I didn't answer. My focus was absolute. "Explode," I said again, louder this time.
The three walls surrounding me shuddered and burst apart, shattering into fragments of blood and broken law. Crimson mist filled the air, and the sound of tearing Essence echoed like thunder.
I raised my voice once more. "Explode!"
The fortress behind Vaelix began to shake violently. The countless Essence signatures inside it responded to my will, vibrating and collapsing in on themselves until, in a single instant, a massive explosion tore it apart. The shockwave rippled through the bridge, nearly knocking him off his feet.
I looked straight at him. "Vaelix, your domain's greatest weakness is Essence itself. And when I'm here, Essence doesn't obey you, it obeys me."
