By the time Aiden opened his eyes, the failing Reality before him was filled with innumerable amount of sword slashes.
"Ready, Master?" Lucille inquired with Aiden nodding.
"I am." Then with a soft tap on her shoulder, he added. "Thank you for standing guard."
"I am only carrying out my duty."
"Regardless." Aiden remarked before taking a step forward, his gaze zeroing in on the solitary 'pillar' ahead.
"Will this work?" Lucille inquired.
Silence persisted for a moment before Aiden replied. "How about we find out?"
The next moment, the slashes moved as one entity, descending upon the 'pillar' like a hungry lion upon prey.
For a moment, nothing happened as the pillar remained the same but then… it slowly turned to dust, leaving Aiden smiling and Lucille letting out a sigh of relief.
Neither had been sure if the attack would work, after all, the Greatest Evil was not just some random Otherworldly.
