It looked like the black short spear was a weapon that focused on continuous damage. I caught sight of a countless number of spikes sprouting out from halfway down its shaft. I recovered from my momentary shock and shouted out, “PULL IT OUT!!” The man glanced at me. He then moved his hands sluggishly and got ready to pull the spear out, but a weapon that’s embedded deeply inside a body couldn’t be moved that easily. Of course, there’s the possibility that he’s unable to exert his strength because of the fear of death. The man who’s being hanged on the wall was at least 10m away from the ground. Even with my agility, there was no way I could reach him if I jumped up. Then, could I use a throwing pick or something to cut the rope? But if I missed the rope and hit the man, and if his HP ended up dropping to zero... Normally speaking, this place was still «Within the area», so there’s absolutely no chance of that happening. But speaking of which, if that were the case, that spear wouldn’t cause any damage. As I was stuck in my indecision, Asuna’s sharp shout entered my ears. “CATCH HIM FROM BELOW!” And then, she rushed towards the entrance of the church at a lightning quick speed.
