The raised hand waved gently, the expression like dismissing something that had lost its use, "Besides, you don't actually think you can defy the true ruler of this plane, do you?"
An invisible force flung the massive body of Black Steel into the air, its wings bound by that force, unable to maneuver in midair. He got further and further away from the treehouse, with the chilling words of the Red-haired Girl still lingering in his ears, "Everything you've experienced, I've witnessed; every person you've met, every event you've encountered, only happened with my permission."
Black Steel plummeted straight down, and he saw someone pass by him.
That person was riding on the back of a golden divine bird, heading straight for the treehouse.
"Boom—!"
His body made contact with the ground, instantly creating a deep pit on the surface.
However…
He did not feel the slightest pain.
The invisible force that bound him also protected him.
