The air cracked with pressure as Leon and Elizabeth vanished, flickering out of sight just as Eleanor's master unleashed a storm of corrupted energy. The black wave tore through the ground where they'd stood, scorching the stone and cratering the earth. But the couple had already reappeared at a safe distance, Leon dashed ahead, blade in hand, and Elizabeth behind, her hands already weaving necrotic symbols into the air.
Without a word, Leon surged forward like a missile, the ground exploding beneath each step. Behind him, Elizabeth lifted her arms and summoned her undead skeletal warriors, rotting hounds, and ghastly phantoms erupted from the shadows and charged alongside him.
Eleanor's master responded instantly, their hands flaring with black lightning as a swarm of crackling demonic spheres spun into existence around them. With a flick, the orbs shot forward, twisting through the air like angry hornets, locking onto Leon with deadly precision.
Leon didn't flinch.
