Selion knew what he had to do, but he didn't know how to minimize his power to that degree. There was only one way: to try.
"One… two… three…"
With deep breaths, he tried again and again until he finally managed to reach the balance he wanted. But now came the harder part: focus… Reading the monster's moves.
He sent out a current. When the electricity reached the creature's body, it didn't even notice. But Selion felt it spreading into its nervous system, and that was when he moved. He locked onto the flow darting through its nerves.
Yet there was a problem. He could sense where the attacks were coming from, but his mind and body weren't working in perfect harmony. He was dodging the strikes with only the smallest margin of timing. Slowly, he was adapting, but the slightest delay could mean death.
Even though he managed to avoid the monster's strikes, small cuts and scrapes were piling up across his body. Selion had to master this technique quickly. He needed to focus not only on the nervous system but also on his own body adapting to its changes.
He drew in a deep breath…
"There! From above!"
It was as if he had foreseen the monster lifting its arm. He leapt to the side, dodging the blow with ease. This time, he couldn't afford to lose the connection he had found.
He lunged forward.
While distracting the monster with Lightning, he struck with Tariki, landing sharp, precise blows.
On the surface, Selion seemed to have the upper hand. But in truth, everything worked against him. No matter how many wounds the creature took, it regenerated. Selion, on the other hand, grew weaker with every move—both physically and mentally. To focus on the nervous system and move his body at the same time was far beyond his current limits.
For a brief moment, he hesitated. His decision was clear:He would unleash everything. Either he would win—or he would collapse, powerless before the beast.
From his throne, the Shadow Lord watched, already knowing what Selion was about to do. He turned to Velmora.— Go to the battlefield. Take him to the Doctor.Velmora frowned.— Why? The fight isn't over yet.The Shadow Lord smirked.— The outcome is already decided…
!!! Information :Velmora is the woman alongside the Shadow Lord who appeared earlier. !!!
At that moment, Selion gripped Tariki with both hands. He channeled seventy percent of his mana into his legs, the rest into his arms. The preparations were complete. He took a deep, fear-laced breath, then shot forward.
He moved so fast that a yellow aura enveloped him. The sound of thunder cracked through the air; light exploded, bathing everything in gold.
When the glow faded, all that remained was a massive crater, a hole pierced through the clouds above, and Selion's unconscious body lying on the ground.
Velmora approached him. Her eyes scanned his form as a faint smile curved her lips.— Fool.
