Feeling himself falling, Zick's consciousness, which was in a very pitiful state, activated his one and only soul skill — Usurp and reform.
With the amount of energy ravaging his body, it would take a while to regenerate his lost limbs.
'I have no choice but to take some risk....and with that attack, it felt like he was not trying to kill me.'
Zick moved towards the area where he felt the presence of lifeform.
The fortress appeared above him blocking the finishing attack launched by the demon lord. The rail gun began shooting rapidly at Reikel with no regard for the damage sustained.
The whole fortress shook as it came in contact with Reikel's attack, but it still held on for now.
Slowly, Zick's huge charred body reverted to human form. But the injuries still persisted, his whole body appeared bleeding and burnt in many places, and he was missing both of his arms too.
