Cid - Foot Stab

As I repel the blow with my katana, I kick her in the leg.

A slime sword extends from the tip of my foot and impales her. As of late, I’ve mostly been using it as a prop for when I want to get theatrical, but it’s invaluable against strong enemies as a way to throw them off-balance.

For a beat, she stops moving, and a moment is all I need.

Violet smiles, accepting the outcome.

“I wanted to fight you at your full strength.”

As fresh blood sprays through the air, I whisper in a low voice only Violet can hear.
