A bolt of lightning struck down at Prince Seventeen, its white flash tinged with threads of crimson, suggesting immense power. The guards beside Prince Seventeen drew in all the little ghosts that were scurrying around, flinging them into the air to form a dense wall of ghosts, shielding Prince Seventeen underneath. The lightning struck down, turning all those little ghosts into ash.

After the lightning strike, the dark clouds gradually dissipated. Although it was just a single bolt, it had eliminated most of the ghost pets. Prince Seventeen's strength was reduced by more than half in an instant!
