/BOOOM!/

/SPLATTER!/

/Shine…/

As he punched upward, blasting whatever was in front of him into smithers, his Skill countdown came to a zero amidst the faint rays of sunlight that squirmed their way inside through all of the destruction.

/CLENCH!/

Heart-wrenching pain suddenly rose from his chest, causing Dale to lose his breath as he fell back onto the bottom of the cocoon, clenching his heart as he gasped for air.

/SCREEECH!/

Meanwhile, the distorted Devil, hurt and in pain fled from the cocoon in a terrifying manner, exposing its half-molted body into the world and Dale, even if only for a split second, like a shadow crossing the end of a hallway.

But Dale wasn't focused on it anymore, instead, he laid on the ground, looking at the light coming from the cracks above him with a tired and distant gaze.

"Shi… T…"

'I'm getting dizzy.'
