Star Eater

Chapter 570: Chapter 570

Arthur's Point of View

Crawlana

"Still so defiant." I asked as I cocked my head slightly as I leaned in. "What would it take to break your spirit? You are strong, but without your water surrounding you, you are far below many others I've faced." More ice shot from her hands to try and freeze me over in vain. "You're getting very annoying very quickly."

"You'll run out of magic before I do." She replied.

A sigh left whatever manner of lips I had as I tightened my grip on her face. "Fine." Creating a gravity pillar beside us, I started to overlap it continually. "As much as I want to say, 'I didn't want to have to do this', inside, I'm rather glad." My strongest pillars continued to combine until a literal bend in space appeared beside us which alarmed the Aridian. "Do you have any idea what this is?"

Magic still filled the area. However, now that the Aridian's magic supply was lower, and not as suffocating, I noticed an ambient magic filled the area. It wasn't the water or her magic anymore. Instead, the temple seemed to be giving off some manner of magical pulse. While it was faint, I realized perhaps there was more to this temple than meets the eye.

Without hesitating, I pulled Defiance from my back and held it over the rift. Dropping it, Defiance plunged into the temple as it immediately disappeared. As if teleporting away, the temple began to crack and break apart. A massive hole where Defiance shot down appeared as spiderwebbed cracks shot through the stone. Parts began to crumble away as dust shot into the air.

The ground shook under my feet, but I merely stood there despite it starting to break away. To my surprise, the Aridian landed immediately on the temple. She looked horrified. No longer did she pay any attention to me as she placed her hands on the temple. Her magic began pouring into it and the destruction of the temple came to a halt as if time had some to a complete stop.

"What did you do!?" She yelled at me without looking.

In response, I held out my hand as Defiance tore its way back up through the temple and into my hand. "Interesting..." I commented.

Her guard was down, but she looked at me in terror. "Do you realize what you're doing!?"

"I find it fascinating that you didn't react this poorly even when I threatened your people." Walking over to her, she looked at me fearfully as I held Defiance at the ready. "Is your temple truly more important than the people of Crawlana?" I asked before I stopped beside her. "Or is this temple just that important?" Even though I was right beside her, she didn't move.
