Tuxedo Maskless and the two knight versions of him combined, but he was still the same. Or that is what I thought.
Suddenly, Tuxedo Maskless was in front of me, and I was barely able to block his strike. I was sent back another ten feet, and there was a downward strike before I could react.
I tried to block, but I was driven down, and I wasn't going to be able to stop the hammer. I rolled to the side, and I was forced to drop the battle-ax as I did.
Tuxedo Maskless was literally three times as strong and as fast as he was before when I fought him. Fighting with him now was like fighting someone completely different and using two weapons meant to be wielded with two hands.
Then one of the Knights split off from Tuxedo Maskless to grab up the battle-ax as he rushed me. I sprung up, bringing the sword up in an arch, deflecting the hammer strike that wasn't as strong as before.
