With the arrival of a Great Mage, Claude was about to focus on his defense, but before he could even do that, he already saw a foot threatening to smash him to death:
He tried to raise his sword to block, but he was not fast enough. The foot landed directly on his chest, almost fully caving his ribcage.
His eyes trembled in pain while his whole body was slammed against the ground. That single kick alone caused a deep crater with a radius of twenty meters to appear.
The bandit camp has been ravaged beyond recognition due to the magic that the mages cast.
"Cough! Cough!"
Claude, who was still inside the crater, coughed out a mouthful of fresh blood. Even when fighting against the peak Senior Mages, he didn't receive any injury. The bandits weren't even able to touch him much less injure him.
But now, with the arrival of a Great Mage, he was injured for the first time, and that was just from a single kick!
