With one flap, it reached directly above the Pilan Twin Bears. Strangely, when the goshawk extended its sharp talons gleaming with cold light and raked downward through the air, it did not strike at the head closest to its claws.

The Pilan Twin Bears' face had long since drained of color. Sensing the fierce wind at their back, they immediately changed direction and accelerated. The goshawk's strike missed, and it opened its beak, letting out another furious shriek! With that cry, the Pilan Twin Bears' body stalled slightly. In that blink of an eye, the goshawk's two talons struck together. The defensive yellow talisman on the Pilan Twin Bears was like paper pasted together; it did not even flash before being torn apart!
Then the goshawk's talons plunged deeply into the Pilan Twin Bears' back. With a miserable cry of "Ah—," the Pilan Twin Bears' body was actually ripped into two halves. Their organs and chunks of flesh instantly scattered through the air, only to be blown apart by the fierce mountain wind and rain down in all directions!
