The Serpent King lunged forward with incredible speed, his massive form surging through the air towards Evan. In a swift motion, he coiled his serpentine tail around Evan's body, constricting him tightly. Evan struggled against the powerful grip, his muscles straining as he attempted to break free.
With his cobra head hovering mere inches away from Evan's face, the Serpent King hissed with a mixture of curiosity and suspicion. "There's something peculiar about your grace, human. It feels... different, tainted somehow."
Evan gritted his teeth, his determination evident despite his predicament. "You know nothing! My grace is my own, and I will not be stopped by the likes of you!"
The Serpent King chuckled, his voice echoing with a hint of amusement. "We shall see, human. We shall see."
