Chapter 562: Night (2)
Arrows struck both of Noir's eyes. Hundreds more arrows followed through and pierced through Noir’s body. In just a moment, she looked like a porcupine with hundreds of needles sticking out of her.
Naturally, these were no ordinary arrows. The arrows created from soul power carried an absolute force, even without having to intend it.
They were imbued solely with the intent to kill. The obliteration of Noir Giabella was the only purpose imbued within the arrows, and hundreds of such sharps had been thrust into her.
Sienna gasped as her soul returned to her body. The shock awakened her from forced slumber. This method couldn't entirely avoid forced slumber, but it could prevent the much worse fate of being trapped in Oneiric Cascade. Even for Sienna, being dragged into a dream while asleep would leave her with no recourse.
That was why she had separated her body and soul. The moment she fell asleep, she had temporarily rendered her body lifeless. Not even Noir could induce dreams in a dead adversary.
However, this was not a method that could be used repeatedly. Not only was the strain of revival burdensome, but repeated separations could gradually weaken the connection between her body and soul. Eventually, she might separate her soul from her body and never return, which would effectively be the same as dying.
‘Still, it's possible,’ Sienna surmised.
Destroying the city's nightmare had been effective. The dream Noir had imposed on the city was still in a disarray. Otherwise, even with her soul separated, Sienna would have been trapped in the city's dream.
The dream Noir was now showing operated only within the consciousness of one person instead of the entire city. Although repeating it could indeed become a form of suicide, Sienna still had an answer to Noir’s attack.
