The blade sliced through her flesh with ease and revealed the bone that housed her negligible organic matter after having torn her arm into two pieces, leaving me to be the victor of this trade of ours.
Yes my left hip was egregiously injured, yes I was going to need an enormous amount of healing magic in order to even just shuffle around again, but it was worth it if I could just get this blade to slip even closer to the side...
And yet the Elf was proving to be extremely resilient when she was backed into a corner like this, the sheer amount of mana cocooning her head halting my blade just as it was about to completely slice through the bone and ensuring I felt every single broken shard of bone in my own body.
The strain and adrenaline were at war with one another as I fought through the pain to try and kill her, and yet all I could manage was this giant cut alongside her skull as well as a portion of her elongated, sharpened ear being sliced off cleanly too.
