Holding the elongated blade across his chest, its tip gleaming with a blue edge, Caelum shouted, "Blue Crimson Slash!"
The blade sliced through the air, creating a dozen deep slash marks in the wall. The creature attempted to fade away, but the attack completely obliterated the wall, revealing pipes and a jagged interior behind.
The creature lay in pieces, its shadowy form slowly stitching itself back together.
"I don't think so," Caelum said, his gaze fixed on the creature's exposed core. "What creature even has a core like this?" The question raced through his mind as he searched for an answer but found none in the fleeting moment. With a determined effort, he thrust his blade toward the core.
The blade pierced the core, slicing it in two. Caelum winced in pain as another tendril slammed into his side, forcing him to jump back.
