This would be the last skill he could comfortably pop if he wanted to keep aura in reserve for upcoming battles. His Aura regeneration is very slow. Kai hammered forward, ignoring the growing bruise in his side. He battered Rok'tar's leg, aiming for the same spot he'd tested earlier.
The alpha's chitin cracked faintly, a spiderweb line forming from repeated hits. Each blow that drew true damage from the alpha (not merely a deflection or a near-miss) inched the monstrous beast toward its demise, but he had to keep hitting, keep pressing until the alpha's HP dropped to zero.
Thren and Renna scrambled along Rok'tar's flanks, slashing and drawing the alpha's attention away just enough for Kai to slip in more lethal strikes. Lomar, severely wounded, still mustered enough courage to lob ranged stingers from the side, chipping further away at the beast's stamina.
