The sword remained suspended less than an inch from my chest, yet Sovereign Abyssal Darkness could not push it even a fraction farther.

Instead, they were the ones standing helplessly before me.
I decided I had seen enough.
My hands slowly came together. The moment my palms touched, the Fire Origin within me began to tremble.
A small point of light appeared above my head.
