Chapter 1132: Not So Friendly Part Of Town

Letting the unconscious Dogkin drop to the ground, I moved forwards and leaned into the next hammer strike, using both hands to stabilize my shield as I absorbed the next heavy blow without even pausing my gradual advance, earning a surprised shout from the wielder of the hammer.

"Gods be damned! TO ARMS!"

Roaring as he pulled that hammer back and shrouded it in flames once more, the man made no effort at all to approach this fight with any sort of tact or strategy, opting instead for brute force incarnate as he prepared to swing his weapon once more.

I could have slammed my shield into his chest and broken most of his ribs, leaving him to twitch on the ground as he tried to figure out what went wrong, but instead I funneled more Light Mana towards my shield arm and planted my feet as I decided to give Anput's shield another test.
