Chapter 331
Caitlin rolled across the ground, narrowly avoiding the strike, but the man relentlessly pursued her, each blow aimed to kill.
Caitlin quickly analyzed his weaknesses. As the seventh instructor lunged at her with a strike, she was about to counter when suddenly, someone stepped in front of her.
“Shhh-”
The blade sliced through the man’s arm instead of Caitlin’s.
The seventh instructor realized in shock that the wound was not on Caitlin but on their young master. His long knife fell to the ground, his voice shaking. “Young Master!”
“Zekel” Caitlin gasped, her eyes wide with shock..
“Young Master”
The seventh instructor rushed forward, trying to help Zeke.
Zeke turned around, grabbing the man and driving a dagger into his chest.
“I won’t allow you to hurt her…” Zeke gritted through his teeth, a snarl escaping his throat.
The seventh instructor never imagined that his life would end like this–killed by the hands of the very person he had
Ignoring the injury to his arm, Zeke shouted to the eighth and final instructor, “Come on! The final battle, I’ll fight for her!”
“Young Master” The eighth instructor hesitated, unable to bring himself to harm Zeke.
“Zeke! This is my choice! Don’t fight for me!” Caitlin shouted as she got back to her feet.
Zeke ignored her plea, grabbing a long knife from the ground and charging at the eighth instructor.
The two men clashed. The eighth instructor started to dodge, but as Zeke’s attacks intensified, he had no choice but to defend and counter. They fought fiercely, but Zeke’s injury made him no match for the eighth instructor.
Zeke was soon struck across the chest, blood spraying from the wound.
“Ugh…” Zeke gasped as he fell to his knees, the knife’s tip digging into the ground.
The battle had gone sideways. The seventh instructor was already dead, and Zeke, despite his injuries, was still standing.
“Zeke…” Caitlin’s voice trembled as she watched the blood–soaked man. Her emotions were a whirlwind. She didn’t want to owe him any more than she already did.
“Trinity! The duel isn’t over! Come on!” The eighth instructor turned his focus back to Caitlin.
Caitlin fought back against the instructor. After several exchanges, the pain from her injuries started to take its toll.
The man’s heavy punch slammed into her abdomen, and Caitlin felt her insides shake. She was sent flying, rolling across the ground.
“Trinity, you sought death yourself, and I will grant it to you”
As Caitlin struggled to regain her composure, the eighth instructor raised his bloodied knife high above her, ready to strike.

Without hesitation, Zeke threw himself at the instructor, grabbing him and stopping him from delivering the fatal blow.
“You’ve crossed a line, Young Master!” The eighth instructor tried to shake Zeke off.
Zeke grabbed his legs, holding him back just as the blade moved towards Caitlin
*Bang! Bang!”
At that moment, a figure appeared at the entrance of the arena, swiftly and accurately firing shots at the men.
The eighth instructor was shot, but it wasn’t just him–Zeke was also hit by one of the bullets.
Both men collapsed to the ground almost simultaneously.
Zeke…
Caitlin’s heart raced as she saw him fall. She didn’t know who had fired, but seeing Zeke go down made her panic. She couldn’t bear the thought of him dying for her–if he did, she’d never be able to live with hersell
She looked toward where the shots had come from and saw a man running toward her, wearing the familiar attire of Shadow Moon Pavilion.
It wasn’t until the man was nearly on top of her that Caitlin realized who it was. It was Sebastiani
He had shot the eighth instructor and saved Zeke, but he had also accidentally wounded him in the process.
“Sebastian!”
Seeing Caitlin on the ground, covered in blood, Sebastian’s heart broke. He rushed over to her.
“Sebastian Caitlin whispered weakly.
“Quickly! Let’s get out of here!”
Sebastian helped Caitlin to her feet and, lifting her onto his back, ran toward the exit.
Zorro watched the entire scene unfold from the observation deck in the castle. He had seen his son rush into the arena for Caitlin, witnessed another man shooting the eighth instructor and his son, and how saw Sebastian carrying Caitlin out of the arena.
“Go to the arenal Stop them!” Zorro commanded as he left the castle to head toward the arena himself.
Inside the arena, Zorro saw the two men lying on the ground
Boss, the protector is dead, but the young master is still alive!”
“Quick! Get him help!” Zorro barked the orders.
“Yes!”
As his subordinates carried Zeke away, Zorro turned to give another order, “Capture the one who intruded into the arena, and bring back
Trinity!”
“Yes”
The Shadow Moon Pavilion members swiftly pursued Sebastian, who was carrying Caitlin out of the arena. Xero had arrived outside, ready to
