Limit

Ackster took the opportunity to breathe and let his body, mind, and sources recover in the few moments he had left before he the sphere caught up to him and started pushing against the tip of his sword. It didn't do much to change Ackster's strength or improve his chances of success. But it was well-needed.

Ackster had run on full gas—more than maximum output—for too long now. He had used his full strength against The Hero and the Voice. Then, without a chance to rest, he had to fight against a being so strong he couldn't even see a path to victory.

But Ackster was too stubborn to give up so he met the sphere of cosmic power with a slash while imagining the sphere, the Observer, and the cosmic power as water. Thanks to his recent advances in his martial arts, Ackster's attack made the entire sphere tremble. But that's all it did.
