Soverick sensed the wind direction and velocity with his divine sense. He activated the coiling dragon technique in his arm for good measure. Better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.
He breathed in, held in his breath, then he threw the stone at the rat. The stone sailed through the air and struck the rat as it was diving down for the kill. The stone hit the skull and cracked it before lodging itself into it.
The rat continued its downward descent but its flight path was a little off. Apart from that, there wasn't any other visible difference or a sign to indicate if it is dead or alive. It wasn't flapping its wings anymore but that may be because it is diving. Soverick moved from his position and he was sure that the sky rat would crash into the ground a few meters in front of him since the airborne vermin didn't follow his movements. He released the breath he had been holding in and sighed in relief. The threat was averted. Then his face changed.
