Nothing could have prepared them all for what came next – not the Stars, Troops, and Void users aboard Amanas, or the sentries gearing up every offensive and defensive tool at their disposal against the incoming Null Devil King.
Skullius didn't give the latter time to respond. Even if, by some bizarre grace, the sentries were capable of reacting faster than Skullius could attack, they wouldn't have been able to see the nature of his offense.
In and Mu, the conduits for Skullius' [Circuit of Impunity] were hidden by his ability to shroud anything he wanted in darkness, masking it from most eyes. Thus, when the two creatures – one, a mutinous devil, and the other, a warm-faced angel – began revolving around the Hybrid Warmoth in a radius that kept growing wider and wider until it was over seven thousand kilometers, the sentries saw nothing.
