Surpassing Expectation
"Let see what you got " A sly grin adorned the woman's face, her eyes sparkling with an air of superiority.
With a flick of her wrist, the statues that surrounded them seemed to come to life, their stone forms cracking and shifting. Each figure moved in an unsettlingly fluid manner, their unblinking gazes fixed solely upon Vincent, as if eagerly anticipating the woman's command.
Vincent's eyebrows arched in astonishment as he surveyed the newfound power pulsating within the ranks of the humanoid statues. It was a power that surpassed what he had encountered before, its concentration magnified fourfold.
The woman, still smiling, spoke with an air of confidence.
"Impressive, isn't it? I have spent over a thousand years enhancing the strength of these statues. They are now at their peak form, ready to serve their purpose." she taunted, her voice laced with a boasting undertone.
