Our battle was ongoing. I fought with my stick while he countered with his axe and lightning bolts. Despite his build, he was fast - as if the lightning bolts were enhancing his strength and speed.
Initially, I thought he could only control the lightning with his axe. However, when he dropped it several times during our battle, I realized the axe wasn't necessary. I made quick attacks on his chest and head with my club, but he managed to block them with his axe.
Another issue was my close attacks. As I got closer, he could use his lightning power on me at any moment. So for the time being, I couldn't touch him - neither from close nor far. The elite soldier gripped his axe tightly and swung it at me quickly from the right and left.
As I dodged the blows, he finally raised his axe and swung it down at me. I threw my stick forward to stop his axe, but the look on his face showed that this was exactly what he wanted.
