Ethan's heart pounded in his chest as he faced the undead knight.
The battleground was overgrown with tangled vines, where ancient stone building rocks lay scattered.
The knight charged at Ethan with a deafening roar.
His rusted armour clanked as he closed the distance, his eyes empty voids of darkness.
Ethan raised his sword, a glint of determination in his eyes, and met the knight's first strike with a resounding clash of steel against steel.
The force of the blow sent shockwaves through Ethan's arms, but he held his ground.
This was a level 3 monster, so he had to take it seriously.
What annoyed Ethan, though, was why it was that after he levelled up and had not yet allocated his stat points, he and his team got attacked by monsters—three undead knights, to be precise.
One of these undead knights was the one Ethan was currently facing, while the other two were locked in a fierce battle with RageHeart.
