The Lightning imbued bullet flew straight to the target. The Goblin King, who was blinded by the ice in his eyelids, had calmed down a bit and felt the bullet coming towards him.
He swung his jagged sword, but the positioning and timing were wrong. The bullet pierced through his sword and broke it.
The Goblin King's instincts were screaming at him that he needed to evade this attack no matter what.

Lucen watched as his bullet flew. The world seemed to slow, the line of lightning tracing its path like a divine spear.
The lightning round struck true. It slammed into the Goblin King's chest with enough force to crack the bone armor enhanced by mana and tear through flesh.
The monster's body jerked violently as arcs of lightning crawled across its skin, illuminating the veins beneath like molten rivers. For a moment, Lucen thought it was over, until he saw the shift.
The Goblin King twisted at the last instant, the bullet carving a searing path just shy of his heart.
