Kai, locked in battle with the one-eyed juggernaut, immediately sensed the arrival of a series of armed figures.
But he didn't care.
The air was thick with the iron-sweet stench of blood, and his heart thundered with ecstasy. Dominique was giving Kai a run for his money in a close, intense battle. His thoughts were fractured, running wild, and all he wanted to do was fight and kill.
'She's a strong one... so I can finally go all out.'
He moved like a blur, blood armour shifting around him like tendrils - flexible, durable, alive - bolstering every strike, redirecting every blow. His fists slammed into Dominique's enhanced frame like hammers meeting steel, the sheer shock of impact cracking the air like thunder.
Dominique grunted, but stood her ground. Each blow she took, she returned twofold, her body growing heavier with every passing second. The ground beneath her groaned and splintered, the weight of her aura increasing until she was sinking into the stone.
