Cid - Resilience 2

As soon as he blindly steps forward, she greets him with her holy blade.

She leads with a thrust.

The attack cleaves through the air at a blistering clip, then pierces his abdomen.

The merciless strike runs him through.

“Gotcha.” As he’s stabbed, a grin spreads across Cid’s bloodstained face.

He grabs Olivier’s arm, then yanks with all his might. His muscles bulge, screaming as they exceed their limits.

For just one instant, Olivier’s movements are locked in place.

And she’s in the perfect range for a half-broken sword.

Cid’s blade slices toward the arteries in her neck, and Olivier bends backward to evade the blow.

However, doing so ruins her center of gravity.

Tossing aside his sword, Cid grabs Olivier and pins her.

Then he bites down on her carotid artery.

His teeth impale her slender neck, then sink into the vein.

He holds her tight and presses down on her struggling arms as he chews. Each time his teeth dig into her artery, Olivier’s body convulses.
