Everything slowed to a crawl.
Just inches from his eyeball, the ice-coated tail paused, as if caught in a state of suspension in animation.
Daisuke didn't have much time.
Four seconds.
That was all he had.
Though barely recognizable, the tail was still moving, inching dangerously close to completing its purpose. He needed a surefire way to stop it.
His mind raced, processing countless possibilities in the span of mere microseconds. Sifting through a torrent of simulations, he finally settled upon a single timeline—one that offered a possible escape from this nightmarish predicament.
Four seconds passed.
The tail inched closer.
Power surged through his veins as he unleashed a desperate counterattack—banking on a skill he acquired from another stolen spellbook.
DING!

A vortex of silver energy spiraled in his palm, its violent rotation howling like a jet engine.
In a split-second decision, he disregarded the skill's 25-mana requirement and funneled every ounce of his power into the swirling mass, causing it to expand and condense with overwhelming intensity.
Then—
BOOOOOOOM!
The Helix Bullet met the creature's tail in a powerful collision. Its centrifugal force didn't just slow the oncoming strike—it nudged its trajectory ever so slightly off course.
But this wasn't a full counter. It was a tactical retreat.
The force sent Daisuke hurtling backward like a shooting star. He crashed into the cavern ceiling, shattering rock and crystal. Then, gravity took him.
His body plummeted.
Stone. Shards. Blood.
A jagged outcrop jutting from the wall broke his fall.
Agony.
His HP blinked dangerously low to zero, warning bells tolling in his mind. Blood pooled beneath him. His cracked shield lay to the side—the only reason he was still breathing.
