Kairos naturally saw the sudden attack coming and had a full four seconds to prepare. Though he was being worn down both mentally and physically. Maintaining this state meant he wouldn't be able to focus reliably, thus he brought it down to two seconds instead.
In a flash, he saw the screen of blood disappear and the palm approach. He went with what he would've most naturally, redirecting his spear towards the attack in an attempt to skewer the hand directly.
However, he saw that the man easily changed the trajectory, sliding past the side of his spear and slamming into his fingers, splattering them. Kairos quickly shifted his strategy, deciding to swipe with his spear.
As his future vision distorted, he witnessed the man slapping down the spear before his eyes while the other palm came straight for him. Kairos couldn't help but feel cold sweat forming on his back, even though that wasn't actually happening.
