Chapter 105: Final Clash (2)
As Alex reappeared in front of the axe-wielding giant, his form streaked in a blur of lightning, he looked absurdly small, like a defiant spark challenging a mountain. The giant’s eyes pulsed with primal power, locking onto Alex’s approach with uncanny awareness. There was no delay.
With a roar that cracked the air, the titan moved.
The giant’s massive arms swung its stone axe horizontally, the weapon carving through the air with the speed of a cannonball. The pressure it generated created a concussive shockwave that blasted dust and rubble across the battlefield. Despite its sheer size, the motion wasn’t clumsy. It was precise. Intentional. Deadly.
Alex’s pupils contracted.
Fast.
Mid-air, he bent his knees and summoned a circular disk of lightning beneath his feet—a Thunder Platform, sizzling and sparking violently against gravity’s pull. He kicked off it an instant before the axe could connect, flipping forward and landing on the flat of the massive blade as it cut across the ruined terrain.
Sparks flew beneath his boots as he skidded along the axe’s edge, his katana drawn and glowing with crackling arcs. He dashed forward, attempting to use the weapon’s momentum to vault up the giant’s arm and reach its core. But the moment his foot stepped toward the golem’s stone body—
Something felt wrong.
Danger.
His entire instinct screamed.
He obeyed without hesitation.
