67 Gold Hawk Slayed!

Instantly as the Gold Hawk swung its claws, ready to tear Khal's body up into several pieces, Khal's physique underwent visible changes. His white and smooth skin suddenly turned rigid and cracked while getting a deep black shade; his whole body became almost like that of those Diamond Beetles' exoskeleton.

*Clang!*

Like hitting a sword into a metal shield, the beast's claw crushed onto Khal's arm, but except for a small white mark, it was unable to wound him.

"!?"

Realized what just happened, a slight shock formed on the Gold Hawk's face but only for a fraction of a second. The next moment it flapped its wings and was ready to increase the distance but it turned out it was too late for that; a black glint flashed before its eyes and the very next second what it was able to see was as the world spun before his eyes. 

Its head had been cut off with one single move.
