The appearance of the hands was so fast to the point that Corey could not react to it despite his attention being entirely on the strange entity. It was almost like the hands had always been there and what he had done was to run into the hands.
As the hands were centimeters from touching him, Corey's eyes widened as he saw all of this happening in slow motion but his body could still not react. However, his Cosmic Soul and his Stars of Consciousness were much faster in reacting.
THRUM!!!
Corey's Phantom Plague Axe Intent thrummed around his entire body, and the moment the pale white hands were a centimeter from touching Corey, the hands were cut into pieces.
Two seconds later, Corey came to a stop and he instantly jumped to the side, and ran away without hesitation.
