Chapter 117: 117: Death
Halia groaned as the tail slammed down on her torso. Her entire body spasmed from the crushing pain.
The naga raised her tail again. She shook her head in disappointment. Her tongue flicked out as she drove the tail down to crush Halia again. To end her life. But she was Anguin's daughter. She wouldn't die without taking her enemy with her.
She twisted her sword and held it upright, the point buzzing. Then she thrust at the tail plunging at her. Her blade struck the scales. The two forces met, intensifying the strength of her stab. Last time, she failed to penetrate.
This time, the naga helped her.
Halia's blade buried deep into the naga's tail. The serpentine monster girl hissed in pain, her tits heaving. She recoiled back, pulling her tail off the blade. Blood gushed. The naga cried in pain, her face twisting from the agony of this moment.
It gave Halia the opening she needed. She rolled to her feet, ignoring the bruising pain across her torso, and rushed in at the naga. Justice blazed inside of Halia. Leo had proven himself to be a good dungeon builder, and his monster girls were sweet and adorable, but not this naga. Nor her master.
They had to pay for their crimes.

I rolled to the right.
The rakshasa landed where I had been. She spun around and snarled. Jindag turned in her direction, his eyes covered by the blinding darkness. He gripped his warhammer in his hand. Rage twisted across his face. I scrambled to stand, my wet robes clinging to me. My breastplate squeezed about my chest, making every breath difficult.
"Where is he?" demanded Jindag.
"Your left, Lord Jindag!" the feline hissed. "Let's kill him together. Follow!" Roaring like a tiger, she rushed at me.
Jindag followed, running, raising his warhammer. He swung it blindly before him, a behemoth hurtling at me. I darted to my right, almost tripping over my wet robes. Her claws slashed into my hip, ripping through my robe and biting deep into my flesh.
"I have bloodied him!" she snarled. She slid to a stop on the wet floors and whirled to face me.
Jindag stumbled past, swinging his warhammer.
"Turn right, Lord!" she cried.
Jindag whirled to his right, swinging his warhammer at me. The brutal weapon swung for me. At the same time, the rakshasa pounced at my right to pen me in. To keep me from escaping. I thew myself to my belly. I landed with a clatter, grunting.
The warhammer howled over my head, the air from its passage rippling down at me. Jindag snarled and then flowed his attack into a downward slam at me. I rolled to my right. The heavy weapon crashed into the tiled floors. Stone chips burst from the impact.
The rakshasa landed on me. Her claws slammed into my breastplate. Her teeth snapped sharp down at my throat. I thrust my hands up and grabbed her neck. My fingers slid through her fur until my hand grabbed her beneath her chin, wrenching her jaws away from my flesh. Feline hisses burst from her mouth.
"What's going on?" Jindag shouted, hefting his weapon again. "Baaghi?"
Green eyes, reflective and slit like a cat's, stared down at me. Whiskers twitched from her cheeks as she hissed at me. Her sharp fangs snapped as she struggled to rip out my throat. I wouldn't let her.
"Spark of lightning, crackle of electricity, let the wrath of Lord Enlil explode!"
She couldn't dodge the spell at this range. It struck her body. Sparks erupted. She hissed in feline pain. Her body thrashed. I heaved her to my left, rolling her into Jindag's feet. Her body thrashed. A wound smoked on her breasts.
"Baaghi!" Jindag howled. He bent down and put a hand on her chest. "Blossom and regrow with life, let the vitality of Lord Dumazid heal!"
I saw my opening as he healed the rakshasa. I thrust out my hand and growled, "Sizzling touch, the spark of pain, let the prowess of Lord Enlil stun!"
The smoking wound vanished from her chest as my crackling palm smacked Jindag in the face. Electricity arched into him. He reeled back and sprawled unconscious. His body twitching from my spell's effect, incapacitated.
"Lord Jindag!" roared Baaghi.
She threw herself at me. I grunted as the force of her fury slammed me back. I hit the tiled floors. My head snapped into the stone.
Stars burst across my body. A dizzying wave washed over me. Metal ripped from my chest. I lay there, disoriented. Stunned. A hissing fury fell on me, a furry comet. Claws tore into my chest, raking down my flesh. The pain felt so remote. Distant.
This was a problem. But my body didn't want to move.
