Peeping into her soul
Blair's eyes widened in disbelief and horror, but he didn't falter. He channeled his shock into determination, refusing to let Cyrus's actions break his resolve. With a surge of icy power, Blair managed to wrest his sword from Cyrus's grip. However, the powerhouse was unyielding, attempting to close his massive hands around Blair's head to crush it. Cyrus tightened his grip on Blair's head in an attempt to squeeze it juices out.
Desperation fueled Blair's actions, and he focused his energy to summon a powerful gust of freezing wind. The sudden burst of cold caught Cyrus off guard, causing him to momentarily loosen his grip. Blair seized the opportunity, slipping out of Cyrus's hold.
Regaining his stance, Blair maintained a cautious distance from the powerhouse. "Cyrus, please! This isn't you!" he pleaded, hoping that his words would finally reach his old friend.
