Confusion spread instantly.
"What?"
Before anyone could react, Wade slowly raised his hand.
Between his fingers was a strange black nail, long, sharp, and unnaturally dark, as if it absorbed all light around it.
He calmly fitted it onto his finger.
The moment the others saw it, their expressions twisted in horror.
"No… that's!"
Wade chuckled softly, his voice laced with mockery. "Sorry, beggars… but your end is near."
Before anyone could stop him, he dragged the nail across the invisible barrier.
A deep crack formed instantly.
Until now, they had only been dealing with external pressure.
But this...this was internal damage.
The teachers' eyes widened in shock. "Stop him!"
They rushed toward Wade. But he was faster.
With a simple snap of his fingers, his figure blurred and reappeared in another spot within the protective circle.
Again, he raised his hand. Again, he slashed.
The barrier groaned, fractures spreading like spiderwebs.
