The sky darkened, grey clouds rumbling with lightning.
A distant arc of lightning descends, following flashes of thunder. Echoes of steel clashing together filled the northern lands of the Luca clan. In the wet, rainy marshes, a group of women in jet-black armour face off against a single man.
"Don't lower your guard after your strike fails!"
"Ack!"
"Ugh!"
SWOOSH—!
Asmodeus flicked his greatsword, sending two demon knights catapulting back—their eyes rolled back from the immense force.
His body then twisted to avoid the eastern sword of Fuuka slicing through the air. His left arm shot out in a punch before Fuuka could even react and stopped before it hit. However, the immense pressure caused a smashing blow to impact her abdomen, knocking the wind right out of her.
The blow left the knight unconscious in a shallow pool of her blood as Fuuka collapsed.
