'Now!'
But Aziz didn't care and stepped forward. The finishing strike was coming.
Amon's shadow spread widely from his legs. It dashed toward Aziz, wrapping itself around his legs and crawling upward over his body.
Aziz narrowed his eyes as the cold, liquid-like shadow started to creep over him at great speed.
"What the heck is this?!" he exclaimed, flustered for a second. It was the first time he had seen something like this.
But it didn't stop him. He still brought his sword, covered in fire, down at Amon. Because of the shadow, he was a little late.
That was enough for Amon to slide away from that position.
The sword met the empty ground where Amon had been lying a second ago.
Thud!
BOOM!
A loud explosion occurred at that spot. Dust and debris blasted everywhere.
The surroundings became impossible to see because of the smoke and dust.
