Chapter 62: Magic Heart
Just as she reached the tentacle, she jumped on it in a strange circular motion. Her body propelled forward as if she wanted to fall back down the other side, but then her dark sword fell onto the tentacle.
It wasn’t made of adamantium, so it didn’t cut through it. It was clear that her strength wasn’t enough to cut this octopus. But it was a good tool to propel her body upward once more, taking advantage of the tentacle’s elasticity to spin around its axis, allowing the adamantium sword to strike with precision.
Once. One cut. One deep wound.
The same movement was repeated a second time, as if it were a ball playing with the laws of gravity. Each turn was a cut, and each cut tore a part of the tentacle apart.
But thanks to the fact that it couldn’t stay in one place due to its rotating movements and the elasticity of its tentacle, it looked more like a nut being screwed in quickly.
Its frantic movement began at the tentacle’s tip; five seconds later, it had traveled the entire length, completely shredding it.
A loud crash then occurred, shaking the surroundings with a tremor that rattled the entire room.
Somehow, the octopus seemed to produce a terrifying sound, sounding extremely annoyed. But it hadn’t acted quickly enough; it had already lost a tentacle.
It tried to save its other tentacle, lifting it to dodge Elliot’s attacks, but Elliot wouldn’t let it. Seeing the tentacle move away from him, he jumped toward it, grabbing hold with one hand. His other hand drove the sword firmly into the tentacle and pulled it, quickly bringing it to the other side of the tentacle, circling it in a single movement while in the air.
He didn’t allow himself to fall under the weight of his body. Instead, keeping the sword firmly planted, he began to move in circles over the tentacle with his other hand.
His movement was also similar to Jenna’s, with the difference that he didn’t make vertical spinning attacks, but instead spun around the tentacle, which opened large wounds on it and eventually managed to cut it.
