Facing Harbor's devastating attack, General Sost could only force himself to hold on.
Moments later, his body was already covered in wounds, his face twisted with pain. But still, he refused to retreat.
Sost's persistence left Harbor deeply surprised.
"You really are different from those generals of the Stellar Empire. Under normal circumstances, I would truly admire you. But since we're enemies, I have no choice but to strike you down."
Harbor did respect men like Sost who fought to the death. But the fact remained—they were on opposite sides, and respect didn't matter in battle.
This time, Harbor decided to act personally.
The Angel of Light could easily kill Sost, but if it wasted too much energy now, it wouldn't be able to quickly merge the power of the Gem of Light into itself later. That would be a serious problem for Harbor's plan.
