He looked around and seeing as he was in a pinch he observed where there was the least amount of Malformed husks.
Aldrich put away his sword and exploded with such a speed that it looked like he flew out of the encirclement of the husks.
He had used his new skill, Light step. This skill doubled his speed but only as long as he moved in a straight line. This gave him an incredibly valuable method to run away—er, to make a strategic retreat.
It was not worth it to die now, he already got incredibly sick of dying to the armored husk so many times. Besides he wasn't sure that the changes in the nightmare realm were over yet.
