Once again sheer preparedness saves the day and my shiny hide. My first Soul Shield quickly gave after a few meagre seconds under the Mayor's crackling, torrenting fist of wind.
Sending out the second, prepared shield is not my current problem however. As the blazing wind and arching lightning passes through my hair and grazes my sides ever so often.
I worry about how my several protruding hands of Death gripping unto his sides refuse to leave him unable to stand.
I thought for sure that if anything were to be the ultimate weapon against literally everyone, it would be necrosis. But here I am, setting out twenty length arms of green mana as Death Grips on the Mayor and still he refuses to die.
Fucking hell, what else isn't going my way?
"Ugh!" I strain, not just from the pressure of keeping my Shield in one piece but also from the blaring sound that's been in the back of my mind since his fists landed. It's screaming, screeching even.
