The sentinels suddenly shifted in the darkness, their saber-like blades accumulating the cold qi in the surroundings. While it alleviated the stress on the numbered warriors, Ten felt a terrible premonition as his Perception throbbed.

The attack of the three puppets he was facing grew fiercer. In that moment, a puppet suddenly separated from Eleven.

Trapped between two puppets, Eleven's lovely brows could only widen. "Ten, your back!"

'So it's me this time, huh?' Ten sneered.
