My brain couldn't process the sheer impossibility of what I was looking at.
The headless goblin had just grown a brand new skull in less than three seconds.
While my physical flesh was completely falling apart from the inside out, Pookie over there had basically hit the reset button.
The fully regenerated behemoth locked its glowing yellow eyes onto me and unleashed a tidal wave of roaring fire straight across the chamber.
Sheer, unadulterated survival instinct overrode my failing nervous system. I didn't calculate the math or balance the feeds. I instinctively dropped every drop of my available mana straight into my Time Affinity.
Through sheer instinct alone, I activated Temporal Step.
-Kzzzt!
Popping into existence on the beast's left flank, I didn't care how much mana had bled out of the Shotgun since I had stopped my mana feed into it, nor did I bother to properly aim. I just raised it and pulled the trigger.
-THARD!
