That last blow did it.
~BOOOOM!~
In a rush of wind and unstoppable force, Adonis sprang forth like an ascending meteor. His body became shrouded in brilliant light as he charged straight for the beast.
He ripped into the beast's mouth and burst out through the other end, searing its body with enough pressure to cause blood to splash all over.
By the time he made his triumphant exit, it was already too late.
… The beast was dead.
Blood spilled all over the ground as Adonis stood over the creature's corpse, his tired body hunched over a little in an attempt to display exhaustion.
Despite how wretched he looked, covered in the vile blood of the enemy, he smiled in victory.
"I did it…" He muttered, still feeling the sting of the battle—or, at least pretending to.
Everything was perfectly set up to lead to this moment.
"I really did it!"
