12.10 Off-Guard

At the Primzahl's command, the tin cans immediately sprang into action as they raised their halberds against me. With a quick duck, I squeezed myself in between a taller Dezimal's legs-

*STAB!*

-before then stabbing the poor guy in the back for even trying to attempt to take a literal stab at me. Quickly unsheathing my bloodied sword from his body-

*CLANG!*

-I then blocked an impending overhead strike before sliding my blade against the halberd's long metal handle.

"What the-"

*SLASH!*

"EERUUGH!"

Without wasting any time, I quickly jumped off of the tin can's corpse before going even further into the thick of things.

*CRACK!*

"AAARRRHGHGHGHG!!!"

A random Dezimal just screamed in pain, and that wasn't me doing it too. Shvt. He was really firing that thing indiscriminately now!

*CRACK!*
