I activated my new movement skill.

Time bent for a heartbeat.
My body blurred and reappeared right in front of Number One. Before the phantom could even react, my knee shot upward and crashed into its chest.
BOOM!!
Cracks spread across its deathmist armor. The impact launched it back like a falling star, smashing straight through the phantom standing behind it. Both of them tore through the tower's top floor, exploding out the other side before finally slamming into the asteroid with a thunderous crash.
The entire base shook violently. The remaining phantoms froze, shock clear even through their featureless forms.
I didn't give them time.
With one smooth motion, I swung my sword in a wide horizontal arc.
Space trembled. Black cracks rippled outward. A crescent blade of void-edge Essence shot forward, screaming toward them.
