An Extra’s POV

~FWIIIIISH!~

Twin burning slashes marked themselves into space as they landed upon the barrier.

The force alone caused Fenrir to be pushed back, so he simply recoiled in the air and landed a few meters away from his enemy—right before charging back again.

Once again, he did the same, slashing and hacking the barrier with unbelievable speed.

He kept this up, almost as one who had infinite stamina, just waiting for the moment the barrier would wear down.
