Manon, who had been observing the distant battle, felt a sense of foreboding when the fight between the two traitors briefly halted. 'What are you hesitating for?!' he transmitted via Telepathy. 'We must...'
But before he could finish, a roar of pure agony, like that of a beast in its death throes, erupted from behind him!
Manon whipped his head around to see Matthias raising the Ejected Sword Blade from his Power Armor. He plunged it viciously into the wound where the Evil Bone Fragment was embedded and began to slice downward with savage force!
The horrifying sound of the metal blade grating on bone was enough to make one's blood run cold!
"Matthias—! What are you doing! Stop!"
Manon's face paled. Completely ignoring the two powerful traitors watching menacingly from a distance, he lunged forward to stop Matthias from this suicidal act of plunging an Ejected Sword Blade into his own ribs.
But Matthias shoved him away forcefully.
