The HELL?!
Leonel couldn't even process what happened. One moment he was standing behind Ren, preparing to enter the fight with the confidence of a tank ready to protect his team. The next moment, he was flying through the air like a ragdoll straight into the jaws of death—literally.
Although Leonel had expected that Ren might eventually use him as a shield—because that was simply the kind of person Ren was—being thrown between the jaws of a World Boss and a devastating divine blast from a powerful Princess was absolutely not how he imagined his heroic sacrifice.
He was supposed to defend his teammates against attacks and bravely take hits so they could execute a plan with finesse, strategy, and teamwork. Who would've thought he'd be used as a sacrificial offering barely a minute into the fight?
Not even a minute. Thirty seconds, maybe.
