"My master modified it. Your consciousness has been erased, and your will no longer exists within this sword. It is my sword now, not yours."
Knull clenched his left hand into a fist. Dark red energy gathered around it, forming an ever-growing, spinning sphere of energy.
Black lightning crackled across the sphere's surface, vaporizing holes in the surrounding Chaos Magic.
"Loren Morgan thinks he can erase my existence. He thinks he can take my sword from me. He thinks he can hide behind women and let you fight for him.
He was wrong. I will kill him. I will turn the three of you into Symbiote hosts. I will make the Necrosword acknowledge its master once more.
I will let this universe know the consequences of angering Knull." Knull said furiously, then pushed the energy sphere forward.
The energy sphere flew toward Eve—not in a straight line, but in a zigzag.
As it flew, it constantly changed direction, leaving countless dark red afterimages in Chaos Space.
Every afterimage represented a possible attack trajectory, making it impossible to predict where the real energy sphere would strike.
At that moment, Wanda moved. Her hands traced a massive magic circle through the air, and a thick red beam shot from its center, striking the energy sphere.
The two energies collided in midair and exploded into a huge red-and-black energy vortex.
The vortex spun through Chaos Space, devouring the surrounding energy clouds as it grew larger and more unstable.
Knull did not wait to see the result of the energy sphere. His body turned into a streak of dark red light and vanished from where he stood.
The next second, he appeared behind Wanda, his right hand clenched into a fist as he smashed it toward her back.
