The world seemed to stagger to a snail's pace as Grey and Sheila tried to avoid the spell pulling themselves back, confused about their movement being limited. As if someone placed heavy rocks on their backs.
"Don't be shy, STAY!" Ryuji's lips opened, and his voice resounded through the arena, an eerie, indistinct sound like a growling beast.
With the snap of his hand, the ground rumbled like drums in the deep. Huge pillars of rock shot up, forming a gigantic wall blocking their retreat. His wall wrapped around the two people before he kicked Erika and Alicia out of the range with an eerie smile on his lips, a faint black light growing inside his eyes.
"What?! Grey, destroy the damn wall!" Sheila streaked, her voice filled with a hysteric panic.
"Ugh... on it!"
