2460 Creation and Destruction (Part 2)
Yet nothing happened as the creature focused on its breathing technique to recover from its many wounds.
Windfell cursed under his breath and conjured a wind blade ahead of him that further hastened his movements and protected him from the following shockwaves. The moment he came close, Solus' golden arms came up and then down like a whip.
The Fury was still in Solus' right hand. Yet it was so small that it was invisible through the balled fist of the giant. That changed in the blink of an eye as the link between the Lith/Solus and the tower allowed the artifact to assess the issue caused by its master's metamorphosis and correct it.
The Fury swelled, feeding off the tower's mass until it reached the proper size. The hammer seemed made of grey stone but it struck harder than Adamant.
Windfell was expecting something like that and his affinity with air magic allowed him to read the air currents.
That along with Full Guard had allowed him in the past to ride the sheer pressure caused by the movement of a Divine Beast and add their momentum to his own strikes, feeding off the enemy's might.
This time, however, the wind ignored his commands and no matter how fast he moved or how suddenly he changed direction, the hammer found him as if he had stood still.
'The fuck?' He thought as he realized that the enemy's weapon moved so quickly that it had been set ablaze by the friction with the air. 'That's why the wind was all wrong! How can such a short arc-'
Windfell raised his blade to deflect the stone with the Davross, but the gap in strength was too big. The metal bent and then cracked as the supersonic boom generated by the attack ripped the skin off his host's face.
The motion didn't stop until the cursed scimitar crashed against the ground. The host's legs shattered first, then the ribcage exploded, and lastly the Awakened's head was squashed with a crunch between the rock and Windfell's Davross.
Knightfall had tried to Spirit Warp the cursed scimitar away, but a glimpse from the titan's emerald eye had made it useless.
"We need to get to him before a second strike-" A rumble of thunder cut Stargazer short as the colossus unleashed the Tower Tier Void Spell, Mjolnir.
Bolts of lightning erupted from the ground and rained from the sky while a cloud of thick metal dust appeared out of thin air. The temperature also dropped so much that it turned the ferromagnetic powder into a superconductor.
The humidity in the air condensed into thick droplets of hail that the electric current electrolyzed into oxygen and hydrogen, causing a massive explosion.
Void Magic turned what remained of the water magic into fire and took control of the detonation, further amplifying its effect.
Despite the distance separating the two cursed objects from the fight, they needed to conjure their Spirit Barriers to avoid being incinerated as well.
"Let me go, dammit! My brother needs my help." Tista was still struggling to get free from the Horseman's hold when the heat wave hit them.
She and Dawn were even further away yet they still needed to conjure an air shield to keep the explosion from blasting them out of the sky.
"No, he doesn't." Dawn kept flying, putting even more distance between her and the fusion. "He is one with Solus now."
"What the heck are you talking about? They are both severely wounded and they are facing three living legacies alone!" Tista tried to sound outraged but there was something in the air that sent a shiver down her scales.
