Crack. Crack. Crack.
The sound of shattered glass filled the air, and I felt my body being propelled backward.
My consciousness slowly returned as I took in the chaos surrounding me. Cracks ran through the space, like veins coursing with energy, and in a matter of moments, the entire world shattered.
The cosmic background shattered alongside it.
I was falling, plummeting towards what looked like Ashton City. I tried to stop myself before I collided with the buildings, but I was too late. I barely managed to slow my fall and ended up crashing onto the roof of a tall building.
BANG―!
"Pfttt."
I coughed, covering my mouth as blood trickled down my fingers. The pain was overwhelming, and my body trembled with every breath.
