As darkness enveloped both Kurt and Zaval, the latter fell silent, not knowing what happened, still trying to understand how that human was capable of showing up right there, out of nowhere.
Even more...
How was he able to display such strength, when he was nothing but a mere human?
Even if he was an awakened one.
He was nothing but a human.
"WHAT ARE YOU?!" Zaval asked, growling as his holographic disguise gave place to his real form.
He was surrounded by a thick layer of darkness that felt to him like cold air.
He couldn't even hear what was happening outside.
"I thought you already had the answer to that question." Kurt answered, whispering close to Zaval's ear.
The Ishir moved its clawed hand backwards in a strong punch, hitting nothing but thin air.
The next second, he felt the searing pain of a blade slicing through his wrist.
