Defeat?

'It seems Zero is in the mood to mess with me,' Alex thought, standing mid-air looking at the crystal of unrest cloaked inside a swirling vortex of dance death energy and torn apart remnants of various creatures.

Alex had ended the battle against Killian seconds ago, and in total, it took him a hundred and six seconds, and now he was waiting for the corpse eater to take form, which should have been done in another twenty seconds or so, but that didn't seem to be the case.

The thirty-second timer had passed, and the swirling vortex was not showing signs of shrinking, but instead, it was growing by the moment, making Alex realize he might be in for the worst possible scenario.

There were four types of Corpse Eaters, with their difficulty ranging from low to extreme, with low taking around twenty seconds to form and extreme taking sixty seconds.
