For every use of [Shadow Skip], I could feel the waves touching my skin becoming hotter. Our escape speed was less than the expanding shockwave's speed! Sooner or later, it will catch up to us, but before that, I need to increase the distance!
Without minding my remaining energy reserves, I continued spamming the skill. I didn't know if it was dozens or hundreds of times, but after an instant that felt like forever, we finally got caught up by the blast.
"Gah!"
Pain coursed all over my body as I absorbed the impact of the shockwaves. I placed my back against the blast while covering Fang with my arms and body. It was an almost futile attempt, but it's better than doing nothing. After all, Fang was not yet done with her recovery.
