Chapter 19: The Seventh Form
Yeon-hwa didn't feel it at first.
Then she did, all at once, a line of fire from her shoulder to her elbow, and her left hand went numb.
Blood ran down to her fingertips and dripped on the stones.
She went back three steps and somehow stayed on her feet.
Across the ring, Jin Gwang-hu lowered his red blade and looked at her with real pity.
"You should have stayed in the woodshed, child," he said. "You were safe there."
Somebody in the crowd shouted, "His sword! Look at his sword!"
The red light hadn't gone out.
It ran along his steel.
Six hundred righteous swordsmen stared at it.
None of them had ever seen a righteous blade do that.
None of them had to be told what it meant.
Yeon-hwa looked for Mu-hyeon.
He stood at the very edge of the ring, exactly where she had left him.
His hands were fists at his sides.
Ye-rin had both hands wrapped around his sleeve.
He hadn't moved an inch.
Yeon-hwa could see what it was costing him from across the courtyard.
