[Ultimate Quickdraw Art: Death Phantom Razor]!
Havel gathered the last remnants of energy within his body and unleashed the ultimate art of his Quickdraw Sword Style.
Swoosh!
Time seemed to slow as his blade flashed through the air with incredible speed, slicing toward the koi swimming in the pond.
Miss!
Miss!
Miss!
All three simultaneous slashes failed to strike the target.
Havel dropped weakly to his knees.
His desperate attack had failed, consuming the last of the energy he had left.
His head hung low as he stared blankly at the sword in his hand.
Pain and weakness screamed through every fibre of his body.
Yet none of that occupied his thoughts.
All Havel could think about was his sword… and the strange sensation he had felt when he struck just now.
'I felt it…'
'I felt something repel my blade.'
'I was right!'
Although the strike had failed, Havel refused to dwell on the despair that threatened to overwhelm him.
