Eren leaped from the Phoenix, summoning the shadowy sword that materialized in his grasp.
Using the dark blade, he sliced through the aura blade flying towards his Phoenix, shielding her from the attack.
His sword cut the aura blade in two, but he did not stop there. The purest essence of poison gathered around the shadowy sword.
While it may not have matched the devastating sword technique he had witnessed in his dream, it far surpassed the power of the Pendant of Poison he had used before.
With a decisive swing of his blade, Eren made the very space tremble. A condensed essence of poison shot forth towards the dark figure on the palace roof.
The poisonous arc of essence spiraled through the air, leaving a trail of green mist in its wake.
The figure, clad in a cloak as black as midnight, revealed an interested look. At first, he had thought that the appearance of the phoenix in the godforsaken Northern Continent was surprising.
