—Ethan's POV—
"Night Lord's Aura!!"
I charged forward in a fury, unleashing Night Lord's Aura and allowing it to engulf my entire body. A black radiance burned across my Night Armor before spreading to the Executioner's Sword as well, covering the enormous blade in the same ominous glow.
Night Lord's Aura multiplied my speed and strength several times over, but the price was immediate. My defenses dropped to the equivalent of just 1 HP, leaving me in a state dangerously similar to the Golden Dawn Knight.
The knight quickly pulled his sword from Asterion's back and turned his crimson eyes toward me. Although I had charged at him with everything I had, hoping to exploit the opening created by his attack on the old man, he twisted his body around at a terrifying speed, completely negating the advantage I had gained.
