The Reaper spread its three remaining wings wide, preparing another deadly spike barrage.
—SWOOSH!
"Not this time!"
But Eren didn't let the Boss finish its attack. With a surge of force, he launched his body in the air forward at high speed using Invisible Hand's string like a slingshot. In a blur, he closed the distance between them—axe in hand, eyes burning with focus. With a mighty swing, Eren came crashing down from above.
–SLASH!
His axe sliced cleanly through the Reaper's right side, severing two of its three wings in a single brutal strike. Feathers and black blood scattered through the air as only one wing remained.
"GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!"
The Abyssal Reaper howled in agony, its distorted voice echoing like thunder across the battlefield. In fury, it slammed its sword into the ground.
–CRACK!
–BOOM!
A massive shockwave erupted as thousands of bone spikes burst from the ground—larger and sharper than any before.
But Eren wasn't caught.
