Just as Nux was about to make the connection with the Relic,
Fwooosh
The time around him slowed down. Even the Transcendent's attacks that were coming toward him slowed down, moving at a speed so slow that it almost looked like they had frozen in one place.
Nux raised his eyebrow in surprise. The surprising thing was that this seemed to have no effect on him. Well, not after his Relic was taken away.
Yes, the Relic was taken away from his very hands, and he had no idea how it happened or who did it.
Well, he had a rough idea of who did it.
The entity was the reason he was doing all this in the first place.
And finally, he heard a voice, a voice so… soothing and beautiful that he was momentarily lost.
"Don't be foolish, Nux Leander."
Nux looked in the direction of the voice, and finally, his eyes landed on the being standing in front of him.
