"I could command the undead knights here… but I don't need them. Forty monsters… it might be fun." He grinned darkly. "Though I'll probably get injured if I fight them all. I've already wasted too much LP today."
The barrier around them pulsed, shimmering under the assault of beasts slamming against it. Raito frowned. "And maintaining this shield isn't helping either. I've never tried to fight while holding a barrier before."
He took a slow breath. "There's only one thing left to do."
Raito closed his eyes — then opened them, a sharp gleam flickering within. He turned to Kira.
"Like I said before… don't you dare tell anyone what you're about to see."
"W-what?" Kira asked, confused.
"When it's time," Raito said quietly, "you'll understand."
He extended his arm forward, mana swirling violently around him like a storm. The air thickened — space itself trembled.
"Undead dragon," Raito commanded, his voice deep and resonant.
"I release you… from the Hunter's Domain."
