The Nightmare deftly slid every eye on its limbs onto a single tentacle in an instant, then thrust that tentacle into the passage to evade Vanessa's [Spirituality Pressure]!
It was so practiced that it seemed to have done this thousands of times before.
Without eye contact, [Spirituality Pressure] lost much of its effect. With its eyes hidden, the Nightmare suffered almost no harm at all!
Furious, Vanessa kicked its tentacle hard with her boot, then clutched her foot, her face contorting.
She really had no way to deal with the Nightmare.
"Stop!"
Vanessa could only shout anxiously.
But no sooner had she spoken than the tentacles filling the air suddenly came together as one.
The enormous Nightmare bundled all its tentacles together, forming a thicker, longer tentacle, then slowly twisted. Its entire body kept building tension like a spring, and even the top of the tower it was coiled around began to creak under the strain.
Then, under Vanessa's astonished gaze, the muscles of that enormous tentacle bulged, and savage power erupted!
The tentacle swung through the air several times, gathering greater force with every swing. Once that force reached its peak, it slammed into Maeve's backside.
Maeve let out a wail unlike anything Vanessa had ever heard. The blow sent her flying straight out of the passage, trailing a white streak behind her backside.

Like a baseball knocked high into the air, Maeve flew far from the passage in an instant and swiftly vanished!
The seawater that had been blocked gushed out again, plunging downward. Just as it was about to wash Vanessa away, the Nightmare curled a tentacle around her and lifted her aside.
"You! Look what you've done!" Vanessa
