"Ice Shard Storm!" the masked lady exclaimed.
As the words echoed through the air, a swirling vortex of ice particles surged toward the trio.
From a distance, the storm resembled a dense cloud of wintery winds or icy sleet. However, upon closer inspection, it revealed a more sinister secret: countless tiny ice needles concealed within its depths. These were the true peril of the attack.
The storm itself carried a bone-chilling cold that could numb the senses. But the real danger lay in the sharp needles that pierced through the skin, shattering upon contact with bone and muscle. For weaker opponents, this could prove fatal, as the frost would spread throughout their bodies, crippling their movements or even freezing them solid.
For stronger foes, the frost would at least slow their reactions or immobilize them momentarily, giving the attacker an opening to deliver a devastating blow.
