Chapter 9. Awakening in Life (9)
The hunter's swing radius was reduced. He was also wielding the hammer with only one hand. Meanwhile, my skull was the hardest part of my skeleton, and now I had high blunt resistance.
Nevertheless, headbutting the hammer was a crazy move. Even I couldn't quite understand my actions. However, after fighting him three times in such a short period, my instincts told me this was the way to avoid dying.
"Ugh!"
Instead of falling, I leaped into his arms. Normally, he should've stepped back to maintain distance, but he was so startled by my headbutt that he stumbled.
Thud!
The hammer-wielder fell. I jumped toward him and plunged my dagger toward his neck.
Squish!
The hammer-wielder raised his arm to block the dagger. He merely intended to use his already broken arm as a shield, but the sharp dagger dug deep into his arm, causing him more pain.
"Argh!" he screamed.
He tensed his muscles, and the dagger got stuck in his muscles. He swung his arm backward.
Whoosh!
