Chapter 11: Kill Them
He looked up at the cloudy sky, and at the red sand on his feet that stretched for dozens of kilometers.
It was then that a deep rumble shook the ground beneath him, jolting him brutally from his thoughts.
’Hmm?’
A slender creature burst from the sand, jaws wide open, revealing rows of sharp teeth.
*Shrill screams!!!*
Zrahel furrowed his brow. ’Way too loud...’
With a simple gesture, he clenched his fist. The worm twisted before collapsing in on itself, compressed into a bloody mass of flesh by an invisible force.
The sand exploded. Three sand worm silhouettes burst forth, their jagged maws aiming at Zrahel simultaneously.
He snapped his fingers.
The first worm slammed into the ground, flattened like it had been pressed by a hydraulic machine. With a backhand swipe, Zrahel sliced the second one cleanly in two. The third leaped just as he abruptly clenched his fist—the creature imploded into a bloody mass.
He sensed more emerging from the ground, so he quickly pivoted and slammed a fist downward.
