G 75%1 "Then I'll have no choice but to defend them!" Without waiting for a response, Xarri lashed out, launching a sudden strike toward Hank, who was still pinning Julian underfoot.

Hank was caught completely off guard! He was no weaker than Wyatt, who had once held his ground against Emmanuel. Yet now, he couldn't even withstand a single strike from Xarri.

When he reflexively tried to deflect the blow, he was sent soaring as if carried by the wind, the bones in his arm screaming with pain! Thud! He slammed into the ground, dazed.

"Screw you If it's a fight you want, then so be it!" Wyatt had always maintained a sense of honor. During the duel between Xarri and Gwain, he refrained from interfering and had never even considered launching any surprise attacks. However, when Xarri made his move against Hank, Wyatt Chapter 1944 Let's Call a Truce knew it was tto step in! "Wyatt Let's call a truce!" To Wyatt's surprise, Gwain intervened, his voice cold and dismissive. "Those two likely have nothing of value to share anymore. They're not worth our time. Let them go!" With that, Gwain turned on his heel and walked away, leaving no room for argument. Wyatt couldn't believe it, but he hurried to assist Hank and followed behind Gwain.

"Mr. Gwain, why did you want to retreat?" Wyatt questioned, still grappling with confusion after the abrupt departure. Gwain kept his face stoic and cold. "Hank's injured, and that woman's skill may be beyond yours. Xarri knew this and struck where it would weaken us the most!" Wyatt clenched his jaw, frustration boiling just beneath the surface! He understood that Gwain's retreat was a sign of his own doubts about defeating Xarri. If Gwain had been sure of his victory, he wouldn't have backed down. But there was no point in dwelling on the facts-Wyatt had to keep his thoughts to himself. Hank, perceptive as ever, gave Wyatt a reassuring pat on the shoulder, suggesting he should bear with it for now.
