Kapitel 272: Pirate Meet (15)

Taienra sent an array of weak starlight straight at Nester's eyes. It wasn't powerful enough to cause damage, but it was enough to make Nester flinch and close his eyes. That was when Asilean blinked forward and stretched out his paw, tearing through space in the same place as Nester's throat.

Nester still had his senses as an eighth-level mage, but Taienra's attack delayed his reaction. He only managed to react after Asilean had already begun separating his head and body.

Nester drew back to escape from Asilean's claws while throwing all the chains he had everywhere around him in panic. Nester managed to avoid having his entire head separated, but it was left hanging by little more than the spinal cord.

Nester felt his life rapidly draining away, and he panicked. All rational thought left him. All he wanted was to do as much as possible before he could never do anything again, even if it meant giving up on keeping Toz restrained.
