The core was defenseless for a moment, the moment that Shadow decided to show himself and attack it, cutting it in half and destroying it.
The creature stopped moving for an instant when the core was destroyed and simply stared at the core that was slowly falling down to the ground in two pieces, only for the monster to suddenly roar and the two pieces to start glowing.
Both Shadow and Reign widened their eyes and moved, trying their best to get far away from the core.
Shadow immediately teleported away from the core while Reign covered himself in black lightning, boosting his speed to its limit and running away from the core that suddenly exploded.
The explosion was deafening, sending shockwaves rippling through the air and shaking the ground beneath their feet. The force of the blast knocked Reign off his feet, sending him tumbling through the air before he landed hard on the forest floor.
