Linsley didn't flinch. With his Real Fantasy gift, he rewrote the trajectory of the lightning strikes, dissipating them harmlessly.
Summoning frostfire in his hands, he clashed with the eagle leader head-on. The frostfire's chilling blue flames overwhelmed the lightning, freezing and burning it away with each strike.
The hawk warrior hesitated, his confidence wavering as the eagle leader's attacks faltered.
Linsley turned to him, his tone cold. "Do you think defiance will save you now?"
The hawk's winds dissipated, and he lowered his gaze. "No... we'll listen."
The eagle leader, now grounded and defeated, raised his head with visible effort. "What... do you want?"
Linsley raised his hand, summoning a Soul Contract in the form of a glowing purple scroll. "Your loyalty. Sign this, and you will serve me. Betrayal will mean annihilation."
