While Izroth was surprised that Maragos was able to keep up with his speed, Maragos was even more taken aback by the fact that his attack had been blocked. In addition, he was even pushed back in the process!
Even though he changed the trajectory of his attack midway, the power it contained was much greater than Vrys' earlier charge.
"I can see why Vrys died so swiftly by your hands. I do not know what kind of creature you are hiding in the skin of man, but you are no mortal." Maragos stated as two spiraling vortexes of black energy gathered in the palm of his hands.
The next moment, two thin swords with blades that mirrored the night appeared within Maragos' hands.
Although the blades were incredibly thin and seemed brittle, the sharp blade aura that came from their edges well surpassed that of Izroth's Sword of the Storm.
"Evgos, Edaros—prepare the Wilting Gauntlet. I will handle this creature in the clothing of a man." Maragos ordered.
