Capítulo 125: The Battle of Darlbridge - Part 2

As Kir rose, the angel he'd been fighting rose to intercept him.

Kir had the advantage in speed and an earlier start, but almost as soon as he swung Kangetsu toward the healer, the blade deflected off a barrier half a meter away from her.

The hexagonal flare pattern told Kir that the barrier was fully latticed.

Before the other angel could close with him, Kir flapped away.

At first he thought his attack had done nothing, but then below he saw Amarena crush the skull of the lead Executionar with a double-fisted strike that sent blood and brainmatter scattering in a cone.

"Gouveio!" the healer called out, her eyes filling with shock at the sudden death of her companion. For a few seconds she simply hovered, shock overtaking her.
