BOOM!
Two strong auras erupted beside Kael.
SWOSSH!
A golden knight materialized behind Roosevelt, holding his sword tightly as a terrifying battle intent rolled off his body. His presence alone felt like a blade touching the throat of the world.
At the same time, a deep crimson aura surged out of Martina. It rose higher, almost like living flames wrapping around her figure.
Both auras clashed, pushing and crushing against one another, neither willing to back down. Power built up rapidly, thick enough to choke the air, and after a few tense breaths everything exploded outward in blinding light.
For a moment, the entire cave looked like it had been swallowed by the sun.
Then the light faded.
Martina and Roosevelt now stood with glowing figures, bodies steady and breathing calm.
Their breakthrough was complete. They opened their eyes slowly and looked at each other. Happiness filled their faces, satisfaction reflecting in their pupils.
