Black Badger

The nail broke.

The sharp nail shattered, slicing its body diagonally. The blood was red. Clutching my left shoulder, which felt like it was about to fall off, I took a breath.

The attack had landed properly.

It collapsed to the floor. Its body tumbled, spilling blood. But it was still breathing. I gripped my right hand tightly and charged at the fallen creature.

I had to sever the tendons.

I had to cut the tendons.

"Hyah!"

I stabbed.

I plunged the knife into its ankle.
