Seeing the black fog bullets flying towards him and having no time to dodge, Shard simply stopped in his tracks. Extending his left hand forward, the dancing Red Butterfly coalesced into a crimson shield, blocking the first barrage of attacks. Then, with his right hand, he swiftly swung his sword. As Silver Light splashed out, the Night Watchman accurately shattered each black fog orb. With the final swipe of his sword, the pitch-black Sword Light broke through the white mist, dissolved the black fog, and was ultimately grasped single-handedly by Earl Dalark.
After a tense standoff of two brief seconds between the sword glow and the Earl, the sword light dissipated, and the right hand of the Earl completely melted away but soon grew back again. Of course, this was not without cost, as his body became more and more transparent.
"If you become completely transparent, will you lose your sanity completely? If that's the case, I won't waste any more time."
