After a brief moment of silent and fearful stares, a soft murmur was heard amongst the knights. It was a chant.
Lightning then arced forward and struck at the crystals covertly on the ground.
[You've been dealt explosive damage. -252 hp]
The crystals nearest to the attack were ignited into a fierce explosion that shook Ed's body. The pain that assaulted Ed was enough to make him scream but not enough to be heard. The explosions were yet to be over.
[You've been dealt explosive damage. 156 hp]

[You've been dealt explosive damage. 156 hp]
[You've died]
[Recalling Champion's Soul]
Apologies for the late release coupled with the short word count, I had to do stuff like file my FAFSA that took longer than anticipated. Ahem, I shouldn't have left that so close to the deadline but it is what it is.
Good night everyone and thanks for reading~
Edit: It's nearly 250 words larger now. The content is more or less the same though excluding the final sentence of Var Agus.
