The Snake could understand that something was off, but it couldn't do anything in that situation. Noah was keeping it stuck in its grasp. The creature had to tear its mouth apart to escape.
Noah wouldn't let it do as it wished. Each second spent in that situation was time that he couldn't use to fight, so he didn't hesitate to raise his sword to attack the restrained beast.
The Demonic Sword pierced the creature's scales and dug its skin before releasing a torrent of dark matter that destroyed its insides. The attack engulfed the beast's skull and came out from its back.
The Snake lost the upper part of its head after a single attack. Slashes capable of a large area of effect were pointless against that opponent. Noah only needed to be precise and deadly.
The frozen lands in the world surged toward the sky when they sensed the Snake's death. A storm made of large chunks of ice engulfed the duo and separated them.
