The Medallion

In the blink of an eye, the flesh threads tied Rocky's limbs and body by wrapping themselves around him, which rendered him immobile, and he resembled a large cocoon.

"Damn it!" Rocky swore angrily. His situation was grim and he was desperate. Now that all of him was tied up, he could do nothing to escape from that nasty place.

But then, something that Rocky could not imagine happened. He found that his body's spiritual power began to diminish gradually. It appeared that the flesh threads that were wrapped around him had started absorbing his body's spiritual power, and Rocky could feel that it was draining out of his body.

Rocky's expression changed and he was alarmed. He could see that if the flesh threads continued to absorb his spiritual power in that way, the beast could kill him before he could release himself from the flesh threads' constricting restraint, or attempt an escape from the beast's stomach. Just then, he remembered the corpse and the bones he had seen inside the stomach some time back. Finally, he realized what had happened. It seemed that the beast had eaten many spirit manipulators earlier. But it absorbed their spiritual power before it killed them all.

"Damn! Now I know that the Rainbow Glow Unicorn was actually trying to murder me!" Rocky said more desperately. Now that Rocky had understood everything, and had seen the fate that had befallen spirit manipulators in the past, he was scared, and his face became ashen. Had he been free, he would have tried every trick he knew to get out his current predicament. But now that he was tied up, what could he do? Never in his life had he felt so forlorn, as he did then. As he lay there, he could constantly feel the flesh threads drain his spiritual power. Moreover, he knew that they would not stop until they had absorbed all of it, and he had turned into the same dry corpse as the ones he had seen.

found himself in that an impossible situation, he became clear-headed and could visualize what he wanted. His survival instinct came to the forefront, and he seemed to have taken control of his emotions. Rocky started running through whatever information about the spirit-manipulated beast from the Beast Encyclopedia. He knew that the more information he had about the creature, the higher would be his chances of a successful escape from its belly. He was reminded of an old saying, "Only by knowing yourself and your enemies can you fight a hundred battles with no danger of defeat," and he was greatly inspired. Now that he was trapped, all he wanted to know was how to escape from such a miserable situation. Soon, he spotted the relevant information about the spirit-manipulated beast that would help him save himself from what
