106: Rid of the pest

The chimera made good use of Maria’s distraction to get a headstart but it did not help. The veins around them were just too thin to be used to get to the center and Maria felt her knees about to give out due to the echoed pain she felt.

It hurt, hurt bad and Maria felt her body push itself unconsciously back on her feet. Her chains made a clumsy attack on the chimera which was easily dodged by the female. The follow-up attacks were not any better in quality and strength.

Maria’s head felt light and empty as she attacked. It made it very difficult to time or power her attacks up but it did make Maria capable of hitting some of the attacks on Rocci.

However, despite it all, it was not enough for Maria to be able to push the female back and the chains were beginning to drain Maria of her power. The heat was only a matter of time now and Maria hated to think of the consequences it would bring.
