The glow ahead of me grew brighter and larger until it filled my vision. In the next instant, I was right in front of it, seconds away from impact. I tightened my fist and thrust it forward with all my strength.
"[Lightning Rend]."
A focused beam of lightning burst from my hand, wrapped in thin, tearing cracks of space. It screeched through the air and ripped open a hole in the planet's protective barrier.
Whoosh!!
I shot through the gap like a lightning bolt, the rush of heat and energy washing over me as I broke into Sukra's atmosphere. The winds roared around me, but I kept my body steady, descending rapidly until I stopped myself mid-air with a sudden pull of Essence.
Three seconds later, Dante emerged from the rift behind me. He hovered a few meters away, breathing hard. I turned toward him and grinned.
He let out a long exhale and shook his head slowly. "How strong is your body?"
I laughed lightly, sparks flickering along my arm. "Really strong."
