Chapitre 109: Taking It In

The shield was forming into my hand, but I made it huge and round. I slammed it into the ground, and that was the moment when everything slowed to a near crawl.

Even turned up, I had no chance to make it to the water, I had to stand, and face the destruction head-on. I had separated the two with my shield and I dropped, and then pulled her over to me as time was slowly speeding back up.

Right before the final shield snapped, I burned almost the blood I had making my body cold. I didn't think that it would help me with the blast that was about to hit me.

I had overused my Mana, and now I could do nothing but wait for the inevitable to come. I could feel Alana shaking slowly, but speeding up as the moment caught back up with time.

Right before the blast went off, I pulled Alana into my chest. There was nothing I could physically do to help her, so just whispered to her as the last shield broke.

"Don't worry, I am here with you."
