Moments later, before the golden-winged beast could react, a dazzling spark of lightning emerged on a glass shard, then refracted to the surrounding shards.
The result was a blinding flare that lit up the night sky with a resonating 'BOOOMM!!'
Knowing that her distraction wouldn't last for long, Esther sheathed her blade.
She turned around and leapt up, descending to the ground.
"ROOAARRR!!"
Unfortunately, the golden-winged beast quickly recovered its composure and chased after her.
It looked much angrier than before. It parted its jaws, unleashing a terrifying breath of poisonous purple flame.
Esther failed to react on time.
Before she knew what had transpired, the purple flames knocked her forward with a resonating 'Banngg!' and slammed her to the ground, engulfing her and her surrounding rocky plain.
Esther coughed, her body wracked with pain.
She wiped the blood trickling down her lips, her strength waning with each passing moment.
