Rusak took the opportunity to attack from the side, his claws glowing with energy as he struck at the demon's head. The impact actually made the creature stumble, but again, it didn't pierce the bone.
"This thing's a damn nightmare," Rikka muttered, wiping a little sweat from her brow.
The demon raised its wings again, this time pulling them in close. A dark energy began to build between them, pulsating with raw power.
Lance's eyes narrowed. "It's preparing something big!"
The demon suddenly flung its wings open, releasing a massive shockwave of black mist. The wave surged outward, corrupting everything it touched.
Fortunately, everyone was behind Lia's barrier, but the force of the attack was taking a toll on her as she had to consume her magic energy continuously to keep it up. The pressure of the attack made her stagger, but she gritted her teeth, doing her best to keep it up. "I can't hold this one for long!"
