Battle at the Selnes Country: Earth Drill Centipede III
Souta swiftly dashed across the centipede's body, slashing through its tough flesh with his weapon. Roaring with heightened energy, he accelerated, leaving behind a streak of blood-colored lightning in his wake.
Swoosh!
The centipede emitted a painful screech, attempting to shake off Souta while Kessa pinned it down. Despite its efforts, the monster couldn't break free as its strength waned. Nonetheless, it gathered its remaining energy, unleashing powerful beams in a desperate attempt to retaliate.
Focused on restraining the centipede, Kessa disregarded the beams, maintaining her hold on the creature.
Unlike Kessa, Souta dodged the incoming energy beams, avoiding direct hits. His strategy was to keep moving and not engage in direct confrontation, mindful of the peril these fifth-stage monster attacks posed.
Swoosh!
