A massive purple trail of light is left behind the spirit arrow as it rockets toward the Lich's bright yellow attack. Arie's breathing and heartbeat synchronize, as time feels as though it's slowing down. Though this is not a phenomenon of the Noble Vibrations suppressing his mind, it is quite the opposite. As his body is in the tailwind of the enormous attack he just threw, all of the suppressing cold aura is being pushed aside and torn through by the arrow he just sent out with the full-powered might of his 3rd Ranked Up Buff, Demonic Soul energy, and True Core ability—to make the yellow core of an arrow almost identical to the Lich's, which has sent one flying back his way. In this brief moment, where no suppression is limiting his mental capacity, even more variables become noticeable to him, and the human archer's eyes glow bright as he prepares for what is about to happen. A horrific twang of energies vibrates through the entire space between the two archers. At first glance, it appears both arrows have collided at their tips and stopped in the air entirely, as if someone pressed pause on their battle. Though, upon closer inspection, something quite strange is happening. Invisible ripples of energy tear away the outer layers of the purple arrow, deactivating and stripping away the demonic energy collected and compressed from the atmosphere, along with the pure mana imbued into this attack as well. "That'll do," he states while flying past the massive crater he just created in their last exchange. As the debris falls and the yellow light dissolves into the atmosphere, even the Lich's bones begin to heal, and it regains mobility in its arm. The glowing purple eyes of this demonic creation lock onto Arie again as he attempts to fly away—this time, it looks quite pissed. When its gaze watches Arie streak across the sky in the direction of the throne, an additional fury of instinctual rage takes charge of its mind. Arie feels that ripple of cold darkness even 5,000 kilometers away. The Lich's eyes grow darker, and the shadow of false Noble Vibrations takes even more control, as if it is merely a puppet and there is no free will left behind the dead eyes of this Lich. Its broken arm raises, shattering more of its shoulder's unhealed bones, and draws another arrow into its massive black bow. Arie turns to face it, gritting his teeth and prepping to send a defensive arrow back. However, the instant the Lich releases its attack, it disappears. As both Arie and Raven manage to injure the Kings of this world—beings that have been unmatched by any lower lifeforms for tens of thousands of years—Abby touches down in a calm desert region on the far side of the planet. The ground vibrates lightly as massive explosions tear up the planet's surface far away, and bright flashes of yellow light can be seen on the horizon. However, Abby's full concentration is captured by the magnificent vibrating black Wyvern Skeleton before her.
