Stellar Echo: Heart of the Myst

The sudden comment from Erik took the 3 young ladies by surprise, who looked at him a bit confused, not really understanding what he meant. At that moment, Tiberius hid in the shadow of the star-haired boy, while he extended his left hand, resting it on Kaiser's neck.

At the same time, the imposing column of light that pierced the sky dimmed slightly, revealing within it the silhouette of a majestic staff that floated, defying gravity, at the center of the column. This immediately drew the attention of all the participants, including the 3 young ladies, which made Erik smile.

While all the participants were distracted, in an instant, Erik metamorphosed into an entity of pure energy with Kaiser's help, becoming a sort of human-shaped lightning bolt that held by the neck an imposing two-meter-tall wolf. And, before anyone could realize it, he hurled himself toward the column of light at a speed that defied all perception, leaving an electrical trail in his wake.

Just before Erik struck the column of light at a blinding speed, the Myst began to swirl around him, then condensed, forming a kind of impenetrable barrier that surrounded him like a halo of invisible force. Moments later, he collided head-on with the column right at its center.

With the help of the help of the Myst defense he had created, Erik penetrated the column of light, almost as if he were a divine arrow. At that moment, he took hold of the staff and continued his flight at such an incredible speed that, in a matter of mere instants, he disappeared from sight, leaving everyone present in shock and without any chance to react.

A moment later, all the participants slowly began to rationalize what had just happened, left speechless. Some stared, stunned, at the column of light that was slowly fading with a huge hole in its center, while others turned to look at where Erik had stood just a moment ago. Only to find three beautiful women who looked around with the same expression of stupefaction as the others. Meanwhile, the wolves and the dragon that had accompanied that cunning bastard were nowhere to be seen.

Likewise, some of the participants began to pick up their weapons and organize teams, casting looks filled with ill intent at the three young ladies who accompanied the cunning bastard, causing bitter smiles to appear on the women's faces. At the same time, they looked at each other wordlessly, but after nodding to each other, they quickly took up their weapons and two magic circles appeared in the air. The magic circles created a great explosion and a brilliant flash that blinded everyone's senses.

"Quick, chase them!! They are the key to recovering the staff!!!"

With the cry of a female voice, a horde of participants flung themselves into the air to pursue the three young ladies, who fled with all their might. Even in that situation, the trio did not forget to turn and throw venomous glares at the sensual blue-haired woman who had spoken, who merely smiled with confidence and coquettishness.
