Sybill gritted her teeth as dark blood slowly seeped from the corner of her lips.
She quickly wiped it away with the back of her hand, refusing to let anyone see even a hint of weakness.
"Impossible..." she muttered.
She had expected the black pearl to grant her overwhelming power, yet Azul's control over the ocean was far stronger than she had imagined.
Every dark mist she summoned was swallowed by his currents, and every Dark Entity she created was met by another Demon Sea Beast answering his call.
On the other side, Azul slowly swam toward her. Powerful ocean currents circled around his body, forming a shield so strong that the black mist couldn't get anywhere near him.
The Kingdom of Aquillian, once filled with colorful coral, lively streets, and countless sea beastkin, had been reduced to nothing but ruins.
The homes that had once been full of laughter were now piles of broken stone. The people Sybill had claimed to protect had never been saved at all.
