His knees buckled, and he came down, coughing globules of thick blood. He was bleeding internally, and his muscles were like shredded meat, making him wince with every movement.

Serpent’s God Wrath was the most potent technique in Kai’s arsenal. As usual, he was supposed to perform it with two sabers. But he couldn’t because of the wounded shoulder. The cost? His left hand.
All the built-up strength which he should have channeled into the saber found no outlet source.
That strength rebounded, crushing his bone from within.
