The other form of the book was much more interesting than the first, with the sound of a clanging bell, the axe of broke when it came into contact with the mage's barrier. Still possessed by hatred, Max's hands charged with a red energy, the sound repeated hundreds of times as he kept attacking with one punch after another.
In Ryan's mind, there were only two possibilities for the conclusion of that confrontation. Either Ettrian would strike one last time with a supercharged attack, or the barrier would break down. The number of Max's punches kept increasing, to the point that it was no longer possible to hear the interval between the hits, it was just a single constant noise.
