Chapter 83
The monster's body hurled sideways like a torn sack after Yoren's devastating hit.
With a dull splash, the sea monster crashed into the ocean dozens of meters away—then nothing. Silence.
On the speedboat, ACE's eyes widened in disbelief. Yoren had warned him that something had changed in his body, but this—this level of power went far beyond what ACE had imagined.
Still, shock didn't stop him from doing what needed to be done. The moment Yoren launched himself into the air, ACE had already restarted the engine.
He maneuvered the boat into position, stood, and braced himself—just in time to catch Yoren mid-fall.
"Yoren! Are you okay? Your legs?"
Kneeling on the speedboat, blood streamed from Yoren's wound despite missing the artery, pooling rapidly around him.
"I'm fine."
Yoren turned over and sat up, panting.
He was hurt—but alive. And strangely, there was relief in that.
No one knew the full weight of that punch better than Yoren himself. The fish-headed monster's skull had twisted under the blow. He was sure—its brain was scrambled. Even if it miraculously clung to life, it wouldn't be chasing him again.
