"Take this!"
The moment he threw the ax at Ulrik, Grenald didn't bother to check whether it hit its aim or not.
Rather, he couldn't afford to, because Kurt was once again upon him.
He threw the ax and immediately made a complete turn, and what his eyes met was the lethal sharpened tip of Kurt's spear thundering towards his face.
With a thought, the armor attached to his abdomen moved to his right arm to form a shield-
*KANG!*
-that allowed him to narrowly escape certain death. But the momentum behind the attack saw Grenald blown a distance away before stopping.
Blood dripped from his right wrist. The metal hadn't hardened fast enough and allowed the spearhead to penetrate it and leave a large cut.
The culprit responsible for this chose not to follow up with another attack and began speaking instead.
"Wow, you stopped that? I have to say, I'm impressed"
Kurt flashed a cocky grin as he said those words, his body glowing brighter by the minute.
