HUMMM!
The clear cry of a sword hummed, sharp enough to shatter stone and pierce the clouds.
The sound didn't come from any Knight on the battlefield. It descended from high above the pass, carrying a strange, piercing quality that instantly overwhelmed the roars of the monsters, the screams of the wounded, and the clash of steel.
Everyone in the pass, including the savage creatures from the Otherworld, involuntarily froze for a moment.
The next instant.
A figure in deep blue, like a meteor tearing through the dim daylight, leaped from the top of a steep cliff face!
His descent was impossibly fast, carrying the crushing weight of a toppling mountain.
While the figure was still in mid-air, a stream of brilliant white Energy, so condensed it seemed solid, erupted from his hand. It carried the immense majesty unique to the Peak of a Great Knight, smashing into the Scorching Beast that was about to tear apart the Princess's carriage like a bolt of white Thunder!
SIZZLE!
