บท 54: The Fight's Conclusion

"That was a close one. I won't be letting my guard down like that again."

Astra muttered slowly as she stared at Balak, touching the bloody wound he inflicted on her.

Slowly, light particles danced around it, and the wound healed within moments. Balak's jaw dropped at the sight of this.

"For real? Isn't this just cheating?" he wailed in his little insect form.

She snickered at him and laughed heartily.

"Now then, let's resume. This time we'll have a decisive battle. So prepare yourself!" she said.

Astra knew her time was running out. Thanks to the use of the light explosion and then the healing of her body, she had expended more power than she had originally planned.

She couldn't have foreseen the possibility that he could have somehow escaped the blast. With less than three minutes left in her powered-up form, she was desperate.

"I need to bring this to a close, quickly!" she resolved.

"I agree," Balak said.
