Damien pushed off the cracked wall just in time..Igris's greatsword cleaved through the space where his head had been a second earlier, carving a deep trench into the marble floor. The shockwave alone stung Damien's skin.
The Marshal pressed forward without pause.
A horizontal slash whistled through the air. Damien ducked under it, slid across the marble, and leapt in—daggers flashing.
His blades rang against Igris's armor, leaving shallow scratches but drawing no real reaction. The red knight didn't even flinch.
Damien clicked his tongue and activated Quicksilver, his body exploding with speed. He darted left, right, up the columns, springing off walls, using every angle to strike—
Igris turned once.
One sweep of the greatsword generated a shock current that tore through the air, catching Damien mid-dash.
BOOM—!
Damien was smashed against a pillar. Dust and stone rained over him as he staggered out, ribs screaming.
But he didn't retreat.
He activated Bloodlust.
A cold focus swallowed his pain. His vision sharpened—time stretched.
Igris lunged.
Damien met him head-on.
He slipped under the greatsword, spun behind the knight, and jammed his daggers into the gaps of the armor—under the arm, behind the knee, between plates. Sparks flew as the blades screeched against the dense material.
Igris responded with brutal efficiency.
A backhand strike.A knee aimed for Damien's gut.A downward smash that cratered the floor.
Damien barely rolled away each time, but each dodge cost him breath, stamina, life.
"Tch… you hit like a truck," he hissed.
Igris moved again, faster this time—almost teleporting—and forced Damien onto the defensive, step by step. His daggers clashed with Igris's blade again and again until—
CRACK!
The greatsword struck at an odd angle, and Damien's right-hand dagger snapped clean in half.
Before he could recover, Igris grabbed him by the throat, lifted him, and hurled him across the hall.
Damien bounced twice and skidded, coughing violently.
He rose shakily, wiping blood from his mouth. "Okay… new plan."
He sheathed his remaining dagger.
And activated the Wolf Set's Grieve Ability....It was the only possible plan now, due to the Future sight set ability still being locked behind a timer.
Metal claws extended from his grieves with a shnk, gleaming with predatory intent.
Damien burst forward, this time fighting like a beast—running low, circling fast, slashing upward in curved arcs with the claws at Igris's legs and joints.
The Marshal parried with unnatural grace for someone his size, sparks flying as claw met steel. Damien used the tight corridors of the hall to ricochet around him, diving in from blind spots—
—until Igris read his momentum.
The knight turned and struck the ground.
A shockwave of pure force blasted outward.
Damien was flung into the air, and mid-flight, Igris appeared above him and smashed him down—
Straight onto the remains of the shattered marble.
Damien gasped, vision dimming. Something cracked in his shoulder. His breath came in ragged bursts.
But he forced himself up.He had to.
I've still got one dagger…
He charged again.
This time, both fighters clashed in the center of the hall—sword vs dagger, claws vs gauntlet. The ground cracked beneath them as they exchanged rapid, brutal blows.
Damien managed to slip behind Igris and hook his dagger into the knight's neck plate, forcing it aside.
Igris responded by grabbing Damien by the arm and swinging him like a ragdoll. Damien's dagger flew across the hall, clattering against the far wall.
Damien landed painfully, rolling until he stopped near a shattered column.
Both weapons gone.
Both fighters breathing hard.
Igris stepped forward, letting the greatsword fall with a heavy clang.
A challenge.
Damien spat blood, then grinned savagely."Fine. Hands only."
He activated Mind's Eye—the world slowing just enough for him to read Igris's stance.
They clashed.
Damien slipped past a heavy punch and countered with a rapid combo to the torso. His fists hammered the armor—thok, thok, thok—each impact sending pain lancing through his knuckles.
Igris punched back like a battering ram.
Damien blocked with his forearms, felt the bones rattle, then darted in to deliver a downward blow to Igris's helmet.
He didn't dent it.
But he made it tilt.
Encouraged, Damien pressed harder, each hit more desperate.
Blood dripped from his knuckles.His wrists ached.His breath was ragged.
Yet he kept swinging.
Igris fought with relentless precision. A gauntleted fist punched into Damien's side—he felt something give. Another hit clipped his jaw. A knee almost collapsed his ribs.
But Damien endured, weaving through the storm, striking whenever he saw an opening.
"I—" smash"am not—" thok"losing—" crack"to a dead man!"
He ducked under a heavy swing and rose with everything he had in a brutal uppercut straight into the helmet's chin.
CRAAAAACK—!
A fracture appeared.
Igris staggered.
Damien didn't stop. He jumped, wrapped both hands around the top of the helmet, and drove his forehead into it.
CRACK!
The fracture widened.
Igris reached for him—
Damien roared and slammed his fist into the helmet one final time with every ounce of strength left in his body.
BOOOOOOM!
The helmet shattered.
Shadowy mist exploded outward.Igris froze—then his towering form crumbled, collapsing into fading darkness.
Damien fell to one knee, gasping, bleeding, exhausted beyond belief.
The System chimed.
The hall fell silent.
And Damien—bloody knuckles, torn clothes, body trembling—finally whispered:
"…I won." said Damien as he laid on his back...His body shimmering....Leveling up...
"Marshal Igris....Huh....This was him in a D Ranked Dungeon...In his weakest possible form.....Yet....Still did all that shit to me....." said Damien
