I saw my opportunity. With a shout, I drove my sword deep into the creature's chest, aiming for the human face that twisted in agony beneath the pulsating flesh.
The blade sank in, meeting resistance as it cut through the thick layers of muscle and bone, but I pushed harder, feeling the point of the sword bite into the core of the abomination.
The creature let out a deafening roar, its entire body convulsing as if it were being torn apart from within. The twisted human face contorted in pain, the mouth opening wide in a silent scream as the eyes rolled back into its head.
The tentacles flailed wildly, smashing into the walls of the pit and sending chunks of rock raining down around us. The force of its thrashing was so intense that I struggled to keep my grip on the sword, but I refused to let go, pouring every ounce of strength I had left into the attack.
