*crack!
Jinn cracked his sword forward, unleashing a roaring wave of crimson eidra that tore through the air toward the ten soldiers barring his path.
The wave howled like an unchained beast, each ripple thrumming with destructive intent, until it finally collided against their formation.
"Tch!" One of the soldiers—a tall man with long, dark hair whipping wildly behind him—
stepped forward without hesitation, planting his stance with the weight of an unyielding wall.
His massive two-handed sword, engraved with faint blue runes, swung up and caught the brunt of Jinn's attack.
*CLASH!
The air split with a deafening crack as crimson and azure clashed violently, sparks and raw energy spilling out like molten shards.
For several heartbeats, Jinn's wave pushed against the man's blade, the ground beneath them groaning and cracking under the sheer pressure.
But the soldier did not falter.
With a sharp, practiced twist, he redirected the surge
*Tsssssssss!
