What was a fierce battlefield just seconds ago, was now just ground filled with ruptures.
Pain filled groans still rang through.
On a terrace not too far away was a small group of animals and two humans slumped on the ground.
Many wrung on the floor, but even more laid or sat motionlessly.
They all looked at the dim sky.
Too tired to make a sound and too hurt to even try to move.
Everyone's faces were covered in red, but noone lost their life.
Not yet.
Darmine, who was protected by the collar's decoration looked around.
She scanned the field before her.
She was out of energy.
Her body was wholly destroyed, making her unable to do anything.
Darmine could barely move her golden eyes, her vision was slightly redder.
She was wondering what happened to Juny.
She, too, knew what those shackles represented.
She felt the power and the spirituality.
Drmine was one of the very few who truly understood Juny's backlashes.
Juny didn't bother hiding them from Darmine, so she saw it all.
Darmine saw Juny's body sway, her eyes haze, her nails dig into her palms to suppress the pain.
She saw her coughing blood out many times.
But what happened now was too much.
Noone would see it and not think of the consequences.
At least not someone who knew how Juny's powers worked.
One had a limit.
Juny was able to surpass this limit, but the price was never cheap.
If one couldn't handle it, death was inevitable.
Darmine looked on, anxiously awaiting the result.
...
Ellone stared up, her eyes flickering, but alive.
Her head painfully turned to the side.
She could see a tall lady, who always talked to others with a pleasing smile lying next to her.
Natia was curled up into a painful ball.
Her face was stained with still-flowing blood.
Ellone bit her lip, trying to reach out, but unable to.
Her muscles felt like they were tearing or already torn.
Just the thought of moving send pain into her very fibers.
Tears painfully flowed from her eyes.
She felt useless, she couldn't even speak out loud.
She couldn't help the kind woman who was shaking in pain.
Ellone closed her eyes shut, her heart aching.
She felt worthless, and there was nothing she could do.
...
Airina gently moved her fingers, stroking the cat's fur.
She was on her knees, even the slight movement of her fingertips was painful, but she continued to do so.
