Chapter 68: Calder and Solari Clash

Calder, having been propelled high into the air by Solari's fierce attack, managed to right himself mid-flight. Using his essence, he manipulated the air beneath him to cushion his fall. Landing on the ground with an earth-shattering thud, he raised his Abyssal Aegis, from which surged a storm of essence-infused wind.

The wind swept through the arena in gusts, bending the air and distorting light. Tiny particles of essence intermingled with the winds, giving it a shimmering, surreal quality. The entire area seemed as if it was beneath the surface of a rippling lake, the very air flowing like water.

Calder's formidable 'Indigo Torrent' rushed towards Solari, its force seeming to distort the very air around it. Solari, however, remained steadfast, his stance unwavering, his daggers raised.
