John leaped forward and a low demonic growl left his transformed mouth filled with rows of needle-like, sharp teeth as he thrust his weapon at Sung-Jin. The prince screamed, throwing one hand back, to twist his torso in a desperate attempt to avoid the attack, but he also didn't resign from the offense.
He screamed, casting as pell with the one still extended hand. His fingers curled up, as the ice ray was released, hitting John straight in the face.
The halberd missed by a hair, while the spell landed, quickly spreading around the demonic body, which rammed into the magician, releasing the weapon which landed on the sand still present at the further parts of the arena.
They both fell to the ground.
It awfully looked like people in the audience were going to pass out because they were still holding their breaths. Just like Tihana, whom I carefully observed with one of my eyes.
