The Puppet Wraith's newly formed divine tentacle swayed slightly, emitting a divine glimmer of "tranquility" and "order" that silently neutralized the approaching sound waves.
This was somewhat contradictory to the Puppet Wraith's appearance, like an evil ghost radiating holy light.

Wu Heng followed closely behind Crowley, moving through the intricate prism maze as if walking on level ground.

The other's power rested on an extremely solid foundation. He was certainly not some lucky fellow who had stumbled upon a sudden opportunity.

Green hellfire burned atop the walls, while countless fierce-eyed demon guards patrolled the camp.
