Ethan didn't answer.
His silence landed heavier than any insult—more like a sentence passed.
He raised his hand. Power surged again, coalescing in his palm—
A second Energy Disc snapped into form, white light blooming outward like an avalanche.
BOOM—BOOM—BOOM—!!!
Vaedoroth didn't dare hesitate. He threw everything he had into a massive energy shield, conjuring it in front of him with frantic speed.
That shield had once withstood landslides, tidal waves—
But the moment the Energy Disc touched it—
Crack. Crack. Crack. Crack.
Fractures spiderwebbed across the surface.
Then it shattered.
"What—?!"
Vaedoroth's eyes went wide. For a second, he was too stunned to even think about countering.
And in that heartbeat—
A streak of violet-pink light flashed behind him.
Kaelira.
She tore through the air like she'd ripped a seam in reality itself. Her power flared, forming a towering figure of light behind her—massive, radiant, and merciless.
BOOM!!
