She was about to pounce on him before he completed:
"Don't get to know me... Everyone who tried that was buried beneath my feet. And I am the only one who has remained standing until now."
And before she could reply, the darkness beneath his feet vanished...
And Lloyd emerged from his own shadow.
"Master... do you want me to fight them?"
Kim gave him a look that made his heart freeze:
"Did I order you to come out?"
Lloyd trembled:
"I just... I was afraid you would perish."
Kim approached him one step... it was enough to make Lloyd shake to his bones.
"Consider this your first mistake. But if you repeat this... I will send you to hell. Understood?"
Lloyd immediately disappeared back into the shadows.
Lithia's eyes welled up in shock:
"You have... a skill to enslave people?"
Kim did not respond to her.
Instead, he suddenly appeared in front of her, shoving her with enormous force, causing her to crash into the ground, so hard that dust flew up in a shocking explosion.
Kara moved with rapid steps through time... playing with distances, vanishing and returning, until Kim almost thought she was faster than him.
But...
When he opened his eye...
Everything changed.
The time aura around Kara slowed down.
Her movements were exposed.
Her heartbeats were heard.
The speed increase Kim activated was not human.
A battle between two who play with time itself...
Who would be supreme?
Kara screamed:
"Now!"
And suddenly...
Kim was imprisoned in a circle of timelessness.
His body froze in the air.
His breathing stopped... everything stopped.
Lithia approached, laughing:
"Finally... we will take Amun from you, and you won't be able to save him."
Kara opened a small bag... pulled out the sealing artifact...
And pulled Amun out from inside Kim.
Lithia let out the laugh of the end:
"It's over... he is ours."
But Kara felt something... something very wrong.
When she looked at Kim...
She found him evaporating.
And the ground was evaporating.
And the palace...
And the sky...
And the sun itself was dissolving.
The whole world was falling apart.
Then they heard a laugh...
A low laugh... turning into a screech... then hysterical screaming.
It was Kim's voice.
But from where?
