*BOOOOOMMM!!!*
"!!!"
The explosion rattled the entire villa, strong enough to shake the foundations despite Luna's magical reinforcement.
Aurelia's combat instincts activated instantly, her embarrassment forgotten as she shot to her feet.
Her golden eyes immediately locked onto the direction of the disturbance.
Thick smoke rose from the distant clearing, far from the village proper.
And more concerning, an oppressive crimson power leaked from the epicenter.
A presence so strong it made even her divine senses warn of immense danger.
'That energy...'
Her mind immediately recalled Nero's words from earlier this morning, when he'd briefly checked on her before the meeting.
"I'll be summoning another card later today. You should rest."
She'd been too exhausted to say anything, barely managing a sleepy nod before he'd left.
Looking at the location of that explosion and feeling that overwhelming presence...
*Whoosh!*
