Shael's phantom extended a finger, touching it to Amber's forehead as it uttered an incantation.
The dark knowledge parasitic on Amberser's soul transformed into countless vermin, beginning to devour his soul voraciously.
In just a moment, Amberser's soul was shattered.
Shael wasn't faring well either; Its body, formed from black mist, was completely torn apart by an invisible force, causing Shael to emit a heart-wrenching scream.
It seemed a lose-lose situation, with Shael accepting the punishment of Aeo in exchange for the complete annihilation of Amberser, but before Shael's phantom vanished completely, Amberser's fragmented soul began to heal once more.
The soul, already terribly fractured, was protected by some special power, slowly returning to its original form.
