Hades crossed his arms just as the arc of energy slammed into him.

BOOM!

A dark ripple surged around his body. His aura that once calm and controll now flared outward like a living shadow. Black tendrils of raw underworld energy danced across his body, the air around him warping under the pressure of his magic power.

It was a clear sign that Hades was using more than just his authority. He was tapping into his true power.

His boots slid slightly against the air itself, pressure pressing down from all directions. A grimace twitched at the corners of his lips as the energy bore into him.

The attack wasn't just powerful, it was different. Its nature didn't belong to the Angel, Demon, or Celestial. It was foreign but also powerful.

And it was hurting him.

He gritted his teeth.

"So… it's just as I thought," he mused darkly. "This anomaly is different anything the we have known."
