Katherine's face still held confusion and incomprehension when Amberser threw her away.
What was happening? Why had he thrown her out?
Hold on, something's not right. Why was the Lich still holding onto her limbs with Mage Hand?
Katherine was grabbed by four glowing pale blue palms by her wrists and ankles, her whole body spread-eagled and suspended in the air in a shameful posture.
Before Katherine could struggle, a huge impact came from behind.
The silver-white sword light struck Katherine, but rather than cleave through her as it would a city wall, it merely sliced through the clothes on her back and then, with her in front, soared into the sky.
With Katherine blocking the sword light, Amberser managed to dodge just in time, although Naomi's wings were grazed by the blade, tearing a huge gash in her right dragon wing and rendering her unable to maintain flight.
