Alexa, with her twin swords, dashed forward with full force, while Vireya, bruised and bloodied, picked up a dagger from the floor, her sharp eyes never leaving her opponent.
They both let out a yell as they rushed toward each other, weapons ready.
Then, with a loud clash of metal and the sound of wind cutting around them, their weapons stopped—just inches away from each other's throats.
Alexa's twin blades crossed tightly against Vireya's neck, while Vireya's dagger hovered right at Alexa's collar.
Both women froze, breathing hard, eyes locked.
But then—BOOM!
An enormous explosion shook the entire battlefield, and a shockwave of wind burst through the sky.
Both Alexa and Vireya turned their heads at the same time, startled.
They saw Gideon and Lee Min Joon, the necromancer, flying at high speed above the ships—heading toward the smoke and flames in the distance.Vireya quickly leapt back, flipping midair and landing a few meters away. She gave Alexa a quick smirk.
