War's Counter Flow ability turned Orpal's blood into acid that burned through his veins. At the same time, World Mirror dominated the energy Night and Orpal had stored inside their clone, using it to strike at the very core of their essence.
Together, War's abilities also amplified the feedback from the Horseman's Double Body to the point that the cracks that opened in the prisms now appeared on the surfaoe of Night's crystal as well.
Despite the distance separating him from the fight, Orpal's real body had been reduced to a puddle of blood and bones that squirmed in agony. Night tried to mend his wounds but every piece of ?esh she regenerated crumbled the second it was formed, further increasing her suffering and Orpal's.
The Thralls felt the mind of their master slipping and lost their fighting spirit. As they ran away, the Demons, the surviving members of the Corps, and the kings of the woods attacked them non—stop.
‘Do you still need my assistance?" Locrias asked.
'No.' Solus replied. ‘Do whatever Lith asked you to. Trion and I will manage the rest!’
Her body had depleted its energy and was on the verge of collapse. Yet with the world energy flooding the Sage Staff and just a few enemies left, she knew that nobody would manage to harm Elina.
‘Watch my back, Trion. I just need a few seconds.‘ Solus activated her own breathing technique, Sky Blessing.
It used her Domination and her tower half to suck in massive amounts of world energy, allowing her to regain her strength and mana without Lith as a medium. Due to her cracked life force and mana core,
Sky Blessing only worked as lnvigoration, not Accumulation.
On the other hand, however, by tapping into the abilities of Menadion's tower, Sky Blessing also granted her a few breathing abilities already.
Locrias nodded and took flight at his top speed, bringing Kamila with him.
“What the heck are you doing‘? This is far from over." She had to yell to be heard despite the wind pressure.
“That's exactly the reason you can't stay here." Locrias replied. "Meln broadcasted his message and everyone knows that Lith and Tiamat are one and the same. If you stay there, people would suspect your involvement,
“Your life and career would be over. Worst case scenario, you would be imprisoned and you would never see Zinva again."
“Since when do you care so much about me?“ Kamila struggled to escape his grip, but to no avail.
“I don't, but Lith does." Locrias Warped inside the barn, raising a curtain of darkness behind the hay to not be seen and a Hush spell to not be heard. "He entrusted me a message for you."
The features of the Demon changed from those of a weathered middle-aged man to those of someone much younger who meant the world to her.
“I'm so sorry for dragging you into this Kami. Especially on the day of your birthday." The face, the voice, and even the eyes belonged to Lith.
The only difference with the original was the skin being in shades of grey instead of his usual olive.
“I don't care about my-" She tried to say, but he put his forefinger on her lips in a plea for silence. I don't have much time. I can guess what's about to happen and it's going to be ugly.
