Murim Recurve

"Ugh," Re'Kha craned her left hand as she reached the handle of the door on the opposite side. It was hard, considering she had to keep watch over the sharp objects that hurt her. There were already nicks and scratches all over her body.

"Haah…haaah…" She gasped for breath upon finally grabbing hold of the handle, using it as a support to pull herself towards it. This gave her better stability, allowing her to pull her legs out from the cramped boot space.

The fight outside became bloodthirsty as the people became rabid dogs, intending to give a limb to claim a life. Even then, they fell like flies after inflicting some injuries to Chaya.

Re'Kha was unwilling to leave it as is, planning to escape first before she thought of a plan. She scrambled for her phone, finally finding it after some search as she noticed its screen had shattered.

The touchscreen was no longer functioning. All she was able to do was to see the time.

'There's still a lot of time until midnight.' Re'Kha was slightly worried now, hoping for a moment to hide within the car and wait it out. Though, the moment the thought hit her, she felt a chill stem from her heart.

For, the light from her phone caused the interior to become barely illuminated. And, thanks to the holes in the windshield, the radiance was apparent to Chaya who shot a glance in her direction.

'Idiot!' Re'Kha screamed at the instinctual reactions of her body. She could no longer dilly-dally, so she pulled herself and landed on the adjacent seat, craning her hands on the door as she silently unlocked it, opening it little by little to not garner the attention of anyone else.

Re'Kha peered out, noticing how only six people remained alive. But, they seemed to have been soaked up by the atmosphere, having long forgotten the fact that they could run away. But unfortunately for them, a lot of people they were emotionally attached towards had died.

They were all killed by Chaya. So, their hatred towards her ran deep. Moreover, they saw how she was staggering now, about to lose balance any movement. So, they didn't want to give up at this moment and planned to execute their revenge.

'Hiiik!' Re'Kha mentally screamed as she craned her leg out after opening the door a little. It seemed the accident had cracked some of her bones. For, she felt pain in her chest, hips, and her ankle.

She took in a sharp breath of air as Re'Kha touched her foot to the ground, feeling that she had enough strength to stand up and move away. Re'Kha stealthily moved out as her eyes looked around, noticing how the road was a straight path without many distractions.

And, it seemed the people in the buildings situated farther away hadn't heard of the commotion that had happened. After all, the street wasn't crowded like other parts of the city, to keep the serenity of the place.

Unfortunately for her, it meant she couldn't go far to seek help before she was spotted by Chaya.

'There's only one option.' Re'Kha thought as she looked at the palace wall nearby. Normally, it was a height her character couldn't scale up. But now, thanks to the car, she should be able to traverse it. Re'Kha was barefoot now, for only that was silent.

She didn't care about the bleeding in her legs, thanks to being injured by the glass shards. If she wanted to survive, she had to grit her teeth and move. Re'Kha wholly suppressed the instincts of her character as she took charge, causing a slight change in her demeanour.

She looked at the fight between Chaya and the six people—four men and two women—that was still ongoing. It seemed they were able to hold their own as Chaya was greatly exhausted. The moment a man moved in the line of sight between Chaya and her, Re'Kha pushed out the door and shot out from her car.

Her eyes turned red from the pain as she grit her teeth, firing up her fighting spirit as she pressed forth through sheer willpower, brute-forcing through her sensations of pain. She made a light jump and sat on the hatchback of her car, sliding a bit on it as she spun her body, curling her legs as she turned around to face the rear glass of her car.

"Argh," She felt piercing pain all over her body as Re'Kha tried to get up. She controlled herself from losing balance due to the pain as she climbed to the top of the car with one leap. She then used the weight that built up in her thanks to the jump, using it to compress on her legs that acted as a spring.

In one swell motion, her legs sprang forth, causing her to leap high enough to reach the walls. Re'Kha used the momentum of her jump to move her legs forward and land on the top of the walls as her hands pulled her upper body forth.

She quickly climbed above the wall and looked on the other side to note it was just grass. Just when she jumped, a knife flew over and lodged itself into the calf on her left leg, causing her to lose her balance and fall.

"Argh!" Re'Kha grunted as she shifted her weight, using her hands as a spring to cushion her fall as she rolled on the grass ground. The shifting inertia spiked the pain in her as Re'Kha almost lost consciousness.

She barely reined in her focus as she pulled out the knife from her left calf, clutching it as she got up and dragged herself forward. She looked back, hearing sounds of screams of people getting stabbed as she increased the speeds of her limping, intending to hide somewhere in the meantime.

"Ugh!" Re'Kha tumbled to the ground as something hit the back of her head, causing her to bleed. She looked back and saw that it was her phone. The display screen flashed and showed the time.
