The demon's clawed hand was already moving, cutting through the air so quickly that there was no room for error. Helena had her arms up, and a barrier spell was forming around her hands.
But Rex could see through his foresight that the barrier wouldn't hold. Not against something that had just ruined Helena's Flame Lightning Storm without a second thought.
Rex did what he had to do right away.
"Fuck it... here goes nothing!"
He used his telekinesis to grab the demon's arm in the middle of a swing from the roof, putting as much force into the hold as he could, and the effect was instant. Kruger's arm came to a halt, seemingly trapped in a vise, and he ceased his forward movement less than a foot away from Helena's face.
The demon growled and looked up with its black eyes, looking for the person who had stopped it.
