Inside the Deadlock Dimension…
The moment Ethan dragged the Stoneborn Patriarch inside, he summoned Dopey and ordered him to attack.
He already knew what the man was going to say. There was no reason to listen to it again.
The Stoneborn Patriarch had barely entered the dimension when a figure charged toward him.
Without hesitation, he raised a hand and formed a shield in front of himself.
Boom!
The shield shattered, and both fighters were forced back several steps.
"A soulless thrall?"
The Stoneborn Patriarch stared in shock.
"How can a soulless thrall be this powerful?"
Dopey gave him no time to process it and attacked again.
The two immediately became locked in battle.
Ethan stayed well out of the way and watched. He couldn't even be bothered to use Silencing Gaze.
It wouldn't accomplish much anyway. Dopey couldn't kill this man, so Ethan might as well conserve his energy.
