With a faint look of surprise, Araya turned around in an instant. Without hesitation, he spread his outstretched palm and clenched it tightly once more. Onn, a sound like a tremor could be heard. Touko saw it, the space in front of Araya was collapsing further and further inward. The black cat leaped upward before it could be compressed. As if gravity had reversed, the cat landed on the ceiling and then glared at the Magus below. “That’s enough.” From beneath the black coat another arm extended, the fist tightly clenching. The black cat and the spot on the ceiling on which it rested were crushed. Bang, one corner of the ceiling caved in and the black cat was crushed, compressed beyond recognition, and disappeared. “Your puppet is gone now. ‘A Magus doesn’t need to be a strong fighter, they just need to create the strongest thing with their skills’ ... Those were your words during our days at the academy. Indeed, that is the case. A Puppeteer has lost the instant their puppet loses.” Kara no Kyoukai: The Garden of Sinners, Volume 5, Spiral Paradox 9 /12
