While the battered man's time was running out, he could also feel that his chance was coming soon.
He evaded another sword strike but ended up receiving a powerful hit in the right rib.
He rolled on the ground uncontrollably a few times and stopped near one of the walls.
The man stood up again but faltered for a second, he looked down at his own body with a slight change in his expression.
He quickly shook it off and jumped at his enemy — a blurry flame that had flickered a white and reddish brown color.
He suffered from another injury which made him kneel on the ground.
The flame lingered within the darkness, and then it shot its weapon forward, finishing him off.
The fallen man who seemed to have been defeated under the flame's hand, suddenly looked up as he swiftly avoided the assault.
Then he swung his axe with all his might, confident that he could defeat the odd flame.
Thud!
"Blergh!"
