Once more, Yukimura was back to slicing down monsters like nobody's business. He struck down a single creature with a <<Sharp Nail>> and then countered the attack of another at his side with a <<Horizontal>>. That left four enemies to deal with. The swordsman grinned, but it was less a grin of pleasure and one more akin to a shark, eager to end a life. He wasn't left unscathed by the fight, that was for sure. There wasn't much room for finesse when you were busy trying to kill as many as possible in the shortest amount of time to protect somebody. As such, he was skimping on his defense - parrying, partially dodging, or just tanking all the hits thrown at him. It wasn't very good for his HP bar, to say the least. He wasn't dead yet, however. He still had 32%, give or take. Plenty of HP to left to take down the mobs, and then some.
Yukimura charged into one, burying his blade in its chest and turning around. He grabbed the blade in reverse grip and pulled it from the sparkling shards that used to be his enemy, activating a <<Rage Spike>> to end its life. He then transitioned into a <<Diagonal>> to kill the third coming for his flank. That left one more, didn't it?
The white swordsman glanced around. "Where...?" he muttered, blade at the ready. He scanned the area a few more times before glancing back at his partner. "Look out!" he called, activating <<Sprint>> to intercept his partner, grabbing her and activating the first <<Sword Skill>> to come to mind, <<Uppercut>>, and ending the enemy mid leap.
