SLASHHH!
The blow came without warning, slicing through James's figure. For a brief second, the world itself paused. The air trembled. The sound of the cut rang louder than thunder. Then…
BOOOOOOOM!
The explosion split the ground wide open.
Kael reappeared behind James with a click of his tongue. "Tsk… What a shrewd bastard."
James had already moved, his body flickering to safety before the blade could land fully. He stood a few meters away now, eyes locked on Kael. "You're good."
Kael grinned like a maniac. "So are you."
"Come on then." James licked his lips, his voice deep and twisted. "Tonight, I'll bathe in your blood. And that slut's too. I'll sacrifice everyone here to cleanse myself… and then I'll slaughter that bastard."
Kael's smile widened. His grip tightened on his blade. His eyes burned like a demon.
Both men moved.
In a blink, their bodies vanished.
BOOOOOOM!
