Bab 291: Temple [2]

'Fuck…'

The realization that I had missed the pillar hit me rather quickly.

As my head flicked in all directions, trying my best to think of a solution, I held my breath.

In the end, I extended my hand in the direction of the pillar, a single thread shooting toward the pillar in the hope of penetrating it, but…

"….!"

To my utter horror, the thread bounced off the pillar, and the speed at which I dropped increased.

Having not expected this to happen, my heart fluttered in panic before I twisted my body mid-air and faced the tightrope made out of my threads above me. Extending my head, even more threads burst out from my hand, shooting toward the tightrope.

"Uekh!"

The speed at which the threads shot was faster than the speed at which I was falling, but even then, it was barely enough.

'Not good…!'
