I Am Really The Best Anti Hero In Another World!-System Of Anti Hero! novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60: Chapter 60 - Between the Edge of the Sword and Doubt

With the gleam of a sword streaking toward him, Noah stood up and narrowly dodged the blow. Everyone exchanged wary looks, and then he shouted:

— N-N-N-no, wait!

He noticed that, unlike previous times, the attack had come at him much more slowly. Had he been even a little less alert, he would have been seriously injured.

He realized that by dodging the attack, he had smashed against the tree he’d been leaning on. With little room to maneuver, he began scanning his surroundings for any possible escape routes when, in a brief glance, he caught sight of the moon shining before his eyes.

A perfect, gleaming blue orb high in the sky. And moments after that hazy vision, Noah barely registered the pounding of his heart until he saw the light green eyes of a woman just ahead—now brandishing another sword pointed directly at him. In that instant, he understood what had happened. Apparently, more time had passed than he had thought.

After lightly spinning the blade of her sword, the woman said:

— Wait?

She walked calmly over to Noah’s side and, standing with the blade resting at his neck, continued:

— Do you have anything more to say? Or do you really know where the young lady is?

"And how would I know...? Am I a psychic? You haven’t even told me what she looks like!"

The four exchanged quick, silent glances, and after nodding briefly, the woman went on:

— She’s a young lady, probably about your age. She has long black hair and green eyes... And now, she’s likely with a middle-aged man, also with long black hair, and a woman of similar age.

At those words, a fleeting thought crossed Noah’s mind:

’But that description is almost... No, that old man definitely doesn’t fit. But that man who was there earlier now...’

Noticing his sudden silence at her words, the woman pressed,

— Do you know who we’re talking about?

’It can’t be... it can’t be them... But if it is, dealing with those five will be much easier with two more people to help...’
