*Slap!*
With a loud, shocking sound, the whip hit dead center in Darian's palm. Under everyone's stunned gaze, he just grabbed it.
The next second, the whip suddenly ignited in purple flames, which instantly spread along his arm.
"Hahaha... what!?"
Eulalia froze mid-laugh. The purple flame on Darian's arm abruptly went out.
No matter how much energy she tried to pour into it — she couldn't reignite it... let alone pull the whip back.
Darian yanked the whip hard. His body was still boosted with some of the power from his stars, even if it wouldn't last much longer.
She, on the other hand, had already burned through most of her energy. Against that strength — which she couldn't resist — she lost control of the weapon.
The whip was now in Darian's hand. Then he waved it and immediately gave it a try.
Losing her weapon left Eulalia momentarily stunned. When the whip came flying back at her, she gasped in surprise and tried to dodge with everything she had left.
