Selene gritted her teeth partly fury, mostly raw strain. Her legs trembled beneath the weight of the spectral titan-form she maintained.
"You"
She tried to snarl back at Yuuto, but the words were stuck in her throat.
Because she saw something.
A flicker of silver light.
Yuuto's hand moved almost lazily.
SHHHNK—!
One of his spears materialized in a burst of condensed mana, slicing clean through the left spectral arm of her titan form.
The massive, transparent limb DISINTEGRATED, bursting into purple fragments.
Selene's breath hitched.
"No!"
Her balance wavered.
Her knees buckled.
The remaining arm strained wildly to compensate, but—
CRRRRRAAAAAACK—
The building lurched, unsupported.
Civilians screamed.
"THE ARM, IT'S GONE!"
"She's falling!"
"MOVE! THE BUILDING'S COMING DOWN!"
Selene reached out desperately with what little power she had left, but her entire exoshell sputtered with warning glyphs.
Yuuto hovered beside her, his expression calm.
Almost bored.
