Seeing how Frer's curved longsword slashed at him, Shane's thoughts were in a mess when a single thought overwhelmed all others after he noticed that Frer's eyes were cold and distant.
This indicated to Shane that she not only had switched off several emotions but that Frer was serious in showing him how serious bloodlust could become if he were to be distracted for too long.
Suddenly, he felt as if death was approaching him, which caused the thought that overwhelmed all others to explode within him.
'I don't want to lose!'
According to his uncles, aunts, and even his father, losing meant that he would most likely die, and Shane didn't want to die once more after having finally found something he liked to do.
He loved to venture through the Primordial Dimensions, and be free of responsibilities!
Shane's mana erupted from within, enveloping him in a single moment, as he injected mana inside his curved longsword to deflect Frer's slash.
