Cain snarled, reeling from the impact as blood spurted from his wounds. Yet even as pain surged through him, a meaningful light appeared in his eyes as he spotted an opening. His claws glowed with dark energy as he pushed Reaper Touch to its limit, slashing downward with deadly intent.
Ophiron moved instantly, reacting to the dragon's massive claw. However, due to their close proximity, the claws still grazed his chest, leaving deep and large wounds. Immediately, Reaper Touch activated, and the wound began to fester, the destructive energy eating away at the battle monk's defenses.
The monk grimaced as the wound expanded and deepened, his energy working desperately to fight back the curse-like attack. But even in his pained state, he refused to let the injury slow him. In a flash, Ophiron dashed forward at full speed, appearing right in front of Cain's enormous dragon form, his hands glowing even brighter.
"Double Golden Palm of the Buddha!"
