The only sound that could be heard was the rushing chilly winds all around us.
The Celestial had gone quiet at my declaration. Out of rage? Out of shock? I had no idea.
"Hah! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" Yet before I could complete my thoughts, the man burst into manic laughter.
"Hilarious! Truly! What more could I expect from a mortal? To spew such blasphemous words and sophistry."
I kept quiet, letting the man let it out.
"Take my divine aspect? Take my wings? Foolish! You have yet to make a dent in my divine shield and yet you harbor the idea of taking my aspect? What gives you such confidence, mortal?"
"Ahh… I see it now. I'm not surprised." I shook my head.
"What is it, mortal? What sophistry do you wish to speak now?"
"Not sophistry…" I had already appeared before the man, with Elira's glinting form descending…
CLANG!!!!
The same outcome. My attack had been blocked, and then…
BANG!!
His sword connected cleanly.
I didn't budge. He retreated.
