"Could it be... I missed?"
Indra lowered his head in thought.
He recalled the Halahala light fired from his divine armor.
He had fired several blasts of poisonous light at Golden Bed. Though every shot had landed accurately on Golden Bed without touching Narasimha, Narasimha had been subduing Golden Bed all along, so it was only natural that he would be tainted by Halahala.
