A Paladin’s Corruption

As Isidor stood before Alice, the knight had his entire back stained with blood from Claudia's previous projectile.

It wouldn't have been a big deal if Claudia weren't a vampire lady, but considering that she was able to manipulate blood, Isidor knew he was at a disadvantage.

The moment that Isidor tried to take a step forward, the blood on his back began to sizzle as if it were trying to burn through his armor. Still, he ignored it and rushed with his sword in hand.

The cacophony of the blades striking each other echoed on the streets, and while Isidor got more frustrated and angry as their encounter prolonged, Alice kept her focus unwavering.

While their blades crossed, Isidor felt numerous projectiles striking his armor and splashing him with blood all over, which started sizzling almost instantly. Nonetheless, the knight couldn't ignore Alice's presence.
