Chapter 249 No more fear(3)
The energy hit the shadow directly, its form convulsing and writhing as the thunder coursed through it. Kyra’s eyes burned with fierce determination as she kept pushing the energy forward, not allowing the shadow a moment of reprieve. She felt the power surge from her core, raw and untamed, as if it was an extension of her will.
The shadow tried to pull back, but it was too late. The energy was relentless, burning away its darkness, tearing it apart bit by bit. The once-threatening entity began to break down, its form disintegrating under the intensity of Kyra’s attack.
With a final surge of power, Kyra’s thunder reached its peak, and the shadow let out a last, ear-piercing wail before it crumbled into ash. The air sizzled with the aftershock of her power, tiny sparks dancing around the room as the ash slowly settled on the floor.
Kyra stood there, her chest heaving as she lowered her hands, watching as the last remnants of the shadow disappeared into nothingness. The threat was gone, reduced to nothing but dust in the wind. She took a deep breath, her body humming with the lingering energy of her power.
It was over.
The shadow was dead, obliterated by the very force it had underestimated. Kyra looked at the faint trail of ash on the floor, a small but powerful smile tugging at the corners of her lips.
She wasn’t the frightened girl who used to tremble in the face of danger anymore. She was someone far stronger—someone who could fight back and win.
’That’s amazing, Kyra!’ her beast shouted in excitement. ’More practice... the more powerful you’ll become,’ it continued, practically vibrating with joy in her mind.
Kyra allowed herself a small smile at her beast’s enthusiasm but was quickly brought back to reality by Lucas’s concerned voice.
"Ky Ky?" His voice was soft, and when she turned to face him, both he and Damon were already awake, their eyes full of questions.
Lucas’s brow furrowed with worry. "What happened? I heard some strange sounds, but I couldn’t wake up... It was like something was keeping me down." His silver eyes scanned her, looking for any sign that something was wrong.
Damon, with his more stoic expression, had his arms crossed, but Kyra could tell from his tense stance that he was just as disturbed. "I had a similar experience," he said, his voice low but calm as he walked closer. "Do you think it’s the same person who’s been sending beasts and shadows after us? Are they trying a different approach now?"
