The Huntress Vs The Thundering Reaper
*BOOOOOM!*
A thunderous explosion ripped through the air, the ground shuddering underfoot as a dark purple blast tore through the thick barriers, shattering the Junction Tower into a million pieces.
The rebound shockwaves blasted outward from the destroyed barriers, knocking down those who were unfortunate enough to be nearby.
Cecilia, amidst the screaming and scrambling crowd, was quick to respond despite her shock and dismay.
Her instincts as a seasoned Hunter kicked in, and she gathered all her strength to erect a powerful barrier to shield the remaining bystanders from the poison lingering in the air and suppress it to a harmless range.
However, just as she was focusing her energy, she felt a surge of dark aura behind her, and something very small and sharp stabbed into her skin. The attack was too swift, and by the time she raised her guard, it was too late.
