The clash raged on, the air quaking under every strike of divine power.
Kana's barrier trembled, cracked, and reformed again as the wolf goddess pressed against her with a relentless hunger.
Her arms shook, her chest burned, and every nerve in her body screamed in agony.
Still, she refused to back down.
The goddess's claws dug into her shield of light, sparks scattering like embers in the wind.
Kana pushed back, forcing her own power to flare brighter, higher, more desperate. The ground split beneath their feet, the battlefield collapsing into chaos.
The system's sharp tone rang in her ears.
[Warning.Hostisapproachinglimit.Warning. Host is approaching limit.Warning.Hostisapproachinglimit.]
[Systemadvisesimmediatedisengagement.System advises immediate disengagement.Systemadvisesimmediatedisengagement.]
Kana's eyes burned as she stared at the wolf goddess.
"If I let go now, she'll destroy everything. Don't tell me to stop!"
