"Laying a hand in the Priestess, do you actually want your entire seven generations annihilated?" Ligna said coldly as his golden hair floated in mid air.
"…So what if it is? And so what if it isn't?" Ezra slowly walked nearer. "Do you still imagine that any of you can still walk away from this place alive?"
"Because of you?" Ligna sneered.
"That's right… because of me."
"SWISH!"
Ligna appeared before Ezra in the blink of an eye. His lion claws shot at Ezra's head pencil straight.
Just as his claws were about to make contact with Ezra's forehead…
"BAM!!"
A formless tongue of scorching flint exploded in midair, blocking the flawed hand for an instant.
"A meaningless struggle," a low growl rumbled.
Copious amounts of dense invisible air enveloped them.
With the sound of a slap, a silvery white arm that looked as if it was covered in a layer of thick spiky firs broke out of the smog and grabbed Ligna's arm firmly.
