Theobald could be seen swinging his swords against the two bony hands that constantly tried to stab his heart. The captain was already perspiring, having been swinging his sword non-stop for more than ten minutes against the rapid attacks.
Not so far away, Alister could be seen sprinting towards the main body of the abnormality while blocking off the other hands twisting towards him from different directions.
His uniform was already stained with blood from two new injuries sustained in the last ten minutes. His body was constantly reminded of the pain as he moved around.
"Caring about the hands would only lead to exhaustion. I need to find a way to end its life before it ends mine," Alister concluded.
Since he arrived in this world, this was the only time he doubted his capability to survive. The three injuries on his body made him realize how possible his death was.
