—Frey Starlight's Pov—
"On that day, I stared into the abyss… and the abyss stared back at me."
The fight against Zibar was different.
Different from anything I've suffered through so far.
It wasn't the first time I'd stood before a presence vastly stronger than me .. I'd met the Engineer, Gehrman… and I'd once felt the nearness of the Sixth High Demon, Asmodeus.
I've spent my life defying giants.
But this was the first time I had to battle one of them to the death.
And it was hell.
Even with only half his power, Zibar overwhelmed me completely, a brutal reminder of what the Ten High Ranks truly are ..beings that exist on an entirely different plane.
Nameless Judgement was the only strike that dealt him real damage. Everything else I threw at him barely scratched him.
He, on the other hand, tore my body apart again and again ..then even shut down my regeneration.
