Ethan was practically screaming inside.
This was it. The moment. He felt it in his bones—even as his body trembled, hollowed out like a dry well.
He could barely stay on his feet, let alone summon another Energy Disc.
But he wasn't fighting alone.
"Kaelira—!"
He barely got the name out before a streak of pink light flashed past him.
She didn't need the call.
FWIP!
Kaelira shot forward like a thunderbolt, zeroing in on the Butcher King before he could recover.
THUD.
THUD.
THUD.
Each punch landed with the full weight of her remaining strength, pink energy bursting in the air like a storm of blades.
Then—
BOOOOOOM.
The entire cavern shook.
Kaelira's power condensed into a razor-sharp blade of light, and with one clean arc, she severed the Butcher King's arm at the shoulder.
A heartbeat later, a tidal wave of pink energy crashed down, engulfing him completely.
