WHOOOM! Crack!
The force field exerted more force as it pressed down on Mayla, cracking even the ground underneath her. From Behind Mayla, Seth finally opened his eyes.
"Mom, are you okay? What's happening?" said Seth afraid while looking at her mom. Before, Mayla had told Seth not to open his eyes and stay calm and had put him inside a fire capsule to protect him, from where he couldn't see or hear anything. However, now that Mayla was concentrating on the new attacker, the capsule had dissipated. Seth looked around.
"Mom, why's there so much blood on the floor?" He noticed the corpses lying on the ground "Are those dead people? Mom?" By now Seth was already panicking. However, when he looked in front of him what he saw paralyzed him in fear.
From the smoke, two glowing blue eyes were looking directly at them. At that moment a primal fear born from his survival instinct took hold of him. All his body screamed at him that there was no doubt that whatever was ahead could kill him with a wave of its hand.
The smoke began dissipating and a man in his early twenties could be seen. He wore a black and white uniform and his eyes were glowing blue as he had an extended arm. "Is this all you've got "Demon Phoenix"?, I've been waiting so long to make your acquaintance that this is truly disappointing. So many years hidden made you weak." He said while smirking "At least try to entertain me before dying".
"Adam Wagner, Lux Aeterna's special forces leader, to what do I owe this pleasure?"
"Don't play dumb, you know what we came for. You made a good job keeping it hidden all these years but it's over. Give it to us and no one else will get hurt. I'd hate to kill that lovely child of yours in front of you." Adam Wagner said, his gaze turned dark.
Four more people appeared from behind the man, they were all control stage espers. They wore all black and red uniforms and had black masks on.
'Five control stage epers and at least one has a high-ranked state, the rest must have at least medium-ranked states, this doesn't look good' Mayla thought "Seth, I need you to do something for me. I'll distract them, meanwhile, I need you to run as fast as you can. Run and whatever you do, don't look back. You see the dome that has been placed around us?" Mayla looked at the giant dome flowing with energy that was above them, it had a radius of around five blocks "It avoids anything to get in or out, I'll take it down, you focus on running to the edge and getting out. When you get out, keep running for at least another five blocks and hide as best as you can, and don't come out, no matter what you hear. Can you do that honey?"
"Y-Yes, but mom, what's happening, what about you?" Seth asked, even though he was frightened he trusted his mother.
"I'll be right behind you. When I give you the signal you start running. I love you" Said Mayla as she turned around to look at the attackers again. 'It's been a long time, I don't think I will be able to hold them long enough, but I have to, even if my body is ripped apart in the process, I'll go all out' Mayla thought, then said "Release". Suddenly, golden shining runes began running through Mayla's body. For the first time in a long time, the seal had been released, revealing one of the most worldwide feared states, the Black Phoenix State, an S-ranked state, Mayla Fireborn's triumph card.
The air filled with energy as the runes shone brighter and Mayla's body exuded pure power. "Phase 2"
CRACK!
With those words, the force field broke under the pressure of Mayla's power. A pair of mighty fire wings began forming on Mayla's back as she stood up. Golden shining runes could be seen all over her body and a pair of golden marks also appeared under her eyes, while these began shining, looking like a pair of burning fireballs.
"This time you overestimated your own power. Today I shall deliver you judgment, Adam Wagner. Today marks Publish the beginning of the end for Lux Aeterna" Mayla said. The pressure she exuded was almost tangible.
WHOOSH!
She unsheathed her sword which automatically caught ablaze, then pointed it at the five men. A fierce look could be seen on her face.
