The moon faded into the west.
*Bang!*
A loud boom came from the centre of Shield District. The once formidable hydra, Kilika, dug into the ground once more and vanished.
In the looming dust cloud, a one-eared man hauled a long metal spear with him, shambling with a limp at an eerily fast pace onto a hill of debris.
Gleeward glanced around. Through his peripheral vision, he caught a glimpse of some blood-red tentacles frantically burrowing into the ground.
The chief of Shield District lifted the Soul Slayer Pike, turning the pikehead around.
The Soul Slayer Pike began to vibrate when it pointed to his left.
*Hummm…*
Gleeward no longer hesitated, he strode forward and darted towards the direction.
*Swish!*
With a speed faster than a human could move, his pikehead stabbed the dust cloud.
*Bang!*
A ruin exploded. A disheveled looking girl materialized within the blasted ruins, dodged the pike, and flitted off.
