Apollo's bokken tore apart the secondary reformed being in two. The halves shot to the side, letting Apollo and Layla pass through.
Apollo turned around to look at the result of his attack, but the results weren't ideal.
Although the secondary reformed being was torn in two, tendrils of flesh immediately shot out from the wounds. These tendrils combined with each other and forcefully pulled the secondary reformed being together.
Just like that, it was good as new.
The entire process only took a couple of seconds.
Apollo continued laughing, as though mocking the secondary reformed being's efforts. However, he was going to have to take this battle seriously, else it would never end.
Apollo dashed forward, as did the being.
Apollo raised his bokken, while the being raised both its claws.
Red scars snaked across Apollo's arms, and the being roared.
