Daniel and Drael looked up at the sky.
The sky above the Crimson Temple cracked open. From the dense, sticky darkness that spread like a wound across the heavens, shadows with twisted, inhuman faces crawled out.
Their bodies were half-human, half-beast , horns, wings, and black-and-red skin that gleamed under the moonlight.
Their leader was the largest of them all. His face was skeletal, and his red eyes burned like twin flames. With a whispering voice, he said:
"The Crimson Temple… the false root of light. Tonight, it turns to ashes."
At that moment, a long howl tore through the air. Dozens of creatures burst out of the crack and dove toward the temple like lightning. The golden walls of the temple shook with every impact.
Priests rushed out from inside the temple. Their golden spells lit up, and halos of light filled the battlefield.
"In the name of God, vanish!"
[Holy Ray Barrage], Hundreds of golden beams fell from the sky, engulfing the monsters in burning light.
