"Piss off!" Ryu cursed, slapping out a palm.
It was almost immediately absorbed by the anglerfish as though he wasn't even there. Getting a gauge on the beast's actual strength was difficult as it didn't seem to conform with any sort of norms.
The antenna enlarged before his eyes, its teeth baring as it bit down toward his body.
This sort of attack, even if you managed to survive it, could only lead to bad things. Who knew what kind of terrible toxins and troublesome infections you'd have to deal with because of a small nick, let alone an all out bite.
Ryu clenched his teeth.
The attack was fast, too fast. He was letting his frustration influence his judgment when that was the last thing he should be doing. He was better than that, far better.
Space warped around him and his expression changed again.
His Spacetime Soul Nature was suppressed to this extent in this world? Why?
BANG!
