Zzzzt!
The void before Chimera trembled violently, streaks of deathly black rays corroding space and letting out sharp, mournful screeches.
This was Chimera's most devastating attack—renowned among beings of its tier as the uncrowned king. Its power was nightmarish.
As those black beams shot toward Owen, the flow of time and space itself seemed to warp.
Everyone present moved as though in slow motion, watching helplessly as the deadly beams surged toward their target.
Chimera's face twisted into fanatical ecstasy.
"Die! All of you, die!"
It had long harbored killing intent toward this man who showed no reverence to The Celestial. And now, it imagined Owen torn to shreds by its attack.
But just as Chimera's crazed shout rang out—
A chilling glint flashed in Owen's eyes.
In a heartbeat, he released little Leslie's hand, balled his own into a fist, and punched directly at the incoming black rays!
