He continues circling for another moment before charging with his shield raised trying to bash the creature with it before hacking low with his blade at its legs.
The creature is hit by the shield and stumbles back, before blocking the swing with his axe shaft. Then, he pushes him back and swings hard for his shield.
The axe hits the shield, but the thrust only grazes the leg, opening up a minor flesh wound. Nevertheless, the thing was pissed, and roars again, swinging an overhead strike down.
The creature screams out with pain as the blade bites deep, before diving away from him, side dripping acidic blood that steamed as it hit the ground. This time, it circles around, waiting for him to make the first move.
The thing sidesteps, before swinging down at the shield hard enough to force him to drop it, before turning to him and narrowing his eyes. "Now... You are finished." He growls .
"We'll see." He hisses as he circles it for a minute before rushing him and feints a swing with his blade as his tail shoots foward aiming to wrap around the axe and drive it to the ground.
"Wow. It's dented..." She mutters, sighing with annoyance and glaring at the pile of dust that used to be the creature. "Annoying cunt." She mutters, scuttling ahead.
'Thanks' he replies before turning to the others "Its somewhere this way." As he says as he points with is blade to the right, and starts walking in that direction.
"Just a warning... I'm not going to be able to help you from the next level onwards. My sight, you see. It's not what it used to be. And no, I cannot use your eyes to see. My influence is not strong enough to penetrate the depth."
'Well it is hell I shouldn't get my hopes up on a level which is nice and sunny with a beach. Anyway what's the next level like?' He replies as he steps over a rotting corpse.
