"Okay," Sebastian hissed, his voice trembling with sheer, unhinged adrenaline. "Note to self. Turn the safety settings back on."
The Leviathan was right on top of him. Its massive, spinning hydraulic teeth blotted out the distant stars, the sickening stench of rotting data washing over him. The beast's jaws snapped shut, fully intending to swallow Sebastian and the space he occupied in one massive bite.
Sebastian didn't dodge. He just grabbed the hovering, hyper-dense iron spear with his left hand.
He didn't need to throw it with good form. The weapon weighed more than a continent.
He planted his boots in the empty void, anchored himself with a localized gravity edit, and thrust the spear directly upward into the roof of the Leviathan's descending mouth.
SHLUCK!
The sound was nauseatingly wet and incredibly loud.
