Third Step-
"First Step to Rule the Mortal World!"
To Princess Ceni's inexperienced eyes it looked like the vice-captain was moving in slow motion. His left foot left the ground and he took exactly one step forward. That was it, that was all she could see.
But by the time she blinked and the rest of the information was processed by her brain the three guardsmen blocking his path were cut cleanly into two from the top-down.
And then another half a second later the captain that had rushed towards him in a flurry of rage accompanied by his overpowering spiritual energy was sent shooting back like a meteor.
His body hit the boundary of the cemetery, or to be more accurate the invisible barrier that had materialized around it when he came close.
It looked like hundreds of ethereal men and women were holding hands trying to keep him from coming any closer.
