Alexander the Red moved again, slowly raising his massive head, as if what had happened had been nothing more than fleeting amusement to him. His red eyes slid over us one by one, then stopped on Zion's body lying on the ground.
Then… he smiled.
It was not a human smile, but a slight bend of his jaws, a primitive movement filled with deadly mockery.
— Hssss…
A low scraping sound came from his throat, a sound that sent shivers through our bodies.
Lina moved instinctively toward Zion, her eyes wide, her face pale like a corpse.
"Zion… Zion!"
But before she could reach him, the ground suddenly shook.
— Boooom!
Columns of dirt and rock rose from beneath our feet, and the battlefield turned into complete chaos. I was thrown backward, spinning in the air before landing with difficulty, while Alisa slammed into the ground several meters away, and a muffled scream escaped Gina's mouth as she struggled to keep her balance.
Alexander was using the earth element without mercy.
