Louis was in trouble.
After he finished off a Martial Mantis, a male emerged, intent on mating with her. Enraged at the sight of its potential mate slain and torn to shreds, the creature attacked furiously. It charged forward and unleashed two powerful Crimson Sword Qi slashes with its giant scythes. The devastating attack sliced through the ground and dozens of trees across the forest before striking him.
BOOOM!
"Nnngghaa?!"
Louis let out a pained growl from his jaws as he crashed into the forest, smashing through a tree before landing on a pile of wood.
"Haaa… Ungh…"
His body was covered in two sharp slicing wounds, bleeding profusely.
"Cough…"
He coughed up a mouthful of blood, his eyes widening as he realized he had been caught off guard.
Now, what could he do to survive?
Escape?
Turn back to normal and kill this thing?
That seemed like the best way to deal with it, but…
Something deep within his Dragon Heart raged against the idea.
