Boom!
The power of law struck. But still, the Celestial Devourer never appeared. The impact triggered an earth-shattering explosion, reducing the mountain to rubble. Jared's figure vanished entirely. A massive crater, nearly a hundred meters deep, had formed where he had stood.
“Jared!” Catalina cried out in panic, about to rush forward.
But Rosa and Isla grabbed her arms, holding her back. “Don't!” Rosa warned. “At your level, you won't even make it halfway before you're turned to ash!”
Kishor and Ararat stood frozen in shock.
“Uh...” Ararat glanced at Kishor.
“What just happened?” Kishor muttered in disbelief.
“You said he wasn't bragging, so how did this happen?” Ararat asked.
“I-I don't know! Something's not right!” Kishor scratched his head.
“Should we go take a look?” Ararat asked.
“The power of law hasn't faded yet. You think you'd survive?”
“No way!”
“I wouldn't either...”
“Then we wait.”
Just as they were debating, a deep roar, like a dragon's call, echoed from the pit. A burst of golden light shot into the sky. Then, slowly rising from the depths of the crater, was an enormous golden bell, glowing with an ethereal light.
Wrapped around it, an enormous dragon coiled, its presence overwhelming. And beneath that golden bell, Jared stood completely unharmed.
“What kind of magical item is that?” Kishor gasped.
“A relic capable of withstanding the power of law. That thing is no ordinary divine item,” Ararat muttered, eyes wide in disbelief.
Buzz!
The Dragon Bell let out a deep hum, and in an instant, the power of law dissipated. Jared landed gently, the bell vanishing at the same time.

Truly an epic, could very well be a movie series just like the Lord of the Rings....
