Meanwhile, Frey immediately reabsorbed the aura he had just unleashed back into his body.
"Deadly strikes… and the ability to preserve his aura reserves without wasting them…"
Thanatos' face slowly twisted into a thrilled smile.
"Amazing!"
"You will make a magnificent addition to my undead army!"
Thanatos raised his hand.
The blue flames gathered together ...
Forming a massive scythe of aura, its blade extending well beyond three meters.
Gripping the weapon, he lunged forward and cleaved down toward Frey.
Frey countered with a swift slash of his sword—
But Thanatos' aura overwhelmed him instantly.
In the blink of an eye—
Frey's upper body was severed cleanly from his lower half.
"…What?"
Frey stared in disbelief at what had just happened.
Thanatos burst into laughter.
"Submit!"
He swung the scythe again.
But threads of aura erupted from Frey's severed torso, forcibly pulling his body back together and regenerating the damage.
