The never ending clashing of swords seemed to have done a number on Inigo, for his movements seem to be slowed, only allowing him to block every other attack from Cilia. Most of the slashes make their mark, causing to stifle a howl in pain each time. The next attack sends him flying a few feet. It's even an effort for him to get up. "This...can't be...I won't allow this to happen, damn it!" He says, charging towards her for one last strike, his body flaring as he casts Ignis on himself.
