With Nesferati defeated, Kaizen felt a wave of relief.
The immense being from the depths retreated, its tentacles waving gently as it disappeared into the watery darkness.
The battle had been arduous, but Kaizen knew that this was only part of his journey. He still had to reach the bottom of the lake.
The pressure around him eased significantly, and Kaizen was finally able to swim towards the bottom unhindered.
The water, once turbulent and chaotic, was now calm, still. He used his psychokinesis to propel himself faster, cutting through the water like an arrow.
As he neared the bottom, a breathtaking sight revealed itself. Columns of ice rose from the lake bed, stretching out in all directions like a crystalline forest. The refracted light created a hypnotic spectacle of sparkles and reflections, illuminating the surroundings with an ethereal bluish light.
Kaizen swam between the columns, marveling at the beauty that surrounded him.
