For the first time in forever, Rey felt the fear of death.
It was so raw and vivid, as he watched the Divine Beast close in on him with its mighty jaws and overwhelming presence.
Then—
~FWISH!~
In one swift translocation of space, he was able to shift a few meters backwards, completely avoiding the fatal strike from the mindless beast.
"Haa… haa…!" Rey's widened eyes, moist from the fear, gazed upon the Divine Beast as he breathed heavily.
None of his classmates were in sight, which meant their transportation was successful. Lucielle and Brutus were also not present.
'Good! That's good!'
Beads of sweat appeared on Rey's face, and his throat slowly began to itch. He swallowed the saliva that had formed inside as he kept his gaze on the terrifying monster in front of him.
'This thing… it's too dangerous!'
