While Clara and Selena killed their opponents, a situation quite similar yet different played out on multiple fronts.
.........
Jessy, hit by the winged beast, was injured.
Metal shrieked as her iron surfboard skidded across blackened stone, sparks spraying like dying stars.
Her body slammed into the ground a heartbeat later, blood streaking across the air before splattering onto her cheek.
Her ribs screamed, but she rolled, boots scraping, and forced herself to her feet.
It would've been impossible for someone else to get up right after being hit by a tenth-level beast, but Jessy was different.
After all, Jessy was the tank of the group, though not the only one after Graye joined the group.
The dragon-winged beast, on the other hand, landed with a quake, molten eyes narrowing as Graye's laughter carried across the storm.
A deep, contemptuous chuckle rumbled from its throat.
