Ace felt like he was in the middle of an icy ocean, where neither he could breathe nor move as those countless glowing crimson eyes were locked on him. It was the first time in his life that he felt fully exposed without any way to hide or flee.
The next moment, those eyes suddenly began to glow, illumining the dark abyss, and in the middle, something began to condense.
Ace felt death enveloping him at this moment, and someone was locked his very; it was the same feeling that he felt when Conner used the Orbit Lock mystic ability on him, but it was far more terrifying!
Without hesitation, Ace directly activated his two-thief symbol summoning abilities; this wasn't the end; nine dark coins appeared and arranged into an array before creating a runic barrier filled with countless dark runes; it was the second most powerful heavenly array. Heavenly Earth Protection!
