Boom!
A massive explosion erupted as a five-meter fireball slammed into Malpash.
The surrounding buildings crumbled, black smoke billowing in every direction.
Merlin and Leina floated in the sky, their faces pale and worn from exhaustion.
"Is the demon dead?" Leina asked hesitantly.
Merlin opened the demon's status panel and saw that it was still alive.
Suddenly, his heart raced—danger was coming from the demon's position.
"Auntie, danger!" he shouted.
He grabbed Leina's wrist and cast an acceleration spell.
In an instant, they vanished from their original location.
Two seconds later, a flash of black light—like a laser—struck the spot they had just left.
The beam tore through the ground, turning everything in its path to ash.
Leina's heart pounded. She looked at Merlin, her voice trembling. "Thank you, Merlin. If it weren't for you, I don't even want to imagine what would've happened to me."
The attack had come so suddenly and so fast that she barely had time to react.
