Titanium Hammer Enters Battle

The air crackled with tension as a ghastly laugh echoed through the desolate landscape, drawing the attention of both Great Sorcerer Titanium Hammer and Hadrumei. From the shadows, a hooded figure emerged, cloaked in tattered black robes that fluttered eerily in the wind. His pale skin was marked with strange pitch-black symbols, twisting and writhing like living shadows upon his flesh.

"As expected of Titanium Hammer of the Brander Clan," the figure mocked, his voice smooth yet devoid of warmth. "Apart from performing the {Greater Dragon's Shift} earth teleportation spell, you were also able to use the {Great Dust Clone Substitution} sorcery to avoid suffering the perilous blow from my Soul Crushing Longspear—all in a matter of seconds. Very impressive. Your Brander Earth Dragon Canon is indeed extraordinary. I'm jealous." The laughter that followed was ghastly, devoid of any true mirth.
