The air grew heavy as Freya gripped her sword tightly. With a sudden burst of power, she dashed forward, her speed leaving faint afterimages in her wake.
The lightning wolf, sensing danger, tried to leap away, but it was too late. Freya's charge was unstoppable.
Raising her massive sword high, she brought it down with a ferocity that could shatter stone. The blade slammed into the wolf's side like a battering ram, the force of her strike creating a sharp gust of wind that tore through the wolf.
BOOM!
The wolf's body exploded into pieces, its blood and flesh scattering across the clearing. A faint mist hung in the air, settling as the echoes of the blast faded away.
Ashton dusted himself off, muttering something to himself. I glanced at him, my thoughts swirling.
