From my left, the white marble-like spear came rushing, but I blocked with my sword. Again, the impact made my hands wobble like jelly. I tried grabbing his spear with [Shadow Limbs], but they faded the moment they made contact.
The pillar man grabbed my face with his free hand, but I quickly slid out with [Slime Body]. [Overload Armour] immediately went into action, giving me a 60% boost in all stats and a 100% boost in defence. The fire scarf around my neck was now blue and hazy.
Even then, my stats were less than his. He roared loudly out of nowhere and I felt my ears bleeding. Unfortunately, with my enhanced hearing I couldn’t ignore the pain. I reflexively dropped my blade to cover my ears.

Could have been my worst mistake if I didn’t have several shadows that sacrificed themselves for my protection.
