"This is getting ridiculous."
Rey muttered, his voice trembling as he watched from below.
The ground beneath him and Ater cracked and splintered, unable to handle the sheer force of the ongoing fight.
"Ridiculous? I'd say it's rather entertaining," Ater replied with a smirk, his crimson eyes never leaving the battle. "Look at her go. She's stronger than I gave her credit for."
Rey turned to Ater, his frustration evident.
"Ater, this thing you summoned—it's destroying everything… just like that creature back then. Are you sure you can control it?"
Ater shrugged nonchalantly. "Relax, Master. The Horror Specter is doing exactly what I summoned it to do—test her limits. Besides, this is a good learning experience for you. Pay attention."
Up above, Seraph clenched her staff tightly, her golden wings blazing with energy.
"I've had enough of this!" she roared, her voice reverberating across the continent.
