Calamity of Dread [3]

Appearing underneath the serpent was Lucas, swinging his blade diagonally while it was still in its sheath.

Surrounded by his aura, the blade of chaos formed a cut beneath the serpent's head, causing it to let out an annoyed shriek as it wasn't deep enough.

Lucas, teleporting back atop an old building, looked at the serpent, which was glaring at him with fury.

Green venom could be seen starting to drip from its sharp fangs.

The ground started to dissolve, with smoke beginning to rise from it.

Just as it was about to lunge at Lucas,

Seraphina jumped out of the shadow beneath the serpent, leaping mid-air as she was about to cut its right eye out.

Her dagger hummed through the air, leaving a trail of black and white behind.

Just as it was about to hit the serpent's eye, it twisted its head in time to the right, avoiding the strike as it swung its tail faster than she could react.
