The claws tore at her abdomen. But it wasn't just that—the sheer speed of the attack was terrifying. Veyna couldn't even track it with her eyes.
Her eyes widened. How was this possible? Had she miscalculated her enemy?
Meanwhile, Eccar grinned wider and delivered a powerful kick, sending Veyna hurtling backward. She tumbled through the air for a few seconds before stabilizing herself, activating the thrusters on her back to stop her momentum.
"Ugh…"
She groaned, glancing down to see a reddish liquid leaking from her abdomen. It wasn't blood. Her body had long since stopped needing blood to sustain itself. This was her energy source.
"Shit."
Cursing, Veyna focused her system on healing her body and sealing the wound.
She looked up to see Eccar flying toward her at a leisurely pace, as if he wasn't in a hurry to end this fight.
