Chapter 23: Fragment Of Death

"Shit," Theos cursed. 'I was overconfidt, speed is what stands out most about this abomination.'

Theos could hear Luna's cries of concern and, to a lesser extt, the screams of a hiding Alice, but he ignored them for now. He needed to be 0% focused on the fight, but he still stood up and gave a slight thumbs up to confirm his well-being.

After that, Theos heard no more cries of concern, for surely they knew the great danger of the threat and the conctration required to defeat it.

The three shadow wolves gathered beside Theos, waiting for orders. "Go and distract that guy.... They can't leave as long as Luna has mana, so don't worry," Theos ordered, and the three wolves nodded.

Following the command, the three wolves separated and began to bark in unison. Theos' crimson eye glowed brightly, moving restlessly from place to place to survey the tire battlefield in less than a second.

And he saw it.

The abomination was attacking one of the wolves, its brutal speed starting with a small jump, but strong ough to leave a mark on the g. With that speed, it struck one of the Shadow Wolves, which disappeared upon impact.

"Bingo," it was all se by the eye of Theos, who found the trick in his movemts... 'It can only move in one path' he thought. It had done it to him and now to the Shadow Wolf, so it could not be a coincidce.

Tighting his grip on his weapon, Theos ran straight at the abomination as if it were a spear. As he gathered more negative ergy a him, his physical abilities increased.

But the figure moved too, with such speed that it was ev faster than Theos, but with his eyes, he had already se the small jump he had made, so he swerved to the side and extded his sword downward, making a horizontal slash.

*He fell*

The sword slashed and severed the lower limbs of the abomination, which fell straight to the g.

"You're pretty easy to beat; you just have to use your head a little bit," Theos commted before stabbing his body several times with the sword, over and over again... And again... And again. And again.

Gradually, a completely dark blade emerged from the circle of blood, which, in addition to being thin and long, gave the impression of elegance itself.... And the killing itself.

With each passing second, the weapon was fully revealed... Its design resembled a scimitar, with a protective hilt and a single blade.

Such a work of art also conveyed the feeling of suffocation wh looking at it, as if it were a knife to the neck, a ssation felt by everyone looking at it.

But Theos was undeterred, nonchalantly taking the sword by the hilt. Immediately, he felt a ssation of power running through his tire body, and his left eye quickly became restless as he touched the weapon.

The veins in his hand bulged from the sudd power he received, which he gradually controlled and conctrated in his mana core.

...

The announcemts kept coming, but one in particular, the only one he cared about, sounded much louder and more important than the previous announcemts.
