The thunder of divine punishment will not halt because of human thoughts, and time will not cease flowing forward due to human anger... at least not for now.
In the turbulent torrent of time, at the moment when the thunder struck, Shard actually clearly felt the speed of light and perceived the strange transformation of space under the divine punishment thunder.
The wrathful soul allowed the already sharp senses to probe deeper secrets of the world, the soul's tendrils embraced the world, and the instantaneous perception of space made Shard feel as though he broke some bizarre shackles. The knowledge acquired from a shallow discussion with Miss Sylvia about the secrets of space flowed through his heart like water. In the wondrous state of wrath, he stepped forward, embraced Mia by the lake, and shielded her with his back against the falling thunder.
