"Switch!" Durandal roared as his dull-maroon-covered weapon — angled to block the Elite Gray Ateles Mortis's blow — dimmed, exploding in a burst of shockwave that boomed outwards and rustled the foliage violently.
But aside from that, nothing happened.
Gritting his teeth, the heavily injured young man could only jump back, glancing at Daru.
"You! Didn't I say switch?!"
Daru, however, couldn't respond for a while, stepping in to relieve his newly arrived comrade. Mountainsplitter has just come off cooldown.
Veiling Onimaru Kunitsuna in an eerie black aura, the tachi clashed with the cleaver legblade, the berserk growl of the huge monkey accompanying the chorus of steel.
Daru was sent skidding back a few centimeters, but so was the primate.
He held his own this time.
"What's a switch?" he asked, but before he got a verbal answer, he saw a blur rushing from beside him, seemingly having materialized out of thin air for a moment.
