I was wrong.
Terribly wrong. It was not a 'bludgeoning' type of pain, but rather a sharp, piercing pain. A pain that then evolved to a tortuous pain.
I wondered, was my mind messed up because I was in that storm for so long, or is it just me?
As soon as I had sliced his arm off, I was ready to cut deep into his chest, perhaps even severing it. But it was right then.
He said 'Yo', and alarm bells rang continuously in my mind, yet like the idiot I was I ignored them and continued forward.
I should not have done that, I should have backed away... But then to what? The abyssal storm of mana behind me, waiting to decay my body to dust? At that point, wouldn't the correct point of action be to charge forward and remove the cause?
Yeah, it was, the only problem was that I was an idiot and had mistakenly believed the scythe he had could not hurt me, and even if it did, it would probably be just a blunt attack.
I couldn't be more wrong.
