The rumbling explosion rang in his ears, and the scorching air currents wrapped in shock waves overturned Libel all at once. He felt a burst of dizziness, and then he lost control of his body.
Libel's vision was in chaos, he felt like a bag of trash, crashing erratically in the fierce wind. Amidst the repeated impacts, severe pain came from various parts of his limbs, as if several bones were broken, and there might have been massive internal bleeding.
Damn it, Libel complained with his remaining consciousness, knowing those Bloodthirsty would self-destruct, they should have been killed at a safe distance... No choice. If he hadn't filled the gap, that Bloodthirsty would have breached the gap and entered the Fortress of the Morning Wind.
"Cough... cough..."
Libel stopped rolling, struggled to open his eyes, and his view was stained red with blood. The pervasive dark clouds obscured the sunlight, and only patches of fire were left burning.
