Villain Ch 1095. Graveborn Warlord And Harrowing Specter
Their swords met again, and this time, Allen parried the Warlord's strike with a swift counterattack. He slashed upward, his blade cutting across the Warlord's side. It wasn't a deep wound, but it was enough to make the creature stagger back, its fiery eyes narrowing in pain and fury.
'Almost there,' Allen thought to himself, his breath heavy. He could feel his pulse pounding in his ears, but he couldn't stop now.
The Warlord growled, raising its sword for another heavy strike. But Allen was faster. He dodged to the side, using his momentum to drive his sword toward the rune. The Warlord twisted at the last moment, deflecting the blow with its armor. The force of the impact sent Allen sliding back a few feet, his boots skidding across the stone ground.
