The golden beam moved at incredible speed. By the time everyone saw it, it was already too late.
"Oh no! At that speed, there's no way those two can dodge!"
"I knew it. They made such a huge scene. There was no way this would end well."
"What a pity. Two young lives, gone just like that. Sigh…"
Just as the surrounding Awakeners thought Caelan and Alyssa were doomed, in the very next moment, a brilliant light suddenly flashed across the sky.
At the same time, it was as if some enormous creature was rolling and twisting inside the dark green smoke.
"Look over there!"
No one knew who shouted, but in the next instant, another golden beam of light flashed past like lightning tearing through the sky!
Only this time, the direction of the beam had been refracted in the complete opposite direction from before.
It felt as though the beam had struck a mirror and been reflected away.
