The combined assault of Nicholas and Lyle proved to be too much for the already weakened drake. The darkness-infused blade and the blood spears tore through its scales and flesh, causing it to let out a final, agonized roar before collapsing to the ground, lifeless.
Nicholas and Lyle stood over the fallen drake, breathing heavily but victorious. The once formidable monster lay defeated at their feet, its body battered and broken.
Nicholas had quickly taken his darkness away in order not to destroy more of the drake's body, and Lyle had done the same with his blood spears, turning them into nothing more than blood that he quickly willed away from the drake.
"It was inexperienced, but the bloodline inside of the drake can give quite the boost," Nicholas said as he crouched down.
