KARAKA'S DAGGER

'It's getting faster….'

Frustration riddled Lily's face as her clash with the black monster continued.

Not only were its explosive blows getting more powerful with each strike, but its attack speed was also increasing by the second.

Its precision grew more precise with each successive hit, sometimes even grazing parts of Lily's body despite her being in mist form.

Though her technique provided substantial defense, allowing her to sometimes blend into the mist and avoid the full brunt of its attacks, she knew this strategy wouldn't hold out for long.

The monster was adapting, becoming more relentless and formidable with every passing moment.

She needed a way to end this fight quickly; a battle of attrition wasn't in her favor.

As the monster grew stronger, so did its scaly armor, becoming more impervious to her attacks. It wouldn't be long before she ran out of mana to maintain her mist form.
