BOOOM!
Both martial artists were hurled backward by the overwhelming force of Nyx's dragon breath. They struggled to regain footing until the attack finally faded.
"Agh!"
They struck again, unleashing a storm of punches against her long neck, chest, and shoulders. Her scales cracked and shattered under the barrage.
"NGRAAAH!"
Nyx snapped her jaws, biting off one man's arms, yet he kept fighting, hammering her with fists wrapped in raw Aura. The second disciple kicked the back of her head, then gathered energy in his palms and fired a concentrated beam of pure Ki.
The more she fought, the more stress built inside her.
And then...
Crack!
"There?!"
Nyx's eyes widened. She felt a tiny fracture form somewhere deep within her body.
With every blow she took, the crack spread further.
She didn't want to ask them to hit her, and she found pain irritating rather than thrilling.
