Jack greatly appreciates the space, Aya, as the monster gets out of his face. Rather than going for another melee attack, Jack levels his sword towards the beast, but instead of a slice, a wave of darkness curls out towards the Rex. Soul Eater. Jack is getting much more used to the funneling of his own pain, the drain on his own hit points, that transforms into an attack outwards.

Unfortunately, the monster seems to think that casting magic is a splendid idea, and opens its jaws wide to breathe fire at Jack in retaliation. Jack lets out a yell more of frustration than anything else as he tries to cover up.
