[The centipede lets out a horrifying screech and attempts to make a lunge at the airborne Chalcedony, which prompts Kor to make a split decision.]
Chal!
[Kor leaps into the air, and gathered dreamotion energy into his hand, forming a lightning javelin, which he immediately throws at the centipede. The weapon pieces the centipede's tail, pinning it to the ground and stopping the insect's ascent from reaching Chalcedony. Its range of movement has now become a lot more limited.]
[Chalcedony doesn't hesitate to use a follow up attack. He's still cautious and doesn't want to get too close to it if necessary. His Phobia of bugs is very strong. That's why Chalcedony strikes it with a blast of holy light. The Crystal Knights have a strong affinity towards light and the Valentine god. ]
[The centipede lets out a horrifying screech and falls to the ground from Chalcedony's attack, lying motionless for a moment.]
I think--
[And then suddenly, the body lets out a final spasm, jerking violently around. This causes Kor to leap back in shock. But finally, the beast falls still, eventually dissolving into nothingness.]
[ Chalcedony runs over to heal any other injuries they might have sustained during their last fight. He knows that Kor can manage in a battle but this is just to be safe. ]

[Look, Kor knows Chalcedony has a bug phobia, but they still need to finish the job here.]
But what if it comes back for you?
no subject
[Can he use Kor as a shield? That's allowed isn't it?]
Put sufficient distance between you and the enemy, Kor Meteor.
no subject
But wait, what about you? You're the one it wants!
no subject
I don't want to believe you even if you may be right. It has followed me all the way here.
[ Kor Meteor might be Right. ]

[Come on, Chalcedony. It's just common sense, really...]
no subject
May thunder come to smite my enemies and rend them asunder!
[He's shooting more artes at those bugs. Chalcedony REALLY doesn't like bugs. ]

Now!

Did we get it?
[Bro, he's not going up closer to check. ]

How are you feeling?
no subject
I'm okay, thanks.
[But more importantly, they beat the centipede!]
Great job there, Chal! We swatted that bug!
no subject
[ Chalcedony is immediately backing away. ]
An insect makes my armor seem feeble.
no subject
[So dramatic, Chalcedony.]
Besides, it's dead now. It can't even hurt you anymore!
no subject
[ He folds his arms together and looks dissatisfied. ]
How can you be sure it's really dead?
no subject
[He forgot what a baby Chalcedony could be about insects. That wasn't even in the top ten of scary monsters they've faced...]
You saw it disintegrate. I'm pretty sure it's dead.
no subject
Until we find the underlying cause there's always a chance that these events might repeat themselves.
[ He believes that everything's connected. ]
