"Aaaaaaah!"
When Renar couldn't suppress the pain coming from his right leg, he yelled. He released his grip on Viper's neck and caught his knee with both his hands after assuming a crouched position.
Renar had beads of sweat on his forehead that soon started to run down his face. He pressed his lips against each other and closed his eyes to deal with the pain. Then he opened his eyes and looked at Viper before saying in a shaky voice:
"That's it. My right leg is killing me. Viper, you go ahead. I'll catch up with you soon."
Renar wiped beads of sweat on his forehead from his shirt's right sleeve as he spoke. The Novice junior shook his head before commenting:
"Remember what you said, Renar. If we die, we die. But until that happens, focus on surviving. Haha!"
Viper said and flashed a cunning yet genuine smile on his face.
