Chapter 105: Interlude - Battle of the Second Stratum - Part 2

A moment later, Professor Fayren broke out in a burst of magic.

"Quit toying with them and finish this," Fayren snarled at the Knight Commander as soon as he took in the situation.

Rain turned to find Dun's forehead colliding with his face despite their significant height differences, and he felt a crack in his nose as he was forced back.

"Did you honestly think your little parlor tricks would kill me?" Dun said as he stood, destroying all four of the blades inside him with a single swipe of his sword.

Rain wiped away the blood from under his nose. He almost disbelieved the degree of regeneration he could see through the holes in Dun's armor. It should have been impossible... unless Commander Dun was a maven with a regeneration ability, but such abilities were typically weak, mana-intensive, and not very responsive to improvement since the most consistent way to do so was to inflict increasingly torturous amounts of pain and damage to the body.
