Warily alternating my gaze between the hammer wielding man and the lazy Fiend, I held my sword loosely by my side while I recuperated some more mana after the earlier debacle, while also trying to buy myself more time since I needed to think about what to do.
This Fiend was clearly the looming threat that I had been waiting for, one that was so clearly above the mortal grasp of power that I knew fully well that there was little chance of coming out alive should they actually desire a fight.
That realization was a harrowing one as I stared at the Fiend, and it made my heart drop a little as I wondered how likely it was for me to find a way to come out of this alive, if there was anything I could do to return to everyone else before this teleporting Fiend could grab me again.
