Chapter 4: "Monsters" Part 11

Seth disappeared from Henry and Cain's vision, inducing a feeling of fear and anxiety in the duo.

They had no other recourse than to raise their blades and protect their vitals.

The sound of his sword tearing through the air above Henry alerted his senses, his instincts screaming at him to raise his sword.

He swiftly raised his sword and braced himself for impact.

CLANG!*

Henry successfully blocked the strike from above, but the sheer force behind Seth's sword drove him to his knees, his arms absorbing the brunt force of the impact, straining his muscles.

The ground beneath bore witness to the overwhelming power exerted, Henry's knees digging through it. The scene resembled a nail being hammered.

"Urk!"

Henry struggled to push back Seth's sword, feeling as though his spine was about to snap in half and his arms visibly trembling.

"How dare you make me bleed in front of my Lord!"

Seth bellowed, gnashing his teeth.
