Touch of Death

Amidst the solemn chamber, Derek and Sol strode forward in unison, side by side, their gazes fixed upon the towering angelic statue with an air of unyielding determination. Their expressions remained remarkably calm, projecting an unwavering resolve that belied the intensity of the impending confrontation.

Meanwhile, the old butler, still in his kneeling position with head bowed, couldn't suppress the shiver that ran down his spine. The palpable aura emanating from the angelic statue reverberated with an unmatched strength, at the pinnacle of the champion realm.
