BANNNNG!
I stopped in my tracks and a shield of strings appeared in front of me, defending me against the shockwave of attack, while the two Grimms coming at me got so injured that I quickly pulled them into my core.
I turned toward the attack, which killed both natives and Grimms.
It was not the attack from the Earth Sovereigns but from Sky Sovereign from the Grimm to be exact, one of the stray attacks that landed and ended up killing its people as well as ours.
The stray attacks are not rare; they have killed a lot of people and not all of them were from the Grimms.
Surviving them is a matter of luck, rather than power. If I had been where it struck, even the powerful shield wouldn't have been able to save me.
I have been lucky that I have been far away and even then; I needed to use my strongest defensive measure to survive, and it still injured me.
Thank you for reading.
