Aditya's body started to shake as if he was standing in the midst of an earthquake. This sudden change seemed to catch Vespera by surprise, her eyes widening as she looked at him. His movements were jerky, rough, like an old piece of machinery trying to operate after years of rust and neglect.
With every ounce of his remaining strength, he grappled with the Adamantite Doomblade, his fingers curling around the familiar hilt. His arms moved in a stiff, robotic manner, as if they were fighting against invisible restraints.
Then, with a resounding 'Bang!', Aditya plunged the blade into his own right thigh. A searing pain ripped through his body as if he'd been hit by a bolt of lightning. But with that wave of pain came a welcome relief: he could move again. The paralyzing force that had imprisoned him was now gone. The sensation of control returning to his body was like tasting fresh air after being trapped underwater.
