282 Notoriety

The giant orb of Abyss energy pulsated erratically. Suspended above Ophelia's body, its potent energy kept struggling to break free of its restraints to wreak havoc once more. Yet, somehow it held firm under mine and Sensei's control.

I had no idea what was happening. 

I also didn't know why such devastating power was suddenly bending to my will and command, and at that point I wasn't interested in the reason either because I couldn't stop looking up at the bright red orb that floated dangerously above us.

Eventually, tiny strings of malevolent energy started drifting down towards Ophelia, like suspended liquid in the air.

I was intrigued by the patterns the numerous red strings created as they slowly wove together into a single point like a deadly needle. It then plunged into Ophelia's body and pierced through her desaturating liquid core, causing her static body to jolt awake with its power.
