Jason was shocked.
Never in his life would he have imagined that the opponent he had to face had such a devastating strength.
He had failed to realise the first telltale signs of his trusted weapon, Byakur receiving its very first cracks. This was an unbelievable sight, which caused Jason to widen his eyes in shock.
Instinctively, he retracted his weapon, allowing it to return to the soul world.
This gave the one-eyed giant, the Cyclops, to continue the sword slash with an unfathomable force.
Knowing the trajectory, Jason evaded it by a hair's breadth, but before he realised it, the Cyclops landed a solid kick into the abdomen.
Flung away, Jason crashed into the ground, more than a dozen meters away from his previous position, only to continue to roll.
Gasping for air, Jason felt as if his entire body was shaking, yet, before he could even think, his body reacted instinctively.
