Chapter 111: All In

A scalding agony he had never felt before assaulted Adam's arms as his two blades cleaved through the pillar of flames. Yet, only a low grunt escaped his lips when he shoved his weapons to slice the Balor's neck.

It was as if time slowed to a crawl in that second. His mind thundered as he watched five weapons whistle through the air, leaving red, dark, and silver trails.

'Slice through!'

Hope and despair melded in his drumming heart as his abyssal blade connected with the Balor's skin first. The impact sent wild tremors jolting his arms, yet he clenched his jaws, a steely glint flashing in his eyes. 

He had expected the skin's texture to feel as hard as quenched steel and knew his blade wouldn't slice through in a single strike. That's why his silver blade drew a bright arc a split second later!

BANG

He swung the silver blade like a sledgehammer, smashing it into his first weapon to drive it deeper into the Balor's flesh.
