Chapter 167
The blue marlin’s long and massive body exuded an overwhelming aura of dominance. It was true that tension was rising, but this was precisely the moment when provocation was needed more than ever.
“You’re not going to dodge, are you?” I taunted, pointing with my pinky finger. The giant marlin twisted its elongated body in midair as if swimming through the void.
“I’ll pierce straight through your chest!” Its body swelled and then shot toward me at an angle like a bullet.
‘How foolish. Revealing its own attack point out loud,’ I thought, recalling Donatan’s words. If my target is clearly pointed out, it makes my job that much easier.
I grinned and responded, ‘Indeed. So arrogant.’
In an instant, a shadow loomed over me, and the glowing point grew in size. The creature barreled through my barrier with impressive speed, its pointed horn aimed right at me.
Tap!
Originally, I only intended to break its horn. But something unexpected happened. As soon as its horn touched the pad of my pinky, it shattered, and its entire body started piercing through me under the weight of its momentum.
Crack, crack, crack!
