Rumble—
Thunderous crashes rang out one after another.
The blood-colored patterns shattered inch by inch.
Chunks of stone crumbled and fell without cease.
The grey crystal at the very top, caught between the two forces,

"As long as we uproot all these Secondary Altars,"
"the Abnormal Clan's supplies and resurrection will both suffer greatly."
She
