Celestia, meanwhile, conjured a glowing dome of light magic, forming a shimmering defensive barrier as George rushed to Elay and the child. But it was clear—they were outnumbered, and this ambush was no joke.
"You're gonna regret this!" George shouted, eye's flames flaring to life
Soohyung cracked his neck, crimson eyes glowing like burning embers.
"Come on, then."
The forest erupted with chaos.
The ambush had begun—and no one was holding back.
Andrea's suit lit up again, arcs of energy coursing through the wires along her spine. The nodes on her gloves spun rapidly as she slammed her fists together.
"Energy Bump!"
A shockwave of concentrated energy burst outward from her clenched fists. The pulse hit Celestia's barrier like a cannon.
CRACK!
The barrier shattered, light fragments scattering into the air like glass.
"Tsk!" Celestia clenched her jaw, stumbling slightly. "She's stronger than expected…"
