I want to stay

Aldric only had time to raise his hand.

BOOM!

His body was sent flying straight into the wall behind him, cracking the stone as blood immediately burst from his mouth.

Rhea did not stop.

The greatsword swept horizontally, but the blade was not aimed at Aldric. Instead, it came down directly on the center of the Magic Array.

BOOM!

One of the array nodes shattered.

The second strike followed immediately, and the ring of runes on the left side went dark.

By the time the third strike came down, Aldric had already charged forward.

"Fireball!"

Flames erupted.

Rhea angled her greatsword.

BOOM!

The Fireball exploded directly against the surface of the blade, but she only moved half a step backward. Before the smoke had even dispersed, Rhea had already passed through it and kicked Aldric straight in the stomach.

His body folded forward.
