But just as the two kingfish prepared to unleash their killer move, and the fireball was about to be fully condensed, a bulky shadow suddenly appeared, silently, like a ghost, and instantly arrived behind the Redfish.

What's terrifying is that the other side still had no clue. All of Redfish's attention was focused on forming the fireball and locking onto Jensen as the target; there was no awareness of anything unusual.

Yates held two black short swords, sharp as venomous snakes, and a surge of sharpness emanated instantly.

In that instant, it seemed as though the giant green fish had sensed something and urgently reminded Redfish to "be careful!"

But it was too late!

Two black streaks of light suddenly appeared, instantly piercing through the scales of Redfish without any resistance.
