Even Eric was somewhat surprised by the outcome. He originally just disliked the flower-haired young man's loud shouting and wanted to use "Burst Flame," a mid-level fire magic equivalent to a punch from a mid-level esper, to blast him in the face and make him shut up, but who knew it would result in him permanently losing his mouth.
Thinking about it, many strong fortresses are not defended from within. Internal destruction is always easier and more effective!
The flower-haired young man's head was blown to pieces. With no head, his body continued to charge forward. The momentum of his claws made it seem like he wanted to tear Eric apart. He charged forward for five meters, passed Eric, and then fell.
