The sky turned dark in a instant.
Aestrea's brow furrowed hard as a strange, red-purple mist began leaking from Kagetaro's body, curling into the air like smoke from a dying fire.
Then Kagetaro's body jolted violently.
He twitched, spasmed, his muscles jerking out of sync.
Veins bulged under his skin,sick, pulsing bumps crawling across his arms and neck like something alive was moving beneath.
Aestrea narrowed his eyes.
"...The fuck are you trying to do?"
Seeing this, Aestrea didn't waste any time, and flicked his wrist.
『 ✯ Winter Series ✯: Chains of Eternal Winter! (✯ 7th-level Spell ✯) 』
Fwip!
Within a second, he summoned over a hundred glacial chains, each one snapping through the air like a whip before slamming down on Kagetaro, binding his arms, legs, torso, even his throat.
Fsshh!
The magic hissed cold, biting into flesh, dragging the temperature around them below freezing.
But it wasn't enough.
