The battlefield crackled with dark energy as Leon's hand, coated in flames of darkness, swung toward Vortugen.
Sensing the danger, Vortugen tried to dodge, and shot a few of its tentacles trying to distract Leon as he tried to avoid the attack.
Leon quickly summoned his ghosts to bind Vortugen, but the creature's tentacles sliced through them effortlessly, cutting them down before they could secure him.
Unperturbed, Leon closed in and threw a punch. Vortugen tried to evade, but Leon's hand shifted direction mid-air and struck Vortugen's arm.
The impact was powerful, and Vortugen, in pain, jumped back, emitting a piercing scream.
In a desperate move, Vortugen severed its own arm, which began to vanish into nothingness.
Before Vortugen could fully react, Leon was already on the move. With swift, determined steps, he reappeared in front of the creature, launching himself at it with renewed ferocity.
