Quickening his pace, Shade raised his right arm and slashed fiercely at the sky. The arcing blade of dazzling silver light split the Vampire Beast diving downward cleanly in two along the seam of its body.
As blood sprayed and the corpse hit the ground, Shade, having leapt from the street, had already reached high into the air. He stepped on a floating card with his right foot to launch himself, then used a second jump to rise even higher. Crossing his arms before his chest, his body transformed amid the fire-reddened sky into a massive silver moonlight cross, wiping out the enormous swarm of bats attempting to attack the citizens putting out the fires.
When he landed once more on the streets of the burning district, he looked up and saw a Ring Arcanist with wings growing from his back descend from the battle raging overhead and land on the street as well.
The wings on his back were dragon wings, but his face was shriveled like a dehydrated corpse, with two pointed fangs protruding from his mouth.
"Dragonborn Bloodkin?"
Shade asked with a frown. Behind the Ring Arcanist, an eight-ring Destiny Ring had already emerged:
"Stranger, this is between us and the Orthodox Church. Do not meddle."
"Doing something like this in the city—are you really not afraid of dying?"
As he spoke, Shade once again transformed into silver moonlight with Moonlight Slash Fourth Form and charged forward. The Dragonborn Bloodkin raised both hands and, unexpectedly, transformed into a crimson blood cross that surged toward him:
"Then die!"
The silver and crimson crosses shot forward, meeting head-on in the middle of the street against the backdrop of burning buildings and cries for help all around them.
After a thunderous boom, moonlight and Blood Mist seemed to merge together.
