Sil's last stand
The strange colourless power had been placed inside of Sil, and he had been caught by one of the serpents that was latched onto his body. Pain was stinging inside him, and his MC cells were running low. If he continued to use Russ' ability the same way he had been doing, then he would have already run out of MC cells. Still, for Sil, a small amount of MC cells would be larger than most.
'I can't beat him,' Sil thought, his face twisting and turning from the pain. 'When I first came to meet Immortui, I had come only with the intention of delaying him as long as possible, but as the fight went on, I saw a chance. I thought I saw a way I could win. If I took down Immortui in Quinn's place, then we wouldn't have to keep relying on him to do it all for us!
'But I see, I know now that I can't complete the task, so I have to do what I originally set out to do. I have to buy as much time as possible.'
