The Only Hope (2)

Zeshion joined the fray!

Although a tad too late, a helping hand is still a helping hand! Zeshion engaged Noir in close combat, making him unable to focus on attacking from range. He was extremely wary of Zeshion's new sword, something that I was seeing for the first time too.

The sword was of a pure black color, as if it were cursed, but it was releasing a holy aura. Each swing cut not only air but even space along its path. Noir was blocking it with crystallized tentacles, but the tentacles crumbled before even touching the sword!

Seeing that much, I could guess why Noir would want to avoid the sword to the point of having tunnel vision. Still, the time I gained from it was something that I needed.

"Ugh...!"
