Boom—!
Kai's dark energy that had been seething from his wounds began to fade and disappear.
It was a bad sign.
His Reckless Ruin Ending Fragment had deemed that his body was already at its limit, and it wouldn't be long before he collapsed entirely without any strength to move. Nothing he could do right now other than surrender to exhaustion.
Even though his body was losing strength rapidly, his mind was wide awake.
Survival was on the line.
Kai could see death approaching as the corrupted Chester turned to face him and unleashed a suffocating killing intent. And his gaze—it was already inhuman. Something had taken over him, and there was nothing he could do.
More blood leaked down Kai's lips as the killing intent pressed against his chest.
I'm going to die. I'm going to die!
Kai gritted his teeth.
His eyes shifted to the shield that had been pushed back to his right, and he tried reaching for it.
But his body simply had no strength remaining.
