Light vs Dark

Whilst the fight between Hal and Valyr had seemingly reached its climax, with the former unleashing a move that instilled fear even to the escorts that had accompanied the four candidates to the crater, Loreina and Faulus' attention were fixated on the attack, briefly feeling a sense of dread from the golden light that had covered part of the crater.

"To think the rumors were true," muttered Loreina as she recalled the stance Hal had taken before unleashing his attack. Going through the vivid memory, she watched the young man in her mind raise his sword up into the air before infusing it with his mana, causing the blade to glow the same color as his body.

Then, as if a switch had been flipped all of a sudden, the sword and the young man seemed to have become a single entity, both of them giving off the feeling that they could cut through anything within an instant underneath the great power it contained.
