haruto deftly parried the slash, their swords clashing with a loud sound.
Not wasting any time, William swung his sword again, but Haruto caught William's arm and spun his body, trying to slash at William again. At that moment, a spear shot from the other side, aimed at Haruto's abdomen. Haruto dodged as quickly as possible, but the tip of the spear still tore through the side of Haruto's shirt, leaving a small rip.
Responding to the relentless attacks, Haruto quickly spun around and delivered a kick towards William. Although William managed to block the kick, the force of Haruto's attack pushed William back.
