With a roar, Orion activated his Titan Form, his body swelling to immense proportions as he charged the old man with an Instant Impact.
Locked by Orion's power, the ancestor let out a defiant shout, his own divine power flaring to life to shatter the invisible bonds. But he didn't flee. Instead, he channeled his energy into tearing open a cross-dimensional portal.
"Wilson, go! Now!" he screamed. As the portal stabilized, the old man thrust his free hand toward Orion, his divine power coalescing into a colossal palm meant to crush him.
Orion was trapped.
The old man wasn't trying to kill him; he knew he didn't have the strength for that. This was a final, desperate gambit: sacrifice himself to give his descendant, Wilson, a chance to escape.
But it failed.
Just before the ghostly hand closed around him, Orion had hurled a magic scroll toward Wilson's position. A dimensional-sundering curse erupted, and the newly formed portal imploded violently.
