DLXXXIX. The Dark Arrow

The arrow was wrapped in a purple gas, which condensed and became filiform dark matter, that continued to float around its wooden bar without ever touching it.

Soon after, the enemy raised his hand and stuck his middle finger under his thumb, loading a shot in the direction of the castle's tallest tower.

"Fuck!" Reidar thought, who as soon as he sensed the next shot would be directed at him, put both of his feet on the balcony railing.

The Xis snapped the two fingers with the palm of his hand facing down, and the arrow rotated so quickly on itself that it was instantly wrapped by the purple gas.

Faster than a bullet, it was fired at great speed towards Reidar and left behind a shockwave that consumed the floor under the feet of the Xis, who was obviously unharmed.
