Thorne hovered in mid-air, his face expressionless as he wielded the Reaper's Scythe.
Wave after wave of energy, imbued with a deathly aura, slashed towards Alexander.
Alexander was quick, darting across the ground, dodging strike after strike with agile movements.
Linda watched Alexander's impressive maneuvers, momentarily mesmerized. At that moment, she felt as if she saw the shadow of Thanatos.

Silently reciting the spell, an ice wall swiftly formed behind her.
"Crack!"
A sharp dagger, initially aimed at Linda's back, was now repelled by the ice wall, flying off.
Seizing the moment, Linda stepped back to create distance.
Where there had been empty snow, a short figure now appeared.
It was Ghoul Barrett!
"Quick reaction, not bad," Barrett said with a cold sneer.
