[Destiny Points: 12/150]
Alex knew that time was no longer on his side.
The [Orb of the Mountain] had done its job, trapping the Hatred Demon beneath the earth, but that imprisonment wouldn't last forever.
The battle wasn't over.
He wasn't foolish enough to believe that just because the demon had been buried, it had been defeated.
No, this thing was far beyond something as simple as that.
But there was one undeniable truth—he had struck its heart again.
Only one more hit.
Just one more, and this nightmare would end.
Yet, Alex couldn't afford to forget what had happened last time.
The moment he landed that second strike, the crimson tendrils had emerged from the demon's heart, moving faster than he could react.
Before he even realized what had happened, they had snapped his neck.
He had died instantly.
And now, with the Hatred Demon nearing its final transformation, Alex knew that if it came back, this battle would no longer be in his favor.
