The Unstoppable Assault

Greg wielded Crusher with unparalleled finesse, its length, composed entirely of mana, bore no weight, yet at one meter forty, it towered over his own height, steadfastly parrying Soma's relentless onslaught from every direction.

Though minor injuries accumulated across his body, Greg's defensive stance only grew more solid with each passing moment.

As he had mentioned before, Greg had never completed beastification—not due to a lack of mana manipulation, but a lack of inherent talent.

Beastification was a skill reserved solely for magi of pure enhancement lineage.
