Yet, at the very last second, the blade was deflected by an unseen force, sending it harmlessly off course.
Before her, a new figure appeared, clad in attire similar to the masked assailants but distinct in their own right.

Their eyes shone with a silvery gleam, like the moon in the night sky, and an air of authority surrounded them.

With a graceful and precise movement, the mysterious savior intercepted the assailants, their skills surpassing even those of the attackers.
The room filled with the clash of blades as the newcomer protected Aliya, driving back the assailants with a display of martial prowess.
