spear wrapped in a golden circle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Fuck.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spear's tip blazed like sun, almost blinding me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I closed my eyes shut, relying on the sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hissing sound echoed, I spun and sliced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A scream erupted in my ears as I hit the mark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I thrust my katana at the source of the voice, the scream abruptly halted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Eleven.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five infernos of flames emerged from the soldiers' hands as they rushed to engulf
