Inside the barrier, Ethan moved toward Garrick once again, his sword firmly held in his hand as he prepared to attack. His eyes remained cold as he gathered his strength, but before he could get any closer, an invisible force suddenly struck him.
BOOOOM!
Ethan was swatted away as if he had been hit by something massive. His body flew through the air and crashed into the ground, creating a deep crater. Dust rose around him as he slid across the broken ground.
Ethan shook his head and slowly raised it.
His eyes immediately fell on Garrick.
But something had changed.
A figure was slowly condensing behind Garrick.
"What's going on?" Ethan asked as he looked around, trying to understand what was happening.
Then he noticed them.
Black-geared knights from various places seemed to be lining up behind Garrick. They stood completely still while holding their swords. Their bodies were covered in black armor, and there was not a single movement from them.
