Chapter 344: Kyle Vs Azriel
As Azriel finished speaking, Kyle’s eyes narrowed, his gaze locked onto the old man with a mixture of suspicion and hostility. "You’re going to take the Heart of the Abyss?" he repeated, his voice dripping with skepticism. "I don’t think so."
Azriel’s eyes widened slightly, a hint of surprise flickering across his face. "Kyle, I assure you, I have the best intentions," he said, his voice calm and soothing.
But Kyle was having none of it. His lips curled into a snarl, he took a step forward, his eyes flashing with a dark, shadowy energy. "You’re a celestial," he spat, his voice venomous. "You think I don’t know what that means? You’re a servant of the light, and I’m a demon. We’re natural enemies."
The group’s eyes widened as Kyle’s shadowy energy began to swirl around him, tendrils of darkness creeping across the floor. Azriel, sensing the danger, raised his hands, a beam of light bursting forth to counter Kyle’s darkness.
"You don’t understand, Kyle," Azriel said, his voice firm but still calm. "I’m trying to help."
But Kyle was beyond reason. With a roar, he launched himself at Azriel, his shadowy energy coalescing into a massive, twisted blade that slashed at the old man.
Azriel, his eyes flashing with light, raised his hands, and a burst of celestial energy exploded forth, sending Kyle flying across the room.
The group gasped, their eyes wide with shock, as Kyle scrambled to his feet, his eyes blazing with fury.
"You think you can defeat me, old man?" he snarled, his voice dripping with malevolence. "I’ll show you what a demon is capable of."
As Kyle charged forward, the room erupted into chaos, shadow and light clashing in a spectacular display of power. The group stumbled back, their eyes locked onto the battle, unsure of what to do.
