Chapter 422 Gears in Motion 1
BOOOOM!
The room where Anna had been locked away exploded, sending debris flying and dust swirling in the air.
Alexander and Elizabeth quickly took to the air, to avoid the shockwaves.
As the smoke began to clear, they were met with a shocking sight.
What had once been a solid building now looked like a massive flower.
"What's is that thing ?" Alexander asked
The petals appeared like see-through sheets of blood, while sharp black thorns jutted out from the stem, making the flower look even more dangerous.
"Alexander, this isn't good. She reached Demon Lord status too quickly, and her body can't handle all that power. If we don't stop her, she could explode and destroy the whole city!"
"Demon Lord?" He was clearly shocked by the revelation.
It was a status that had taken him decades to achieve, and now his sister was claiming that Anna had jumped multiple levels just like that.
But no matter how he looked at it, he could sense that Anna had really transcended.
"We need to stop this now. Let's combine our domains to limit the damage to the city!" she ordered.
If three Demon Lords fought, the shock-waves could easily reduce everything to ruin ,making domains essential for high-level combat
She wasn't afraid of losing . But just in case the flower exploded unexpectedly, using two domains to contain it would lower the risk
Sensing the urgency in her voice, Alexander nodded.
"DOMAIN!"
"DOMAIN!"
Both of them activated their powers, and suddenly, the entire scene shifted.
A dark dome enveloped the area, surrounding the tower and the giant rose. It looked like a heavy curtain had dropped, blocking out the outside world.
Once everything was covered, the entire environment began to shift as their domains combined and blended together.
Red lilies sprouted everywhere, their vibrant petals glowing against the dark surroundings.
Above them, two glowing red half moons hung in the sky, casting an eerie light over the landscape.
This was the siblings' Unison Domain, a powerful combination of their abilities that was only possible because their powers were aligned and resonated with each other.
"Be careful... Don't hurt her too much," Alexander warned, his voice filled with concern.
Elizabeth glanced at her brother and smiled .
SWOOOSH!
SWOOOSH!
The tendrils moved so fast that they were almost impossible to see. Each one was very thin, cutting through the air like lasers.
But Elizabeth was no ordinary Demon Lord. Her battle instincts were among the best in her rank.
Her wings vanished, and she started to free-fall, spinning her scythe with a grace that made her look like she was dancing through the air.
As she focused, everything slowed down around her.
Her pupils darted back and forth , calculating the speed and trajectory of each attack.
She quickly identified the best way to deal with them and began to put her plan into action.
CLANG!
CLANG!
CLANG!
A rapid series of sharp sounds echoed as she effortlessly deflected and dodged each tendril.
Her free fall also allowed her to close the gap between her and Anna in no time.
THUD!
She landed on top of Anna and embedded the tip of her scythe into her chest.
"Sleep for now,"
The red lilies began to flow into Anna's body, their petals glowing faintly.
But Elizabeth sensed something was off. There was a barrier blocking her power, preventing her from fully reaching Anna's heart.
'I need to find out what's causing her emotions to be unstable,'
She closed her eyes and focused, activating one of her special abilities.
This power let her dive into others' emotions, aiming to find the root of the turmoil threatening to consume Anna.
"Wait! What is this?" Elizabeth gasped, sensing something was off.
But it was too late. Anna's own emotions surged like a tidal wave, invading her heart instead.
'He's the only one for me,'
Those words echoed in Elizabeth's mind repeatedly.
