[BATTLEFIELD — GRIM]
The Wyvern Alpha took flight.
Its left wing damaged, yes. Erratic flight, yes. But it was still flying.
And from above, it unleashed its ice breath towards Grim.
[ICE BREATH — AREA]
Grim couldn't dodge completely.
The ice struck his torso.
New cracks. Ribs fracturing.
[Grim HP: 340 → 240/3,360]
But [Reaper's Wrath] was still active.
"Still... standing."
The Sand Scorpion Hunter seized the moment. It lunged with its right pincer towards Grim's torso.
CRASH.
[Grim HP: 240 → 180/3,360]
Grim flew back twenty meters.
He slammed into the canyon's rock wall.
Silence.
[Reaper's Wrath — DEACTIVATED] (Insufficient HP to maintain)
His form contracted.
Four meters → two and a half meters.
The intense crimson of Reaper's Wrath fading.
But the crimson light of Core Resonance—
That remained.
The Wyvern Alpha descended towards him.
Confident in victory.
Grim raised his head.
