Holy Sword Tournament Arc II

(POV: Akashic Records)
Gallus stretched his muscular arms.
His metallic body glimmered in the setting sun.
"You see, Isadora, Lady Lirien was scared because extracting the Demon Lord seed now could very well kill you. Such a shame, isn't it?"
Isadora, her leg broken and throbbing with pain, desperately clawed away from Gallus, her bat-like wings unfurling to escape his clutches. But before she could take flight, Gallus seized her wing, exerting crushing force as he slammed her back to the ground.
"GAH!!"
The impact sent a burst of agonizing pain through her body, causing her to cough up blood.
Leaning close, his metallic face inches away from her trembling form, Gallus chuckled darkly.
