Villain Ch 1840. Faith Doesn't Fly
Allen was already on him. His blade punched upward, sliding under Arcana's broken guard. The steel rammed through his gut, bursting out between his wings.
Arcana gasped, blood spraying across Allen's face. "Y-you—"
Allen leaned close, smile wide, eyes lit with manic cruelty. "Faith doesn't fly here."
He twisted the blade.
Arcana's scream turned into a choked gargle as blood poured from his mouth, wings spasming helplessly. His relic rose, trembling in the dark air.
Allen caught it with a flick of his hand.
[Player Arcana has been slain.]
[Item Reclaimed: Ember Crown of Valor.]
[Slain by: The Emperor.]
Arcana's body slipped free, wings folding inward as he plummeted toward the plaza, trailing blood like a falling star.
Three relics.
Three corpses.
The night sky belonged to the Emperor.
