The orc lord's eyes flickered with something unreadable.
And before anyone could react, before Edward could even see it happening—
A gust of air...
Then, impact.
The sound of flesh meeting something unstoppable echoed through the battlefield.
Edward's entire body lurched backward, no, he wasn't just thrown, he was launched.
The force of the hit was beyond anything humanly possible.
Edward's massive frame tore through the air like a ragdoll, his body blurring as he shot backward.
He barely had time to register what was happening before—
CRASH!
His body slammed into the city's fortified gates, the entire structure shattering upon impact.
A deafening explosion of stone and metal rang through the air as half the wall collapsed along with the ruined gate, the sheer force of his impact reducing it to rubble.
Dust filled the battlefield, a thick cloud of destruction swallowing everything in its wake.
