Without delaying any further, Malekh pulled his swords from dimensional storage. In his right hand, a blade appeared that looked like Exgrandal, and in his left, one that mirrored Exelion, except both their blades were pitch black.
"Come then," Malekh said, issuing the challenge.
Ard and Eva glanced at each other and shared a nod. Without hesitation, they lunged forward to strike. Ard raised his hand and leveled his sword; a massive black chain wrapped in a dark aura erupted from the tip of Exgrandal, instantly binding Malekh's body. He surged forward, raising his sword with both hands alongside Eva, who lunged with Exelion at his side. But Malekh only smiled.
"Hah... don't think something like this can stop me... haaaaaah," he said, his voice sounding horrific.
