Chapter 41 - A Sudden Fever

I looked ahead again, to the monster approaching me. For some reason, its multiple eyes were focused on me. I'm not sure why, but it's not a great feeling. 

I channeled all my remaining mana into my eyes and used it to aim at the target. I can't create magic spells like Allen that lock up his target, or do what Noir does when he uses Puppeteer. Setting up a range is difficult since I can't measure how far or near the monster is because of its massive size. 

Is it only massive because it's already near? I can't be sure of that, and I don't want to waste my remaining energy on what's uncertain. 

So, the only thing I can do is to do it like this—using my eyes to lock up the target—as simple as that. 

I could feel the corner of my eyes watered. I couldn't blink, since I had a feeling that if I did, the monster would be freed. A bout of relief washed through me when I noticed its movement slowed down and the lights on its body slowly died one at a time.
