Chapter 229 Two Yips For Memphis!
"!!!" 'Wha—!?'
Although he was not moving at his fastest, there still should've been absolutely no way that anyone other than the World-class Hunters could react to his speed! It was simply impossible!
'But then,' Victor thought as he looked up and saw a splendiferous pair of eyes glaring at him. 'What the hell is this???'
He back-stepped at once, getting his hand free from Memphis's grasp. Time returned to normal, and everyone's eyes fell on the two of them.
