It keeps going, thrashing about, and when Ciri sees its tail -- more bone than meat at this point -- whip across Alucard, she swears under her breath and yanks her sword free with a wet noise.
A moment later, she's appeared beside Alucard, the green-blue afterglow she leaves gone in a blink. It's just in time to intercept the next lash of that bony tail, which finds itself slamming into the business end of her blade. It goes flying. ]
